Wechsel Exogen 1 Tent | Mid priced Lightweight One person Tent | Pitching Demo and initial thoughts.

[@Blobby192]

got mine today after waiting several years for new stock, i have 3 wechsel tents now, very well made and weather proof

[@EldestPuck]

I have that tent too. I just came back from a hiking trip in Scotland. It worked very well. Strong wind and heavy rain in the highlands were absolutely no issue for that thing...

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

@@EldestPuck excellent. Appreciate you putting that in the comments. 👍

[@elmanuel472]

I just pitched the similar Venture 1 (different outer material and somewhat heavier at 1,95 kg) for the first time. Clever design, cozy interior, really happy with it at first sight.

[@afhevh]

I like side openers so much better. Looks like a very good tent

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

I've never been their biggest fan. I like the small tunnel style usually.

[@Andrewoutdooradventures1550]

It's a great tent like it Dan 👍

[@frankexchangeofviews]

I've had one of these for a while now and love it. You can pitch it outer first if you have the footprint, but like you I don't find inner first a problem in most conditions. Things I don't like are the position of the hanging loops in the inner (but it takes 10 minutes to sew in another one) and the pockets really sag down with anything heavy (I haven't done anything about this yet, but I think an extra peg out point would sort it). I'm also a bit more nervous about cooking inside with no ventilation right at the top. What I do like is it feels really durable for the weight, it's spacious and generally a nice place to be, great in the rain, stands up pretty well in the wind. It's a breeze to pitch, too, unless you want to bother with the ties on the outer.

Wow that’s a dam fine looking tent ! Great review really thorough and in depth , glad you liked it ! She stands pretty 😎 Cheers Col

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

Awesome thank you!

[@ianmatlock1]

What a great tent review video. I'm considering the 2 person version of this so really interested in your very detailed review, particularly your comments on pitching when it raining, which is my main concern about inner first tents.

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

Thanks Ian.

[@manuelkleinmann9556]

Try the Wechsel Trailrunner, when the space is enough.

[@EldestPuck]

U can use the groundsheet than it turns to a outer first tent. 😉

[@ferrino73]

It’s like the Alpkit soloist but with a side opening. Side opening so much easier to get in and change etc. great video 👍

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

Thanks 👍

[@j.brewer7717]

Brilliant review and great video 👍

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

Thank you! 👍

[@rodoutdoors]

Very cool. I like the design.

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

yeah its not a bad tent.

[@aaa111912]

nice tent ,nice demo.

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

Thank you.

[@dannyknight8082]

Watched this enough times to convince myself along with your other vids, good work, hoping this is the perfect tent to slot in between my lanshan 1 pro and my Nortent vern 1 pc. 👍🏻

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

Fingers crossed!

[@Fellmandave1]

Top drawer review. Cheers. Looking at more on your channel. Good stuff. New subber . Atb fellmandave

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

Thanks Dave 👍

[@WildCamper]

I think it's a keeper!

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

its pretty solid. I've a few similar tents. Colin gave it to me to try out. with an option to return it hmm

[@steveoutdoors6522]

It be really good if had a 2way zip on the door thanks for reviewing it 👍

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

yes, that would be a great addition I agree.

[@scotbotvideos]

Looks akin to the Naturehike Cloud-Up 1.

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

similar yes.

[@dannyknight8082]

Really good review, I like the look of this, been seriously considering it, seems a little pricey for a brand I'm not that familiar with. How do you think the quality stands up? Cheers

[@samjelli]

Did you seam seal it before you used it in bad weather? I'm about to get the exogen 2 and wondering if it'll be necessary to seal

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

No I did not. I talked about it during the video I believe.

[@andymcbain5441]

Thanks for the video - very useful! Are you familiar with the Banshee Pro 200 as well? That’s my current tent and I’ve been happy with it (i’m 6 feet tall) but I’m looking for something a bit lighter. Mainly just curious as to how the living space differs in practice. Thanks!

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

I have a banshee pro 200 (and a video on it) it's a great tent.. tough and safe.. but I hate not being able to sit up!

[@andymcbain5441]

@@CampLifeBushcraft thanks! Just watched it. Yeah agreed, the sloping roof means my face is close to the inner mesh which is a bit claustrophobic and I can’t sit up straight in it either. The rectangular inner on the Exogen looks better for me.

[@fraserconnell21]

Clever them Germans! Built in South East Asia 😊

[@cyrilhaessig27]

Great review. The tent looks nice with an interesting pole structure, but is it enough to fight off the competition in its price bracket ? The same specs at £200 I would definitely get it. At £350 to £400 it is perhaps over priced. Having said that, this is a subjective comment as I have no experience of this tent. All the best.

[@CampLifeBushcraft]

I agree with your assessment. It's probably a little bit more expensive than it should be.

[@adventures_of_a_dale]

Really interesting, do they do a 2 man version?

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

Yes they do , double door on those just under 2kg will be stocking them as well (outdoor gear essentials)

[@johnmccarron]

Vango F10 ul 2 is better and cheaper.
