Highlander Blackthorn 1 Person Tent – Lightweight & Waterproof. 4 Season Tent for 1 Person. Quick And Easy Pitch Ultra Low-Profile for Hiking, Fishing, Cyclists & Backpacking

I took it hiking in Dartmoor for 3 night in pretty rough weather.Set up was super simple.Tent is light and small.Poles look to be a bit weak - but held in 70km gusts.It was raining hard each night and totally dry inside.Size wise - I am 6ft4 and inside was large enough for me to be comfy and keep important supplies close.Its quite low and I couldn't sit comfortably in the door way.For the price its a good tent, Only thing holding it back is the poles, they made me worry a bit in the high wind.

positives: lightweight, easy to assemble, good quality, cheapnegatives: Small, hardly any porch, two layers that can't really be connected when folded up as you need to fit the poles into the inner layer. So not suitable for wet and windy conditions as the inner will get soaking wet before you have a chance to out on the outer layer.As a cheap, lightweight tent for overnight solo camping in good weather conditions, its perfectly acceptable. Just make sure you buy a bed pad that fits as space inside is very limited.

I see what people mean about the tent poles breaking, they do feel very fragile, but as long as you don’t use undue force they work just fine, only used it once so far though so we shall see.The inside is very tight, I’m a slender 6’2” inch man and it’s very cozy but if you are claustrophobic you might not like this, it’s a bit miserable to use in the rain because there is no room to sit down and take your boots off unless you are very flexible like me, you are either in this tent, getting out, or outside of the tent, there isn’t much headroom to sit in this.I wish the door flap could be held open somehow, I’m going to add a magnet to try and keep it open.

Set it up in my house and got in it. Ah this is great I thought. Off I went to Kinder scout in the peak district. Set up tent, ground mat (olive green NATO) would not fit inside so i put it under it. Put in my sleeping bag. Off to the pub, came back in the dark and got inside, fetal position and passed out. Woke up at 3AM feeling dead all down the side I was laying on so i rolled onto my back. My feet were pressing on the bottom of the tent on both layers so I moved up the tent. Now my face is bulging through the top... So I get in the middle still on my back, my feet are touching the outer layer and my forehead is touching the top... So I had to spend all night alternating from one side to the other crunched up... Then walk up kinder scout and down jacobs ladder the next day on 3 hours sleep. Ruined the entire trip.Now you probably think I am some kind of giant but no I am only 5 foot 9.Now on the plus side! It was not that warm being mid October and it did rain all night but I didn't get wet and was warm.OK if you can sleep on your side in the fetal position all night.

I am just back home from 9 days in the west highland way, this tent was used in the wettest week in scotland so far this year, in the most remote parts of the land, 340m up in the great glen pass through to glen nevis in gale force winds.The tent held up the whole journey with only 4 drops of condensation.. for £79 for the XL size (me being 6’5) i cannot recommend this anymore! Its so easy to assemble even with a swarm of midges eating you, you can take it down in minutes in the pouring rain, its a 1 person tent so for size, it is what it is, it fit me and my bag of stuff!Great value and couldnt fault it!Recommend!

Ok little tentSizeReally small as you can imagine, you will have to be very inventive when it comes to storage as the tent will only hold you and that it. You don’t have any room not even to take a layer on/off ect while in the tent itself. I did find that if you fold a ground sheet you can store any belonging around the out side of the tent.Set-upI had the tent set-up in around 10min; you can’t go wrong as it’s so simple and small plus as it’s so lightweight and compacted you don’t really notice the extra weight in your bag.QualityNot too bad. the poles don’t seem that well made, just don’t be too heavy handed and you should be fine. My only frustration it that the top sheet doesn’t sit flush on the base, but didn’t experience any problems from it.

If you're claustrophobic or like lots of room in your tent this really isn't for you. If you need something lightweight that'll keep you dry then it's perfect. I did a 3 day motorcycle tour and I needed something that would easily fit on the bike.To give you an idea, I'm 6ft & 18 stone and managed to sleep in this on a single air mattress. I managed to get a few bits inside with me and the rest of my kit fitted under the outer sheet.Really quick to put up/pack away, and although initially quite sceptical I found it to be quite sturdy.Not bad at all for the price.

Good compact tent, low profile and match MTP well. I'm 5'9 and only jsut fit in so anyone 5'10+ I wouldn't say this is for you. Enough room to leave boots in the "pourch" type area. Easily to set up. Light weight. Overall good tent.
