Vango Nevis 100 Tent Review (budget backpacking tent)

[@rossmacrae8406]

Good summary - I recently bought one and I don't use the tension straps unless it is really windy. When it's windy, you don't get midge anyway so you don't need to worry about the small gaps to the inner tent.

[@WalkWithWallace]

Cheers Ross, aye that's good point actually. 😁

[@markwhitelaw6264]

This is one of the options I've been looking at for starting wild camping. I think this video may have just convinced me to go this route. Thanks.

[@WalkWithWallace]

It's definitely a good option. It's always difficult picking your first tent for wild camping. Have a look at the Wildcountry Zephyros 1 tent too. OEX also do small backpacking tents, but they're a bit on the small side. Cheers Robin

@@WalkWithWallace I've got the OEX Phoxx 1 as well as the Vango. The Vango definitely the better option. The Phoxx is really a double-hooped bivvy bag - in anything less than ideal conditions, you need to use it with a tarp for cooking/dressing etc

[@outdoorslifestyle2900]

Thays a great quality shelter for £72 and personally I think vango offer some of the best quality tents for reasonable prices. It should last years and just goes to show you dnt need to spend hundreds to enjoy wildcamping and the country. Cheers for sharing Atb Steve

Alright boss gaziano outdoors sent me here.. Was just wondering if the cairngorm 100 would be a good tent to do some wild camping up north maybe not on the summits but just below, I know it's similar to the the Nevis 100, also looking for decent enough sleeping bag to do me when I'm up there, was looking at the vango fuse - 6, pack size is priority tho cause looking to fit the gear mentioned into my osprey kestrel 48litre, cracking channel, going to check out some of the munros Vids now

[@WalkWithWallace]

Alright Pete, that was good of Gaz. 😁 I haven't seen the Cairngorm 100 in the flesh, but it looks very similar. I think either tent will suit your needs, summit camps would be fine outwith winter. The sleeping bag you've picked is a little bulky, but on plus side, will do the milder winter nights. Have a look at the OEX down sleeping bags too. Hope you enjoy the Munro videos. 👍🏼 Cheers Robin

[@mountain_del1863]

Cracking wee tent mate. For the money, hard to beat. All single hoops are a bit flappy, even AKTOs, but the single hoop design tends to absorb the wind that way. Provided your not perched on a 3500ft summit in 50mph winds your be sorted. 👍👍

[@WalkWithWallace]

I had an Akto back in the day, never got on with it. 😄 The wee Vango will be ideal for midge season and I can't use the tarp.

[@mountain_del1863]

Same here bud. Folks swear by AKTOs but I mainly swore AT mine. Fiddly pitching was second to the insane condensation I experienced ☹️. Tbh unless it’s dead calm, I tend to pitch at 1500 and sheltered if poss. 1.8 kg for vango isn’t too shabby either. Thanks for review

[@smujiodome]

Looks like a great wee tent Robin. Judith and I have been using the Banshee 200 (one each) since 2013 with no problems. Apart from breaking a pole. My own fault entirely for first of all leaning on it and bending it. Then trying to straighten it. Lesson learned. Although still under warranty , Cotswold maintain that Vango only guarantee the pole for the first pitch but I was able to order one online for £16. My fault entirely but then again Andrew Lafferty broke one too so perhaps a weak point and something to watch out for. My tension system is actually connected to the outer tent only and I’m led to believe that it is not supposed to ever be tight. You’re meant to leave a bit of slack there so that when the wind moves the tent. The tension straps, not the tent, take the butt of the force. Ours are great tents for the price, totally waterproof in torrential rain and very very stable in severe winds and I’d imagine yours to be even better with the benefit of a further 6 years R’n’ D. Love the Sainsbury’s bag btw.

[@WalkWithWallace]

I'll remember not to go OTT on the tensioning straps. Which video did Andrew break a pole in again? I never thought, my Sainsbury's bag was a wee indirect tribute to 'Hermit Hill'. Cheers Robin

[@smujiodome]

Walk With Wallace 👣 I don’t think he filmed it. He just mentioned it to me in conversation and I tried to give him a section from a spare pole set that I had but it was a different shape . The banshee ones are actually pre shaped. I think he went through about three Banshees but no disrespect to them. He was very hard on them. He did an amazing amount of miles.

[@WalkWithWallace]

@@smujiodome ah right, yeah he certainly walked the walk. Spent a fair amount of nights under canvas.

[@natalieminnis]

The main pole on my Vango Nevis 100 got a bit bent at one end after a very windy day in Sutherland in March. I'd had a comfortable night and was planning to camp in the same spot for a second night, but the winds built up during the day to about 50mph. In the end I had to take the tent down in a howling gale, and next time I took it out I noticed the bent pole! It's not badly bent though - still works fine.

[@smujiodome]

Natalie Minnis good luck with it. Don’t try to straighten it like I did. That’s when mine snapped.

I've used the Nevis 200 once, woke up and it was fairly wet with condensation on the inner. Otherwise it was really good 😁

[@WalkWithWallace]

To be fair, what small backpacking tent doesn't get condensation?

[@sf9000]

It's not something I've particularly had such a noticeable problem with before but I guess I was in bigger tents then. Either that or I was extra aware of it because I was using a down quilt and it ended up touching the inner. It wasn't enough to clump the down and cause cold spots though.

[@WalkWithWallace]

@@sf9000 yeah I know what you mean. A lot of newer bags have water resistant material and even the feathers get treated.

[@sf9000]

Yeah, I paid extra for the hydrophobic down but I think the fabric made the most impact on protecting it. It's a cumulus 450 hydrophobic long and it performed excellently. Only down to -1 though so that's to be expected for that level of down. In any case Robin, I should say I'm really enjoying your channel, particularly your current cape wrath trail vids! I'm down in Epping forest near London so don't get to come up to Scotland too often but it's always an inspiration to watch people exploring the Highlands :D
