Yellowstone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)not a completely bad product if you dont care about other tents out there that could be much more satisfying. For a two person it had enough room but it is not free standing meaning you need to hammer in the stakes in order for it to set up, the stakes are cheap and would probably bend after being used a couple times, and the fabric isnt all that great either. I didnt actually use it. I returned it because it wasnt ideal for backpacking. If you want to spend money on a tent for 2 buy the big agnes tents. Expensive, but pro status. oh yeah and the poles on the tent were the only nice thing about it. All packed up its about two feet across which would stick out to wide on a pack.

Sierra Designs Convert 3 Tent Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We bought this tent for occasional snow trips and for car camping, the latter as it is roomy enough for a queen size air mattress.The first night out in Olympic National Park we were caught in a deluge--rain falling like walruses and whales, not cats and dogs.We successfully set up the tent without getting the interior wet, and stayed dry all night.

There are two air vent snoots near the top of the tent.In addition, the doors on each end have a rain shield, so they can be opened part way.As this four season tent is a single wall design, these features are essential to keeping the inside of the tent from developing condensation, and they work very well.Noseeum netting will still keep the bugs out while you're letting fresh air in.While we haven't exposed the tent to fierce winds, what wind we encountered has been shed smoothly.

The process of setting up the tent differs from that of typical tents.After laying out the tent, the hoop poles are inserted in their sleeves.Then someone must crawl inside the tent with the front-to-aft frame pole, and place the ends in their anchor points while arcing the pole across the ceiling.When taking down the tent, be careful not to pull on the hoop poles--they are shock-corded, and will separate into their sections if you do so.Instead, pull fabric down on the far end section, and then *push* it along to advance the pole outward--it helps to have someone else guide the free end to keep it from going into the mud or the brush.

If you are used to standard backpacking tents, the interior feels immense.Attachment points allow one to hang clothing items, lights, or a mesh storage area inside the tent.Normal sized occupants can sit up comfortably.

My only quibbles are that I find myself fumbling with the door zippers, as there are just too many.And the stuff sack seems rather flabby.But these are very minor concerns.We're quite satisfied with this well-conceived product.

MSR Storm King Tent Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Just back from a high altitude trek in the Indian Himalaya and used the Storm King for 2 weeks for the first time. Must mention that the Storm King is a great buy. During the two weeks we were hit initially by rain, then hail and finally tons of snow at 5000m. On some days we had very strong winds as well. The Storm King held up very well and kept us dry and warm. Apart from 3 of us sleeping in the tent the Storm King also easily accomodated the full team of 8 to hang out togeather every afternoon/ evening. The internal height at 64 inches does creare a fair amount of space and you do feel comfortable even if you are a large group. Would strongly recommend the Storm King for those looking for a large expedition tent.

Product Description:
The largest expedition tent in the Mountain Safety Research collection, the Storm King sleeps five and is strong enough to handle it all, from wet Cascade snow dumps to multi-day Alaskan horror shows. The Storm King is made of 40D x 238T ripstop nylon 6 fabric, with a 1,500mm polyurethane and silicone coating that helps keep cold and wet weather at bay. The burly reinforced frame, meanwhile, includes frame restrictors and an equalized tension structure, creating superior strength and stability despite the large size. As a result, you'll have the confidence and sanity to get some sleep inside despite the rage outside. Best of all for large groups, the tent features loads of interior space, with a giant front vestibule and a small rear vestibule contributing to the floor plan. Other features include an easy-to-set-up design with five equal-length poles and continuous pole sleeves, along with two large doors that provide excellent cross ventilation.

High Peak Endero Waterproofing Tent - 2500mm Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This tent is light and rolls up easily with a good waterproof floor so no footprint is needed. The rain fly is a bit short, which in my view means this tent is not truly 4 season. It is relatively easy to set up, except it is quite challenging to thread the poles into the sleeves. I recommend buying a tent with an external frame rigging to avoid that difficulty. It was very sturdy against sustained 40 mph winds in Patagonia. The biggest problem with this tent (and the reason I rated it low) is because the pole and stake grommets were so badly crimped that most came out on first use. It also appears the zipper fabric will begin to tear after continued use because the fabric is quite thin and the fibers were beginning to separate after a couple of set ups. Still it is a good value for occasional use (if you don't mind replacing the grommets).

Eureka K-2 XT 8'11-Foot by 7'8 -Foot Three-Person Four-Season Expedition Tent Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This has to be my favorite Eureka 4-season tent. If I only had one tent for everything (yeah, right!), this would be the one. The geodesic dome shape (4 aircraft aluminum poles) is incredibly strong...maybe the strongest of all tent designs. Ripstop fabric with extra waterproof coating will stop rain, snow and ice and the unique guy-line arrangement gives me some flexibilty when anchoring this tent. Like my Alpenlite 2XT, this tent comes with two vestibules and the rear vesti can be accessed from inside the tent via a second/back door. I wasn't sure about all the vents at first but I'm finding that they make the tent a good choice for warmer weather, too! I've posted a bunch of pictures for this tent so take a look. If there is a down side to this tent...it's a bit heavy for a backpack. The fix for this?...I fall back on Boy Scout training and divide the components. I'll carry the tent body and my friend Sharon Sharalike gets the rainfly, poles and stakes. An outstanding tent!!!

About Eureka
Though the exact year is unknown, Eureka's long history begins prior to 1895 in Binghamton, New York, where the company still resides today. Then known as the Eureka Tent & Awning Company, its first wares were canvas products--most notably, Conestoga wagon covers and horse blankets for nineteenth century American frontiersmen--as well as American flags, store awnings, and camping tents.
The company increased production of its custom canvas products locally throughout the 1930s and during the 1940 and even fabricated and erected the IBM "tent cities" just outside Binghamton. The seven acres of tents housed thousands of IBM salesmen during the company's annual stockholders meeting, which had since outgrown its previous locale. In the 1940s, with the advent of World War II and the increased demand for hospital ward tents, Eureka expanded operations and began shipping tents worldwide. Ultimately, upon the post-war return of the GIs and the resultant housing shortage, Eureka turned its attention to the home front during the 1950s by supplying awnings for the multitude of mobile homes that were purchased.
In 1960, Eureka's new and innovative Draw-Tite tent, with its practical, free standing external frame, was used in a Himalayan Expedition to Nepal by world renowned Sir Edmund Hillary, the first person documented to summit Mt. Everest only six years earlier. In 1963, Eureka made history during its own Mt. Everest ascent, with more than 60 of its tents sheltering participants from fierce 60+ mph winds and temperatures reaching below -20
