REVIEW TENTIPI SAFIR 7 CP TIPI TENT AND G-STOVE STOVE | SUPER COMBI!

This review is about the Tentipi Safir 7 CP, a Swedish family teepee and sort of a lightweight tent. And since I'm crazy about the concept of teepees, a review of the tipi that fits a stove is definitely in place! And I test the G-Stove on the go. Enjoy!

This video helped me greatly in my decision to purchase a Safir 7 and a G Stove. We are a couple who would like to use cots on formal sites, and sleeping mats on wild camps, and be able to properly cook. I was concerned that the Safir 7 might not be big enough for us to live and move around comfortably-I was really worried that it might be too cramped, and so I was mainly considering a Safir 9. Eventually, after much asking around, I decided to order a 7. Let me tell you-if, like me, you are coming from a standard 2 person tent to a Safir 7, you will be amazed at the sheer scale of the thing! It is a MASSIVE upgrade. More like a small bothy, but still very cosy. Total luxury! Plenty of room for up to four adults to move around without pressing against the tent walls, and can easily sit up in a chair. Tons of room for 2 people, especially if we were to use lower cots or sleeping mats. The headroom height is superb-the videos, as good as this one is, never communicate the size and roominess of these tents. When you see one in person, you’ll be amazed. Haven’t slept in it yet, but considering the size of the 7, I am SO GLAD I never went for the 9. It would be way too large and empty feeling. The manufacturer advises you to set up the tent and soak it before using. Aye, good luck! We literally threw buckets of water at it for nearly an hour-not a drop soaked in! It all beaded and ran right off like a duck’s back! Will update after the weekend, but right now, I am completely in love. Update soon UPDATE: We took our Safir 7 out for a trial night last weekend, with cots and a G Stove. A few thoughts: 1) Practice setting up the pegs. We have still to get the hang of this, but on our third or so try, managed to get it (mostly) right. Even very minor slopes and contours will alter where to peg out the tent. Our door panel was a little too loose, and we are also struggling to get the pole straight in the middle. It always seems to be just a little off. 2) The floor is tricky to get perfect too. We had certain sides that were too high, or too low. We have the pro-floor, and it took us a good while to set it up properly. Still unsure how to properly attach it to the door area. 3) We were hit by extremely high winds- the loose door panel came unhitched from its peg, and the wind blew in underneath the pro-floor, letting in big draughts and generally causing a bit of chaos. Subsequently I think we lost quite a lot of heat throughout the night. Although I already knew this, the pro-floor needs to be: Secured and attached all the way round; Pulled tight via the outer lower straps; Folded over the green outer flaps and; Weighed down, preferably all the way round the tent, to prevent flapping, blasts of wind and heat loss. 4) Despite the gale winds, the tipi was largely secure. It also rained for most of the night, and we were absolutely delighted to never experience a drier tent. However: because the stove pipe doesn’t secure tightly around a tent protector, you will get small drops of rain that come vertically into the tent. These usually landed on the stove, evaporating immediately. They were also tiny and inconsequential. 5) We kept the G Stove running all night, which burned approximately one bag of wood (oak). The normal size G Stove is just right for the Safir 7-I think that it would be too cool for a size 9 in Winter. We were sleeping on cots, and it was definitely noticeably cooler the lower you sit in the tent, and the further you are from the stove. However, it is generally very cosy, and far more comfortable than a normal, unheated tent. You will still need a good sleeping mat, and a good three season sleeping bag for winter, though. But there is one thing that I cannot exaggerate enough: This tent feels like your own little holiday home. It’s so cosy at night, and genuinely beautiful once it’s set up, glowing with a lamp inside. I absolutely love it. I’ll come back with some more thoughts in future, and I am considering making my own in-depth video. Hope this has been helpful to someone!

[@jeremyjurksztowicz6278]

Thanks for this! I too am undecided between the two sizes. May I ask if a double wide mattress fits comfortably away from the centre pole/fire? I sleep with my wife on a 132cm wide air mattress and wondered if it would be claustrophobic on the side next to the tent wall if I tried to keep some space away from the centre firebox, which may throw off sparks. Regards and happy camping!

Mooie uitgebreide review! Wij waren vorig jaar ook in Zweden, en we hebben je zelfs op de snelweg nog ingehaald in NL of Duitsland! Na 1 prima vakantie in DK en Zweden in een Spatz Wigwam 5 BTC overwegen wij nu ook de Safir 7 of 9 voor wat extra ruimte. Aangezien ik 192cm ben spreekt de 9 ons iets meer aan. ICM de grootste luifel en de bysonil footprint.

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Sorry voor mijn wat late reactie. Ik heb je comment helemaal over het hoofd gezien. Waar kwam je ons tegen? En met hoeveel ben je? De 7 vind ik een mooie maat, de 9 al snel erg groot maar ja... 169 cm 😋. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

[@mcbiker77]

@@OutdoorguruGearReviews We haalden je in ergens op een snelweg. Ik denk het in Duitsland was, geen idee meer waar precies. Wij zijn met zijn 3-en. Bij Moosecamp hebben we de 7 in de lichte variant en 9 Safir bewonderd. De 7 geeft niet eens zo heel veel meer ruimte dan onze Wigwam 5, en geeft ook iets minder sta-ruimte dan de 9. Maar we blijven nog even twijfelen 🙂 De meerprijs en het iets hogere gewicht van de 9 zijn te overzien, het ruimtecomfort doet me meer die kant op bewegen. De Bach WickiUp5 /Spatz Wigwam 5, ga je die ook nog eens reviewen? Ik ben benieuwd naar je oordeel daarover. Lichte, redelijk ruime familietent waar ik niet snel een concurrent voor zie, zeker niet in BTC materiaal.

[@DanielAndersen147]

Thanks for a nice video, Outdoorguru! Is the size 7 big enough for a family of 6 persons? Or would it be more comfortable getting the size 9 instead?

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

No, I would go for the 9. You need the extra space with 6.

Thank you for this review - it's one of - (perhaps the?) - best I've seen on the Tentipi Safari 7. After months of dithering over whether to get a Tentipi or a bell tent, I have just bought the Safari 7, together with the pro floor and clothes hanger. Now I am trying to decide which stove to get. I think I've decided on the Winnerwell Woodlander View Medium, for the combination of its flexibility (heating, cooking, portability), build quality, weight, the wide range of cooking accessories, and the ambience created by the two glass sides. I see you have reviewed this stove favourably for the Safari 5 tent (also helpful, thank you). My question is, do you have any idea how many additional pipe sections I will need to buy to safely clear the top of the Safari 7? (I have noted the need for a double or triple-walled protector). I have not been able to find this information from any site or review I've looked at so far and was wondering whether you just knew?! (I estimate it's likely to be 3 or maybe 4). Wishing you all the best!

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Hi Lou, Sorry for the late reply but it has been busy and the Christdays 😉. The Safir is 270 cm heigh if I remember correctly. The pipe of the stove is 146 cm in total plus the height of the stove so you probably need 4. If you want to make sure: call Sander from moosecampwebshop.nl. He is the guy behind Tentipi and Winnerwell in The Netherlands. Give him my regards. Thanks for the compliments👍. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

[@kevinallen4604]

Great review as usual. I’ve camped with a Robens Klondike, even put it on a trailer on an ebike . Really like the shape for camping, but at over 16kg not really bike camping tent without a ebike and trailer, I don’t really want to use a trailer or ebike all the time. Some of the tentipi range like onyx lite are just about usable weight wise on a bike although still on the heavy side. The thing is you could still hide a couple of bikes in them for days hiking or sightseeing etc. So as you are a man of infinite knowledge would you consider using one on a bike or often in my case an ice sprint trike. Also the lite version loses the cotton advantage how does that compare? Thanks Kev

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Hi Kevin, Wow... "a man of infinite knowledge"... really I don't know everything 🙃. But I would not use a 7CP on a bike or ice sprint trike. Maybe with a trailer but... no. Yes, not cotton loses a lot of advantages except space.... so hiding would still be possible. And I have a old not cotton Helsport tipi and we use that one quite often when weight is an issue... So rethink and come back to me with more questions. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe!

[@Pisceanboi]

Great review - very well done, and thank you. As a potential Tentipi owner, doing his research, snakes, poisonous spiders and bull ants getting in to a tent are a potential issue. As I understand it, the optional full inner fixes this issue, but of course with extra expense and removing a little of the room inside the tent. Have you either used or tried one with an inner, and approximately how much room do you loose? Appreciate your thoughts; I am not able to see one before taking the plunge, so your review and comments are greatly appreciated! Many thanks :-)

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Dear John, Yes, I have seen them and been in them with a full inner tent and space is limited a bit. The tent stays fully functional with the stove though and in winter the tent is a bit warmer ;-). If bugs and snakes is a real issue I would go for the inner tent but with the normal floor in we hardly have ant in the tent. The floor sides are quite high. Hope this helps. Cheers, Gijs

[@Pisceanboi]

[@Pisceanboi]

@@happymaskedguy1943 I would agree - an inner would be the only way to foolproof the tent against ingress of anti social wilderness critters of the poisonous and biting type. I find the floor arrangement a bit fiddly from a design POV, and it also adds to the expense - I would've thought a zip in floor would be easier, but no doubt Tentipi had their reasons for building it as they have.

Hi! Mooie video, die ons helemaal op het spoor van de Tentipi heeft gezet. Én van de Gstove. Wat ziet er gezellig uit. Jij gebruikt een koeienhuid onder je stove. Gebruik je daarvan de leerzijde? En is dit net zo veilig als een brandwerende mat? Weet jij of er kwaliteitsverschil in de huiden zit? Zelfs Ikea verkoopt ze nu.

Excuus voor het late antwoord maar ik was even echt weg ;-). Ik gebruik de vachtzijde... vind ik mooier en kan erg goed tegen vallende vonken al kan het soms stinken. Daarnaast is het lekker zacht (en mooi). Net zo veilig.... weet ik niet maar in de praktijk kan ik geen nadelen vinden. Een huid is wel groot. Ik denk zelfs dat de Ikea huiden brandwerend behandeld zijn. Zou je even moeten navragen. De mijne komt gewoon van Marktplaats voor een prikkie. Helpt dit? Groet, Gijs

Would you consider 9 over 7, as the footprint isn’t that different i.e. 4,5m vs 5m however volume inside is very different, or would you stick to 7 when two adults ?

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Hi Egil, I would go for the 7. The 9 has more space but also more weight. I find the 7 the perfect one between 5 and 9. I know some friends who had a 9 with the kids. When the kids stopt going on holiday with them, they changed after a while to the 7. It also takes less time to heat in winter and also less fuel. But.... it also depends a bit on how tall you are 😉.

Bigger is better: a 9 for sure or maybe even 15. I have friends with the same family configuration and they have a 9 and are happy with it. But it is also depending on age of the kids so a 15 might be the more safer option if you need space inside with bad weather. From your name I don't have a clue where you are from and where you go camping. This makes a difference too. Let me know if I can help. I am easy to reach by phone if you prefer that. Cheers, Gijs

@@OutdoorguruGearReviews i'm from Europe, Romania, but i preffer also to be as lightweight as possible, the perfect balance between weight and inside space. i plan to carry it with my back

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

@@eu3145 ok....... You really want a technical cotton tent then? Maybe the more lightweight Tentipi's are easier.

[@eu3145]

@@OutdoorguruGearReviews i want a mobile homelike shelter for long, long time spending, which is close to the home living, and after lots of research i found that Tentipi is the best option, but very heavy to carry unfortunatly... hope you understand my english.

@@eu3145 Your English is fine! And yes I do understand. If you want you give me a call. Is maybe more easy. Number is on the website.

Gijs wouldn't you prefer the Safir 9 CP for a family of 4+ after all? (and a medium stove with extra windows on the side giving nicer ('infra red') heat as well). 7CP probably for 2. There is a cheaper Tentipi with one ventilation opening variant. Not Ten Cate technical cotton. But still technical cotton (think around 30% cotton). The Bell tent (also technical cotton) is a lot cheaper and more space but not as good looking as Tentipi. Hard choices.

Hi Afitlife, No, I would not. We are a small - in cm - familiy of four and like the easy setup op the 7. Friends have a 9 and yes, it is more spacious and when you stay on one spot longer is is fine but they always struggle with pitching. Now they sold the tent and bought a .... 7. Stove with windows: YES! Bell tent.... NO. 😄. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe!

@@OutdoorguruGearReviews I checked both tents yesterday and I think I prefer 9 over 7. Its a lot more space for a small amount more. There is even a family (of 4) carrying the 9 while cycling. I don’t think there is much of a pitching problem. Maybe when you camping in your garden. The bell tent is a different kind and reminds my more tribes in Asia. But Ten-tipi giving the Indian vibes. Both have its charm. You can find both with Ten Cate materials. Its all a personal choice.

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Personal choice, sure! But a 22.5 kg tent on a bike is not my cup of tea. Pitching, not the space the height. Getting a chimney in at 3.6 meter is for me with 1.7 meter not that simple ;-)

[@afitlife]

@@OutdoorguruGearReviews I was thinking the same. But it seems they do with a small trolly behind the bike. And they pitch in less than 10 minutes it seems. No matter the seize. True I’m a big guy and need some space.

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

A trolly makes sense. No stove I suspect ;-)

[@toddkehring3767]

What stove is used and is it available for sale

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Hi Todd, Did you watch the video or read the description below? You'll find your answers there. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

[@johannhandoko]

Is the stove inculded with the tent?

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

Johan, that would be sweet but no... that you have to buy as an extra. But there are many models on the market that fit he Tentipi and not all are expensive. Hope this helps. Cheers Gijs

[@rjmidnite]

That's why I won't buy one ,no zip in floor ,why wouldn't they do that ,know how much money they have lost ! Who wants snakes and rats and bugs crawling on you !

[@OutdoorguruGearReviews]

I do understand but in Scandinavia that is not a real issue. But I have a tent with a full bathtub floor for other occasions. Cheers, Gijs
