Night CatCamping Tent for 1 2 Person Man Waterproof Backpacking Tents Easy Setup Lightweight for Hiking Backyard

Overall this is a great little tent for the money. Bought on sale for around £45 so not too expensive and would say it's worth it for this price. Used for a two night stay with both heavy rain and strong winds and didn't have any trouble. Easy to put up and pinned down with one person and easy to pack away. Took less than 5 minutes each to put up and take down on my own and I don't have much experience with tents.Only negative point I can make really is that it is a little on the small side. I'm 5'11 but pleasantly plump and feel like the 2 person one I bought would struggle to have a comfortable night with another person... but for olo camping the 2 man is a good option to have space for a bag etc.Material qualities good, looks pretty good and definitely keeps rain out and not noisy with the wind either.

A great wee tent for the money. It survived all the festival could throw at it from thunderstorms and hail to glorious sunshine. I'm only 5'5" but given all the kit required for a wet festival it was plenty big enough to fit everything in.Only slight negative was the lack of porch space for muddy boots but I knew that when I bought it.Easy to set up and takedown and super light to carry given it's size when set up and durability in crazy weather conditions.

I got this tent to test its capabilities for use as a one man tent for wild camping in the English Fells. I hope that people find my review informative and helpful.I will start with the pros:The tent itself pitches as an all-in-one so even in the worst of weather the inside will stay dry. There is no need for standing in the rain trying to pitch the inner as quick as possible while it takes in water. It pitches very easily and in minimal time. An easy task for one person to do.The fabric used for this tent gives you a rating of 3000mm Hydrostatic Head which is great for most of what the British weather can throw at you. The seams all come pre sealed so no worries about having to do that yourself either.This tent is a great colour for use when you don't want to be seen, the green really blends into the background and makes stealth camping a possibility.For a one man tent the space inside is generous however there is not much of a porch so if you take a lot of gear you will need to use this space inside to store it. With minimal gear you could squeeze to small people in.There are mesh doors on the inside to allow ventilation while stopping the nasty bugs getting in, this is great for the warmer weather to stop the build up of condensation which will result in the inside of the tent becoming wet. These doors also open on a T-Zip allowing greater flexibility when opening.The top of the tent is also mesh which means any rising heat can escape and is not collected on the top to form more condensation to drip on you.The exterior doors open separately and are split down the middle allowing you to have only one open if winds are bas, using the other on to provide shelter. They can both be pinned back to allow light and air into the tent. Again great for warmer weather to let the heat out and cool air in. When used in conjunction with the mesh inner doors this is a fantastic feature.There is a bit of a porch which is big enough to store your footwear.The tent itself is free-standing allowing you to move it once it is up. This is great fro finding the perfect pitch or if you have to change your position due to weather conditions. Or even if you ave a bad night because your first choice turned out to be not as flat as you thought it was.The tent is relatively lightweight coming in at only 2.4kg. There are lighter tents out there but they are considerably more expensive. (most of them)The construction of the tent shape is well designed and results in a very strong and sturdy tent. It can withstand some pretty strong winds without any issues. I have tested this in gale force and it was absolutely fine. Not had a chance to test it in windy conditions on the fells yet but i cant see any reason why it would not shine here.The floor is made of a very strong waterproof fabric which keeps you dry but also protects you from any debris underneath which you may have missed during your scout of the area to pitch up. It doesn't seem like you would have an issue with tearing or holes appearing in the base.Guy ropes are bright in colour and easy to see which is great for safety and for site camps. However you may consider switching these out for a stealth camp as they are very visible.The interior comes with one pocket for storage, maybe your mobile phone or keys. Something small that you might need to locate in a hurry, possibly a torch.The tent comes with a light loop pre-installed for hanging your lantern or torch which saves you time having to install one yourself.Now for the cons:The poles supplied for this tent are made from fibreglass, this does make them light but at a cost to strength and longevity. They are not as strong as aluminium poles and over time when putting up and taking down the pole ends start to split and chip away which will mean they will need to be replaced. Another point to consider is that during pitching in bad conditions when you are trying to get the tent up as quick as possible Fibreglass poles can snap easily. This doesn't affect the strength of the tent when pitched but the poles themselves can snap when pitching.The supplied pegs are very thing and not good enough for the job. They bend very easily even in soft ground and come back out of the ground too easily. Might be worth switching these out for a better set if purchasing this tent.Due to the design at the top of the tent, which is a waterproof sheet which clips over the very top of the tent to cover the ventilation mesh there are some issues. The cover provides air gaps between the mesh and the outside allowing the warm air to escape and reduce condensation. However in my opinion the sheet is just a little on the small side and doesn't come down the tent far enough. Under normal conditions this inst a problem, however when the weather turns nasty and the wind is blowing rain horizontally it does get in between the top cover and main tent through the ventilation holes. This causes puddles inside the tent. As mentioned it it only an issue in really bad wind and rain but something i definitely thought needed to be mentioned.On my tent where the loops for the guy ropes attach to the tent the stitching has come away a bit and the loops have become loose. I'm not sure if this is the same for all of them or if i just had a poor example. Easily fixable though with a needle and thread.The logo is very large and very obvious. I can see this being a problem for some people however it did not bother me too much. The only time it would be an issue for me is if i was going to be doing a camp where i didn't want to be seen as it really sticks out like a sore thumb. It is easy enough to put something over it though.Conclusion.Overall this is a great tent for the money. Spacious, strong, good waterproofing and great for almost any situation. It is not perfect but not many tents on the market are. I may consider it to be the best choice for very bad weather but for most trips in the UK this tent will do you well. There are not many tents in this price range that offer you what this one does.

It's nice tent, I used it only a couple of times, both times in heavy rain and it's 100% waterproof. Quick and easy to put up. Easy to find at night due to reflective lights which I found great. However, it only has 4 spaces for tent pegs a it's not windproof. It blew away on the hills of Snowdonia as soon as I took everything from inside and I had to chase it!! (had all the pegs in!) In addition, the wind is coming through inside and it's impossible to prevent it. Good job I have a warm sleeping bag. I recommend if you are looking for quick, simple, waterproof option but not the best for winter and not the greatest for heavy wind (it should have extra pegs).

2 zippable windows either side with the option of having it essentially open but with a bug net is a game changer. Had approx 10nhrs of summertime rain on it on onw trip and no water ingress and stayed dry. Fantastic 3 season tent, well made and unbelievable value in my opinion for what get. (Tent poles needed swapping for some decent, lightweight aluminium ones) but still going to award it 5 strars overall. Thumbs up.

Bought for my husband for a trip to France this summer. The weather over there was horrendous but the tent kept him nice & dry. It was put up in about 10minsv& easy to pack away. As he was on on a motorbike it needed to be compact which it was. Would recommend & value for money

I wrote the review below at end April when I bought this. Even then I doubted the tent poles were strong enough! Sure enough, less than 3 months later (only 3rd or 4th night of use), one of them has snapped, rendering the whole tent unusable. I wasn't even putting it up - it was already up, just sitting in my garden and snapped. Luckily I wasn't on a hillside!!----------------------I got the 2-man tent. It has two doors, one on each long side, not 1 as shown in pictures. The extra door is a good thing I think.The pictures also show the tent put up without any guy ropes, but the instructions say that you must use the guy ropes (which are included) - so i think that's a bit misleading. (Maybe if it's not windy you can get away with not using them, as I did for a test in my garden...)One thing i wonder about is the durability of the poles that give the tent its structure. Of course they're plastic, and as they bend a lot when you put the tent up, i think they won't last forever. I wonder if the company would supply replacement poles a few years down the line when necessary..?Overall i like this tent and had a good night's sleep! It wasn't raining though, so I can only hope there will be no leaks when it does.
