Thanks for such a great review! My husband and I just purchased the Bessport 2 person for a few upcoming trips. It’s always nice to see a tent tested outside and not just set up in someone’s living room 😂👍 Update: we've taken it out on two trips so far, and it performed brilliantly. We had rain both trips, and this little tent held up fantastically and kept us nice and dry inside. The ventilation is great, too. Such a good option for those of us who want to get out there but don't have a huge budget to do so 🙌👍👍

Thanks Steve, yeah it’s not bad, it may be a bit tall for high winds but for a budget job it ticks some boxes.

Thanks for the very detailed report, I am currently buying the 1 person or 2 person tent. The tent is needed for my bike tours, so packing size and weight are important.

Tried this tent last weekend. It's ok for the money. I didnt get wet, it withstood the rain and wind. It's not "cut" properly though, the absides are hanging a bit with no chance of straighten them with the gear that comes with the tent. This is a bit of a downer. Still ok for the price.

Looks like a solid package but you never know until it goes through a rainstorm. Hope you get a chance to put it through the ringer

it's in the plans, Rob and I are trying to arrange a Dartmoor trip in the new year, and it always rains there!

I like the inside height and two sided porches. Looks like it would be alright in bad weather - do you think there’s enough guying for strong winds? The price is very good! I’m 6’ 4” so probably a tight fit for me...but that’s true for most lightweight tents! Look forward to seeing how you get on with it. Good review. Thanks. 👍

@CampLifeBushcraft

I’m not sure on the guying, however the outer clips to the inner which would help I’m sure.. I’ll find out in the future, hoping to take it out on Dartmoor. 😁

Whenever would happen, do you think 2 small adults could fit in this 1P tent. On amazon bessport writes 1P tent inner size is 100 cm wide. I can't really decide as I'd mostly use the tent (alone) just to sleep one night or two and not really for lounging inside it. Thanks for the review!

It’s a good question. I’ve had tent similar in the past and rain can be a problem. I think the only saving grace with this one is the speed you can pitch it. The clips make it very fast.

Inner pitching first is a downside, but I’m seeing the summer benefits of sleeping in just the inner. And the clips make getting the rain fly on very quick. That being said it’s a budget job so will never be perfect .. I will take it on Dartmoor with you if you bring something I can fit in to in an emergency 🤔😘

$60ish sounds about right. These $600 tents are insanity. It's nylon and plastic. I can't spend that much money on $30 of material.

What a shame it's not green
