The BUDGET TENT you’ve NEVER HEARD OF!

hi ben, just love your dry, often cynical but honest way of reviewing gear etc. always gives me a chuckle anyway. best regards.

[@DaleyOutdoors]

Thanks mate, appreciate it 👍

[@Buffenmeyer]

Fun review. Had a bit of a giggle when you mentioned some of your personal phobias (keeping things contained & extra lighters). We all have our own unique tendencies... thanks for keep it real! 😊

[@DaleyOutdoors]

[@mattlast4093]

@10:37 Heaven ! other than the fact that you may wake up in a puddle ( havent got to the end of the vid yet) , just the seclusion of the woods, being under cover with supplies for the night... listening to the sounds of the rain and animals and trees

[@DaleyOutdoors]

There’s definitely something special about the sound of the rain. So relaxing 👍

[@Geoffrey454]

I don't like leaving things outside of my tent either. I like to be able to see everything. I don't like things hanging off my packs either as they just feel too exposed and not protected enough.

[@robharkness579]

Irn bru has been made to a secret recipe since 1901 apparently it has 32 flavours. Talk about confusing your taste buds, but being a Scot myself I absolutely love the stuff. Another great review/ video 👍🏻👍🏻

[@DaleyOutdoors]

Me too! 🙌

[@botulf4908]

I think it's 31 flavours now...they had to take the girders out 😀

[@steveb1972]

I do like the built-in awning. Quite a rarity for a small tent.

[@VixBlack]

I love the concept of this tent…if it was double walled I would certainly go and grab one. I always take a tarp to create what this tent does. I prefer to have my bits inside too.

[@pete7872]

Irn Bru, made in Scotland from girders. Cannae beat it! Secret recipe, tastes like nothing else in the world. PS. top tip, some plastic insulation from heavy duty electrical cables, I use this on the handles and ring on the lid of my pot, excellent heat insulation to stop your fingers getting burnt.

[@tommo9757]

If it's PVC, when it's exposed to excess heat it gives off Hydrogen Chloride. When this combines with water ( in your meal or in your lungs) it converts to Hydrochloric Acid!!!.

[@thesouthernwoodsmanuk216]

I always put my pack and boots inside the tent. I don't want them getting condensation. bugs or slugs on both. plus the boots dry out as well. I have seen a few videos on single wall tents and for me personally. I need a double walled tent hence deciding not getting lanshan pro. thanx buddy for the honest video on this tent. it will help alot of people. take care

[@DaleyOutdoors]

Thanks for watching mate 👍

[@willtierney2925]

Irn bru has a definite bubblegum type flavour- traditionally used as a hangover cure in Scotland!

[@DaleyOutdoors]

I’ll try it next time I need a cure 😆

[@madmarshman]

I had 4 days camping in wales this weekend, I draped my 3x3 tarp over the naturehike cloud peak 2, and put a couple of poles up at the front. It was a pain to get in and out of the tent, but I could sit under the awning and socialize with the group I was with during all the rain. Tried to scan the QR but my phone won't take it from the TV.

[@maggi666]

We had massive storms early September in Snowdonia, but we still enjoyed 10 our day camp. Although we unpitched the first dry morning we had, and dried every bit of the tent, it took two days for it to dry properly at home. As for living earwigs dropping from the pole sleeves in the house, alive 😱. It didnt put us off lol

[@MultigrainKevinOs]

Canadian here, first tried Irn bru last year after seeing it in the store. It's the kind of flavor you would expect for a medicine flavored for kids. No idea what it's supposed to taste like but it's okay 👍

[@simonward4520]

I am the same, like everything internal. I lost a tent which I did not clip on to outside coming down from Bamford edge having bailed, fell over and it came off without knowing! Lesson learned. I do like the awning, shame alot of tents don't offer a option like a foot print.

[@davidcann6021]

I like all my stuff in the tent if possible, if the bag does need to be in a vestibule I still wrap it in a tarp. Quite an interesting tent however I'm not why it needs two doors. It's good that it's free standing.

[@worstuserever]

I don't like single skin tents but wouldn't mind for a cheap, compact, contingency shelter on longer day hikes, although not this one because it just isn't long enough for me unfortunately. I don't like belongings exposed either, pack and shoes inside a vestibule at least. With packs I rarely hang anything outside as I'm paranoid it'll fall off unnoticed. If there's a compelling reason then I'll use multiple attachment points.

[@thegr8outdoors2022]

Great video again m8 maybe try testing. One Tigris Tangram tent it's a 2 Person trekking pole tent very similar to the Langsham 2 could be a good video comparing both 👍

[@Lee-70ish]

Cheers for that look at this interesting tent Mr D It is ultra tiny and imho would be great in the warmer months 90 quid is not too bad although glass poles are not my favourite. Out of curiosity and as im to lazy to look it up whats the HH? Single skin with a sewn in ground sheet IMHO never really works . So far ive found a teepee with a seperate bath tub floor to be the best for combating condensation. It doesnt stop it but lets it run down outside the bath tub so as long as you keep clear of the skin you keep dry. Again thanks for the review and putting up with a damp night for our benefit.

[@DaleyOutdoors]

Yes it’s pretty airtight with the doors closed. The single skin lanshans have a section to allow run off too so aren’t as bad 👍

[@steveb1972]

You could lower just one of the poles

[@wr1120]

I keep all my stuff inside the tent too for a simple reason. Whenever there is other people around in view of your tent and they see stuff, they might be tempted to snatch something useful if you're not around like going to town or taking a shower. Some gear is quite expensive and it takes less than a minute to open your tent, grab some stuff and close it again. And if caught what would happen anyway, it's not like they'll get 10 years of hard labour. If the tent is closed up and there is an inside tent closed up as well there is a psychological barrier to open that one up because someone might be in there that they can't see. The only exception I make is with my shoes because most people hate to use other people's used shoes. I'm not a distrustful person but I grew up in a village and live in a big city and I know how anonimity can change people's behaviour.

[@everyoneknowsadave3580]

I thought you would like that new pillow I know I like mine for the same reasons …. On awnings you can just lower one corner to let the water run off … I used to do that on my camper awning (when I had a camper ) and water never collected in it … like the tent color very stealthy … what did you think of the frogg toggs ?

The bobcat is an awesome tent. It's tiny but it has a vestibule and you can use the door as an awning. If you're over 6 foot you'll need to check dimensions and it's very sloppy so you sleep very close to the inner. Also the pole fights back, at least for the first 5 to 10 times.
