Ultralight 2 Person Backpacking, 4LB Portable 20D Waterproof Nylon Camping, 3 Season Hiking Trekking Tent with 7001 Aluminum Poles

I bought this for a backpacking trip in the Linville Gorge. For the price, weight, & quality, you can't beat it! I did have to purchase a separate footprint. The winds were howling on our first night of camping! I thought I was going to be blown off the side of the mountain! The top of my tent swayed side to side ALL night, but NEVER collapsed. I was honestly expecting it to do so. To my surprise, it held up pretty well!!! I did have all my guy lines set up. I have not tested it in rainy weather yet, so not sure if it will stay dry. Quality is almost top notch like the expensive brands. It wasn't too complicated to set up if you have experience with tent set up. The top middle section was a little tricky to set up, but I used common sense and figured it out. Other than that, I have no complaints! Do yourself a favor and BUY IT!!!

Overall great value and lightweight. Went camping with this tent in cold and rainy weather without any leaks or issues with water or wind coming into the tent.Was not the easiest tent to set up though, as I tried setting it up by myself for an hour and a half before a friend was able to give me a hand and hold the other side as the tent won’t stand up unless you were pulling and holding tension from both sides when putting it into the ground. Once we figured it out, it was very easy and sturdy and takedown was very easy, but I definitely won’t be bringing this tent with me on any solo camping trips or hiking trips.

Setting this tent up was pretty easy, considering it had no instructions, but it was simple enough for an average person to figure out. Without tent stakes I found that the two sides with the doors are quite free to blow around, making for a fairly annoying night in any kind of wind, but pulled taught it works quite well. The tent stakes themselves are very lightweight, but strong enough to stake if using a modicum of care.The all-in-one primary support poles are interesting, but it's a feature that has both pros and cons. The pro is that its simple to assemble because all you have are two poles. One that has the primary structure, and another short pole to expand the doorway parts and give it more structure. It even comes with a emergency repair tube to slide onto any pole that might break. My issue, is that considering that the primary pole is all one piece, you're possibly going to have to cut or untie the retention shock cord that keeps the poles together in order to get it on. I'd probably just try to use tape and a stick if it came to that before having a bunch of loose poles.I'm approximately 6'2" in height, and there is barely enough room for me to not hit the top or bottom of the tent laying down, which means with a sleeping bag/pillow or anything else, I'll probably hit. Also, even like that, you have to be very very close to the 2nd person, and there might not be room for two sleeping pads. I am okay with this since I want it to be a single person tent, and it can accommodate two in an emergency, but as a single person tent laying slightly diagonal, it's great. I'm a fairly novice backpacker and this weighs much less than my other tent, and asymmetrical vs symmetrical tents are a topic of wide debate. This symmetrical (rectangular) footprint is much easier to lay down in the place you want and also much easier to fold when storing. Putting the poles/stakes/rain cover on the partially folded tent and then rolling it up makes for a very easy package that slides without much effort into the storage bag, which is oversized and much better than a lot I've seen. There are no compression straps for storage anywhere, but I really don't see that they are needed at all.Overall this tent cost about twice as much as my original backpacking tent. It has thinner floor material, so I might recommend a footprint, and it doesn't include a tent repair kit. However, it's much, much lighter, much easier to put together, disassemble, and roll up. Hands down this is going to replace my old tent for backpacking. Internal storage is also generous!

This tent is really nice and on first impression I was very impressed with the quality of the tent. It is well built and made of quality materials. It is also pretty light and I was impressed by that as well. I was also impressed with the cool geo-styled design and appearance the tent has when put together. There is plenty enough space inside for 2 people and I have accessorize mine with a string of LED lights which are powered with a cellphone recharge power block. The tent really keeps out the wind and rain and once secured it helps to maintain a consistent interior temperature.

No instructions were provided and I’m not a tent savvy person 🥴

This is a super light tent. It only weighs about 4 lb. Great for backpacking. Easy to set up. Nice waterproof material. Great size for one person and still weren't for gear. Comfortable to sleep in. Great value for the money.

The Lavitis ultralight 2 person backpacking tent is a lot nicer than I was expecting, but there are some quirks. This tent is in the hiking/backpacking category, it weighs in at 4lbs according to the manufacturer's listing, the support poles are aluminum and of decent construction, it sets up fast the second time forward because it doesn't come with instructions of any kind (which is why I posted so many pictures, in an effort to spare you from my initial grief), it has some serious ventilation, it seems to have very similar features to the much more expensive competitors (I'm an avid outdoorsman, trust me when I say that the bigger brands are almost hilariously more expensive). Taking into account the price jump from this tent to a more well known option, I'd say this tent is priced fairly but it's close to overpriced. Overall, I'm happy with this tent and I plan on using the heck out of it...so why 4 stars? This tent is simple to build but comes with no instructions, the tent is advertised as being able to occupy 2 but is in my opinion a better 1 person tent referring to adults, the floor material is very thin and feels like it could get torn up easily (I just lay a tarp down, and then build the tent over said tarpaulin) and with the aluminum pole frame, you have to stretch the tent and arch the poles to what almost seems like the breaking point (it'll feel like it's going to break, but if you go slow, and a little further, it'll go together just fine). This tent has a lot going for it, and I have no regrets getting it.
