Thanks, very great review ! I had the 2 person version of this tent, and I loved it. Unfortunately, after 3 years of intensive use, one of the poles cracked. But still, I would buy it again, because it is a great tent. I did seal all the seams, and I must have used it over 50 times over 3 years on bikepacking trips, and it never failed.
Thanks very much 😊🙏🏼 Yes it’s a great tent. I’ve enjoyed camping in it several times, although not as many as you. I’m glad it lasted so long for you. You can’t beat it, especially for the price! I hope you manage to find another pole or a new tent. All the best 😊👍🏼🏕️☀️
Hi. Congratulations on your trips. A fellow bike packer here, interested on the sealing process. Is it necessary to seal right after buying or you did after a few use n abuse when it started leaking may be? And how?
I've had mine for about 3 years now and I've been using it on my bike packing trips and absolutely no problems with it. I've not used it in winter only in the warmer seasons. Though it does feel like a bit of a cocoon and I'm thinking of getting a side opening tent instead some day.
I'm glad you've had a good experience with this tent. For the price, it's definitely a winner. Being a cocoon is quite nice sometimes, but yes I get the need for a tent with a side door. Over the years I'm happy to carry a little more weight in order to have a little more comfort. Have a great day and all the best 😊👍🏼⛺️
There are pros and cons for both. Both make very good tents and I prefer these materials to the now trendy silicone coated tents. The 20D version is usually a little more expensive but is more waterproof and lighter than the 210T version. However, the 210T will stretch less and require less adjustments (especially at first when it gets wet). I initially bought the 210T due to the price and I’ve had no issue. But…. If price wasn’t the issue I would have gone for the 20D version. I hope that helps. 😊👍🏼⛺️
Nice review! I bought this tent in forest green a few months ago. Love it! Have had a few really nice camps on the Gower Peninsula with it. It's fine for me at 5' 11". Cheers and Merry Christmas! J.
Thanks very much. Forest Green is the best colour for this tent. Glad to hear you had some good camps in it. It is a great little tent. All the best and Merry Christmas to you too 🏕️🎅🏽🎄👍🏼
Congratulations on the review. He talked about important points such as the zipper being too far to open and having to leave the tent. I just bought one. Do you find it uncomfortable to enter and leave the tent? Frm Brazil 🔰
Thank you very much 😊🙏🏼 Yes it is a little awkward to get in and out of the tent, unless you are quite flexible. However, it’s a great tent and the zipper distance is my only issue. I hope you’ll have many fun camps in your tent. Best wishes from Greece 😊🏕️👍🏼
I paid £118. It is a very good spec for that price, very light and dead easy to put up and roomy inside too ( I'm 5'11). If I could improve it I'd add an extra loop on the main spine at the back to improve height at the back ( which I actually did) and id have more solid material in the inner ...it's a bit drafty in cold weather. It's an inner first pitch which is rubbish if its raining but otherwise I love this tent.
Yep I agree, a little more height at the back would be great. It is a great tent, but yes only really a 3-season tent. Maybe if it had a snow skirt like on the Cloud up 2 it would be better in winter. All the best and merry Christmas 🏕️😊🎅🏽👍🏼
@@GreeklishOutdoors yes I sold my Durston xmid bc I preferred the cloud up1. But for winter I've got a helm 1 which is also excellent. All the best mate.
Yes, the main difference is the tent pole. On the original design the pole is forked at the entrance, but a single pole at the back. On the upgrade, the pole is forked at the rear too. This gives a little extra stability. There is a slight weight difference too (approx. 50 g). I hope that helps 😊👍🏼🏕️
It’s basically just smaller. The materials, quality, ease of pitch and use are the same. For me, as a taller person, the Cloud up 2 is more comfortable, as there is more usable space inside. I hope that helps 😊👍🏼🏕️
really like your review! Is the type of tent you are using 210T polyester? What do you think about its durability compared to the 20d type? To be honest, because of the small price difference, I was unsure which one to take.
Thank you, I’m happy you liked it 😊👍🏼 As I said to another viewer, there are pros and cons for both. The 20D version is usually a little more expensive but is more waterproof and lighter than the 210T version. However, the 210T will stretch less and require less adjustments (especially at first when it gets wet). I initially bought the 210T due to the price and I’ve had no issue. As far as durability, the 210T material is slightly thicker, but I’d say there’s not much in it. If price wasn’t an issue I would go for the 20D version. I hope that helps 😊👍🏼🏕️
Looks a great tent in honesty I quite like I'm thinking of getting this now as my tent is getting tatty I'd prefer not to use it for even 1 more camp out! 😂 thanks for video buddy ❤😊. Oh keep meaning to ask, you look like the kinda guy who would so my question is do you play your own guitar for the music in ya videos? Take care
Yeah it is a great tent. I’d get the Cloud up 2 if I was going to purchase again though. Similar price, more room and not much heavier. I know what you mean. In the past I’ve camped in tents with visible holes in it 😬 Cheers mate, glad you liked it. Yes I’ve played guitar for quite a while and sing, also learning the drums. This channel used to be just for my music, but it never got any attention, so 2 years ago I took down the music and changed the channel to what it is now. The outro music is always mine and sometimes I’ve had bits and pieces of my stuff in vids (including stuff I’ve mixed). All the best and have a fantastic Christmas 🎅🏽🎄👍🏼✊🏼
I’ve never had any problems with it leaking in the rain. Although I’ve never had it in heavy rain (only light-medium rain). Yes it is seam sealed. I hope that helps 😊👍🏼🏕️
Genuinely good deep time review Jono Two years of hard use under a hundred and still performing wow 🙏🏼 I’d definitely consider one Have a great festive season 🎄 ATB Simon 🤠🙏🏼🏔️
Thanks very much Simon. It’s a cracking little tent and has worn very well. Cheers mate! Have a very Merry Christmas. I hope you have a lovely time with the family 🎅🏽🎄🏕️😊

I got this used off mercari for pretty cheap, it works. Was a champ in the oregon rain and wind. Good tent for the price
Yep I agree, it is great value. I’m glad you’ve had a good experience with it too. All the best 😊👍🏼🏕️

very god product but ist to small I use Cloud Up 2, its small to :)🤣
@muderless oh dear 🤪 🌲👍🏼🏕️
I noticed on Amazon there’s a 210T polyester and a 20D nylon version of this tent. Any idea which is better?
There are pros and cons for both. Both make very good tents and I prefer these materials to the now trendy silicone coated tents. The 20D version is usually a little more expensive but is more waterproof and lighter than the 210T version.

Thanks i sub. 👍🏽
Awesome thank you!
Thanx! Is it just me or he looks kinda like Tom Cruise?
Thanks very much ☺️

It looks mosquito proof to me. :)
@@MrAuk929 Yes it’s definitely offers protection from mosquitoes 🦟 😊👍🏼

Hello, do you know what the difference between the standard and the upgraded version is?
Yes, the main difference is the tent pole. On the original design the pole is forked at the entrance, but a single pole at the back. On the upgrade, the pole is forked at the rear too. This gives a little extra stability. There is a slight weight difference too (approx. 50 g). I hope that helps 😊👍🏼🏕️
Nice cid, tie some cord to the zip and pull it inwards when you close up for the night. Might solve that issue :)
Great idea! Thanks very much. Have a nice evening 😊👍🏼✊🏼
This is beyond helpful - especially for beginners! Thank you so much! :)
I’m glad you found it helpful. Thanks for watching. 😊👍🏼🏕️
Very good review! Nice tent.
Thank you love 😊💛🎄
Love this tent. I would recommend for Asian people
It is a great tent 😊👍🏼🏕️
How does it compare with the Cloud up 2?
It’s basically just smaller. The materials, quality, ease of pitch and use are the same. For me, as a taller person, the Cloud up 2 is more comfortable, as there is more usable space inside. I hope that helps 😊👍🏼🏕️
Attach a cord to the zip?
Good idea! Thanks 👍🏼
As a short man (5.6) I would buy the OEX Bobcat 1 over the Naturehike.
What a lovely review! Thanks
Thank you very much 🙏🏼🏕️😊

What about heavy rains? Is it good sealed?

Genuinely good deep time review Jono
Two years of hard use under a hundred and still performing wow 🙏🏼
I’d definitely consider one
Have a great festive season 🎄
