REVIEW TENTIPI SAFIR 5 CP TEEPEE TENT | SUPER TENT BUT FIVE PERSONS?

[@stefansvard8526]

Thanks for this thorough, exhaustive and balanced review. Dont need to know more. A lot of work must have gone in to this!

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Hi Stefan, Thank you for the kind words 🙏. Yes, a huge amount of work. I shot two days and failed. Did it again on the third day. 600 GB of 4K data and an iMac Pro form 2017 that is super but this was a bit too much. It took 18 hours of continuous editing in Final Cut Pro X. I tried a new way of editing with multi cam angles and it makes life a bit easier. I finished on Thursday morning at 03:22. I will never forget this day because when I got back in the living room it was like all the lights were on: the moon was that bright. And... I looked at my watch at 03:23, checked google and it was a full moon at exactly that moment. Karma! Should I make such an effort? Financially probably not because I'll never earn the time I spend on it but I love every bit of this shoot and my way of reviewing stuff. Your comment is priceless to me and you probably didn't realize when you wrote it. Thanks so much! Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs.

I've been going trough most of your reviews and your channel is insanely underrated. Your in depth reviews and presentation demeanour is simply outstanding!

Hi Sherry, Thank you so much 🙏. I wish I was bigger but what can I do.... It's a niche of a niche. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

In Cold temperatures it’s better to attach small carabiners to the Floor instead of using the toggles. It’s way quicker setup and you don’t get frostbite. I got the Safir9cp with Pro Floor, Fleece Floor, Mesh Inner Tent, Porch,4-dog UL-2 Stove. Love it and it withstands high winds.

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Nice tip Michael! And they will never break too. ! 😀 Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs.

Well done mate. Very informative. You have a new subscriber. Thanks for this exhaustive review. I’m a solo canoe camper with a wee dog. This tent is the one I’ll be buying this year.

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Hi John, Sorry for the late reply... traveling. You are most welcome 😄. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

[@simonakguthrie2048]

Great video. Thanks for making these.. I’m 183cm and have been considering neither the 5 or the 7… I want to comfortably stand up so the 7 is the way to go. Thanks heaps for your work!!

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Thank you so much 🙏 Simon. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

[@woodnugget1301]

Great review I’ve been looking at the Safir for some time now and could never decide on the 5 or 7 but after this review it’s made my mind up. Il be having a number 5 as I’m on my own most of the time other than a dog. But for the occasional times a guest comes with me the 5 is still a great option for me plus the winnerwell stove medium would f it the bill perfectly. So thanks for the time you put into this video it’s been really helpful in me making a choice thanks Ian 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👍

Big smile on my face! Cheers, Gijs

Hi Stanley, My pleasure ;-). Cheers, Gijs

[@dalecarlia_jakt2519]

You actually made me buy one of those tents . I bought a 7cp and i use it all the time. most expensive and best tent i have ever bought i love it. Love from Sweden :D

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Hi Dale, Thanks for the nice comment and sharing your thoughts and experience! Sweden is a great place! Enjoy the tent, the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

[@PatrickSmeaton]

Wow! Incredibly well done and in-depth review.

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Hi Patrick, Thanks for the nice comment 👍😊! Enjoy the outdoors and stay safe! Regards, Gijs

[@Andre-yd1ed]

You are my favorite outdoor gear reviewer!!!

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Wow, thanks Andre! I'll try to do more in 2024. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Happy 2024!! Cheers, Gijs

[@raymondlogister6828]

Great video Gijs. I also look here in the Netherlands to Safir 5 CP, and i agree with you. It is a fantastic tent, but when you are taller ( i am 180 cm) this tent is not ideal. Go for the 7 CP you have more space in the height. But i stay with my Oztent RV.

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Hi Raymond, Thanks for the compliment! OZtent.... did you bay it online or is there a distributer/retailer in NL. I am curious 🤗 Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs.

[@leugriseus2109]

Salut à toi l’aventurier 😉, c’est quoi ton lit de camp :marque et model ? Merci à toi . A bientôt.

[@northernswedenstories1028]

Always wanted one of these for family fjäll trips. Weight is ok if you are at least 3-4. Very expensive though but clearly very well made

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

They last pretty long so price is worth it in the end. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

[@marsa74]

Really an impressive and valuable review 😊. Thanks very much

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Thanks for the nice comment! Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

[@Jodyphotograph]

great review! thank you. one question ... Did you find that the floor was getting wet from underneath? like in your review of the 2 cp.

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Hi Mahon, Not really but that can be because maybe different circumstances... Condensation between floor and a different sleeping pad for example. Do have one and suffer from a wet floor? Cheers, Gijs

[@Jodyphotograph]

@@OutdoorguruGearReviews No I don't have one, I'm considering buying one so thats why I asked. I live in Ireland where the ground is pretty much moist all year round. maybe a simple footprint will solve any possible issues

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Or just a construction piece of plastic you find in a DIY store. Stamp a few rings in it and you are good to go.

[@hakanmelinberg]

Great review as always !

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Thanks Håkan! 😀 Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs.

Good one! Thanks from Sweden.

Hi Patrik, Thank you for the very kind words. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

[@mingueyox]

Hey Gijs, I am considering buying a Safir CP9 for off-grid living (while restoring a derelict old cottage). As this would mean permanently living in the tent, I am considering building a wooden platform as flooring. I would like to build it totally enclosed within the tent. Is tentipi giving instruction on how to integrate a platform with their tent? Do you think the skirt and guyline would be long enough to accommodate the extra height of the platform? Many thanks for your help and the videos!!!

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

I think I know somebody who has this. I’ll get back to you🙏

[@mingueyox]

@@OutdoorguruGearReviews Thank you so much Gijs 👍

[@beatleapostle]

I usually use all of the guide lines on my Tentipi because it makes the interior more roomy.

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

True! Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

[@woodnugget1301]

Plus I’m similar height to yourself so the 5 is great 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@bonilsson3161]

I find tentipis stove to be overkill, and way too heavy, for the tentipi nr 5. In the nr 7 and 9 its a great stove though. I use a 4-dog stove thats only 4,5 kg in the nr 5, thats a good size but there are some winnerwell stoves and some from seek outside is probably quite good too.

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Fully Agree Bo. I will check the 4-dog. I don't know that one (yet) 😀 Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs.

[@sheilajoseph9953]

Looks like asuper tent. Thankyou for your review.

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

You are most welcome Sheila. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs.

[@onnonugteren2935]

Ah Sahara sand ja dat was slechts een paar dagen geleden. :-) snel op het internet gezet deze film. wow. :-) Wat ik de hele tijd dacht... wanneer gaat hij nou die centrale stok die natuurlijk wegzakt eerst versterken, er iets onder zetten voordat je alles spant. :-) mooie tent verder en niks voor mij en te klein inderdaad met een kachel. Ook ben ik niet voor hout-stook wegens de zware milieubelasting. Ik heb ook wat meer info gegeven bij de zonnecel video zie daar. Groet weer, Onno.

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

😀 Groet terug Onno. Houtstook snap ik volkomen. Meer ook een ding voor de koude dagen dan wanneer er sahara zand door de lucht vliegt. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs.

[@lweleven3423]

I do fancy a tipi to support my small camper travels , but I don’t think I’d buy one without a sealed ground sheet, bitten by creepy crawlies last time I used a ground sheet like this 😂

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Welcome to nature 😉. Don't worry too much, they don't get in that easy. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

[@lweleven3423]

@@OutdoorguruGearReviews oh they do 😂 maybe I’m tasty 😂 I just got rid of a tent that had a ground sheet but wasn’t fastened only a few toggles around the edges I have found 1 tipi that I’d like to look at that does . So fingers crossed

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Maybe you are 😉. But I there are better floors available than the one from tentipi. Or maybe use a inner tent...

[@simonsharp9162]

Just don't take one to Scotland, you'll get eaten alive !

Hi Simon, Why? Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
