Customer Review

I bought this tent for my last trekking holiday, the tent was full two weeks in operation.
I had also previously read other customer reviews but hoped that I have a little more luck with my copy ...

Think again! Unfortunately, it has been raining the first day of vacation, which have not endured the two side zips the awning. After closer inspection the rainwater through the seams of the zippers seemed to penetrate. This was confirmed then by the fact that I, after the tent was once dried, these seams have pasted over with duct tape ... Then here came out of water a, because the seams "sealed" were.

Another poor planning is that there is no "gutter" above the zippers from the outside. When you open the tent, all that water now flows that has collected on the tight outer skin inside the awning.

During the two weeks was a little windy in only one night, what the linkage to tempted to break right. Here I would also have expected more.

Furthermore, even an eyelet of the suspension of the inner tent demolished (seams are loose) and touched a rubber grommet for herring.

On the positive side, the division of the tent. The inner tent offers enough space for two, and the awning can insinuate anything and (theoretically) from rain protect what one has on such a tour there. If you like yourself, one finds (in theory) to protect against wind and weather to fourth place in this tent.

The tent is easy to assemble and disassemble and store in the supplied bag. Compression straps were still desirable here.

Thought along, manufacturers have in the separate base film of the awning. It provides primary protection against moisture from below and thanks to the surrounding Palatinate (tub) protection against water that flows in from the side. Unfortunately, this great pan mold led thanks to the leaking zips to the fact that the water could collect here during prolonged rain and not drain.

All in all I give this product two star. But this also only for the above division. The processing is a disaster. Although it is quite favorable, one should have expected already that you at least the first few weeks remain dry in the tent. The various suspensions and items should not even after 10 times up and dismantling bless the temporal. I guess the tent is suitable for a weekend on nem Festival when it is not raining (After that you can then confidently leave probably there) or a longer stay at a beach in southern Europe.

I have the tent yesterday, thanks to the excellent exchange policy from Amazon, sent back and get my money Refundable.
