Bro it's rain not acid

This is what a tent review should be. Real life application. Nice work man!

I watched this video a couple of years ago. I then purchased the 2 person version and stayed in it for 90 nights on a euro bike tour. Excellent tent. Thanks for your entertaining review.

I just bought it and was figuring out how to assemble it, then I found your video. Thanks, I'll be going camping soon!

Ideal for the price. I've been looking for a budget 1 man tent for my mate here in the UK and I've just found this - the better one yet. Great demo buddy. I enjoyed that. All the best. Mark (England)

deserved a like for the effort good review as well !

Thanks for the video, I just bought it and it helped to see how it's assembled.

You worked hard to examine the tent. Thank you very much for your effort.

Thanks for the effort. Good job man.

Best review ever

Love this ! Just got the same tent but 3 man I can say this is how I rolled around putting the tent up before it got dark 😂 ❤

Thanks. This might be just the thing I was looking for since I trek solo. Weight being the main issue.

I juts bought this tent, to use during my hike of the South Downs Way. So far, only spent one night in it (to test it out). Weight is competitive. Don't know that I would call it ultralight, but at this price point, and for those of us in a pinch, it works (I shaved almost 500 grams compared to the tent I used last year on the SDW). Price is incredible if you ask me. Agree that the durability of the materials might be a constant doubt, and also the finish in some of the seams isn't great, but if you want to try a smaller tent, or can't stretch that far with your budget, it's great. Space is so-so, leaning towards small, definitely an acquired taste, and helps if you're willing to leave the pack outside (you will have to). Pegs are good, comparable to MSR Needle. Personally I will use four of them (on the corners), and add 6 v-pegs (for guy lines, vestibule and rear) I do wish the webbing straps that attach the top of the fly (head end) were the same as the bottom ones (foot end), or viceversa; that way you just have to 'learn' one way, and not have to remind yourself about clipping the G hook or whatnot. One nifty trick it has (and should be easy to replicate as a hack on other tents) is the bottom corner of the door is attached with some cord to the zip puller, so that when you pull the zip upwards to open the door, it 'travels' up, like a curtain, instead of dangling down on the floor. Hope it'll do me proud on the SDW in 10 days time... PS: I also think I will end up buying the footprint...

i have the 2 man version of this and also the 3man tunnel version i purchased the 2 man as it is free standing , the 2 man is defiantly worth the extra 700g for the comfort and convenience of being able to keep all you gear inside , good luck with your trip and i hope you have a great time , ps the footprint is defiantly worth having even if you are just using a cheap poundland tarp .

good luck with you channel . and happy and safe travels from the uk

Really enjoyed your review of that decathlon tent a real world review thank you for sharing

Nice little, tent cheap and looks fairly good quality. The only problems with these type of tents is that I f the rain had come a couple of minutes later, the inside would have been soaked as it's inner pitch first. The other thing is that it's lightweight, yes, but this makes it rather flimsy, so you'll probably need a footprint to avoid damaging the groundsheet. This will add another 200grams of weight, making the 1300 grams into 1500 grams. I have a Wild Country Helm 1, at around 1870 grams. It's heavier yes, but bombproof, pitches all in one and no need for the extra footprint. Also only £40 more than this one. Thanks.

Quechua and decatlon is always the best brand

Nice tent

Hey Bro, great vídeo! I have a question, about the condesation, specially when you put your backpack outside, on the footprint and lean against the wall

Hey Paul. I bought this tent and have used it twice now. Not in the rain yet but I’m sure I will soon. I also purchased the foot print that allows you to put up the rain fly without the inner. I’m gonna be taking it into the Welsh mountains in July. Like you I choose for its weight & pack size. How are you getting with yours ? Is it still as good as you first thought …

how did decathlon make a better ultralight tent than most the top brands out here and 400grams lighter than most the competitors as well!

Still happy with it. Would you recommend it for bike packing?

Would a 64cm wide mat fit inside?

Love my saffie bros

In France, we have ageing nuclear power stations and no oil. Fortunately, the engineers at Décathlon are raising the bar.

Salut! Ya t'il un moyen de la monter directement avec la doublure externe, histoire de ne pas mouiller l'intérieur ?

Привет! Да можно поставить каркас и на него установить внешний тент. Потом чтобы поставить внутреннюю палатку надо будет в маленьком пространстве осторожно действовать. Но если будет возможность поднять каркас с тентом, то сделать это будет намного проще.

As tents go, looks a bit messy/complicated to set up in a hurry. Nice review though🙂 I guess that's what reviews are for, to buy or not to buy.

Howzit China? I was wondering how you would think this tent would work for a 186cm person? You seemed to have more than 7cm of margin with ya but I've seen other reviews saying that over 6'/181cm is a no go... thanks bru

Ok, this video shows the problem of this tent - setting it up in the rain isn’t fun, because you need to set up the inner tent first, exposed to the elements... I prefer those tents where the inner and outer tent are set up as one piece at the same time.

@@paulcreux3929 I read about that but I image it still will be quite tricky, also another part (weight) to carry around. Currently I'm more leaning towards the Trek 900 Ultralight 2... Sure, it's a bit heavier (1.75kg) and 2 persons (but I found that this is great at rainy days, more space to get changed, to store stuff etc.). And it's not self-standing which might be the biggest problem (however, I never had this problem in reality). Currently I have the (much cheaper and with 3.5kg very heavy) but very similar Forclaz 2 (not sold anymore, it looks like this: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y4Fqlc-zgMyviJs.html) and it was always great to set up in the rain. While others were swearing while setting up their tent and getting everything wet, I never had any of these problems, it was always quick and easy. But maybe I also just have bad luck and other people don't need to set up their tents too often at rainy days :D

@@DerKatzeSonne Space is limited in the one person especially if you want your stuff inside If you’re hiking with another person the two person is going to shine because you’ll be able to share it’s weight. 1.75kgs is already a fairly light tent in my opinion and would probably be a good option for the application you describe. I agree with you, being able to set up dry in the wet is a great feature in a tent.

I'm 202cm (6.6ft) tall and i do fit in that tent. Of course it's not that comfortable as sleeping in a bed, but thats normally the case while camping. My feet do have contact with the fabric, also headroom isn't great; but for such little money, there are no lightweight alternatives in my eyes, except tarps/hammocks.

Yet another poorly designed tent - clearly shown in this video - inner first setup, useless in bad weather!!
