Single Person Camping Tent, One Person Lightweight Bivy Tent with Net Mesh for Hiking Mountaineering Backpacking Travel

Perfect for my 1-3 trips every year. Very light and compact. Very easy to set up. I’m 5’5” and 130 lbs, there was enough room for me to comfortably have belongings inside with me. The opening by the head is awesome! You can watch the stars as you fall asleep.

Four stars not five because it's not fully stealthy like I was hoping. Almost all of the big name tents have bright neon-type colors, not good for forest or stealthy camping . So I was curious when I saw this inexpensive stealthy tent. This tent was much higher quality than I expected.Pros: Unlike the previous reviewer, the poles were easy to get in. Perhaps his tent was shipped with two long poles or he was inserting them into the wrong ends of the tent? The pole sections come already slightly curved. So have the curves in the right direction when inserting them. The 13 tent stakes were not the cheap ones companies usually include. The floor seems durable and the zippers didn't snag even when doing a fast zipping test. The packing size is quite small. It repacked to 15" x 6", which is a great size to put it in your motorcycle saddlebags. My digital bathroom scale said the tent was 2.6 pounds. The manufacture logo on the rain fly was in black, not like the bright colored logo I've seen manufacturers do with tents they bill as "camouflage".Cons: The claim of being for people up to 6'6" is a stretch. I'm 5'6 and with my legs all the way at the end, I would estimate anyone taller than 6 feet would have their head brushing against the door mesh. One negative for some people is that there aren't any mesh storage pockets (which isn't important to me).Staking it down: If a person wanted a quick setup without the fly, four stakes at the corners would be sufficient to make it free standing. But if you wanted to fully stake it down, there are 8 points on the tent (4 on each side) to stake it down. For the rain fly you would use one in the center rear (for guyline) and two for the front door corners. The other loops on the rain fly can utilize the 8 points on the tent.Packing: No directions are included, so here is how to repack. Put rain fly on the tent after you get the poles out. Fold it in have lengthwise. Put the bags with the poles and stacks at one end, and roll up the tent from there. As with most camping gear, it is a struggle to get it back into the original packing bag. I'm going to replace the bag with a slightly larger one. It was a bit difficult to get the poles out of the tent. But from my experience in similar pole arrangement tents the poles will eventually curve more and they will become easier to get out.Stealth fails: All the tent/fly loops, zipper pulls, guylines, and loops for rolling up the door have what appear to be reflective qualities in them (great if you like that). I took a sharpie to the loops for rolling up the door and the rear rainfly guyline loop. I want stealth, so I'll be replacing all those reflective orange loops and guylines with dark paracord.It's too cold for me here in the north to go camping, so I'll provide an update after I've had a chance to use it next spring and summer. As I do with all tents, I'll be spraying waterproofing on the seams and rainfly.Update to review: I didn't like the poles going through the sleeves, so I sewed tent pole clips onto the sleeves as shown in the last photo. You will need 6 for the front pole and 4 for the back pole. So if the sleeve aspect turns you off on this tent just order some tent pole clips and sew them on.

It is super light weight which is why I bought it but it's not very well built the Frame is not very sturdy kept falling over on me. Kind of a pain in the butt to get in and out of. Just buy yourself a regular two man tent and you will be way more comfortable

Wish I bought it during the sale. Took it camping on sand next to a river and a backpacking trip. Held up well during a windy thunderstorm. The poles do feel like I am going to snap them when setting them up but they hold up.

I sent this back, as I ordered by mistake , but after wished I had kept it. It has nice poles, better than expected stakes, and would have condensed less than the one I bought. It is quite low, it is more like a bevy than a tent you can sit up in, and there is little room for gear out of the weather, but if that is what you want, it is a good tent.

Bought it for my 3-day backpacking this wkend. Had a hard time getting the poles to sit in at max stretch, and a couple of them were twisted weird - was very concerned the sleave stiching would rip apart as I fixed the poles. You can see the stress folds across the tent floor under the poles. While I love how light it is, I now have to buy and sew on tent pole clips so I can relieve the unnecessary stress on the pole sleeves. Needless to say, I am disappointed I will have to take my heavier tent this wkend while I attach the pole clips. Hence 3 stars.

$60 for this item, is great for 1 or 2 (small) person tent for summer or autumn camping. The mesh inside comes separate from canopy cover for rain or wind.Compact for single-person, easy to assemble and not expensive.I'd not use this as 4-season tent however. Also I'd Scotch spray this to make it more rain-proof.

Bought this to go backpacking with. First, the set up is not the easiest when you do it from the first time. I would think it might be a bit tougher if you've never set a tent up before. There are no instructions, so you kind of have to go by the picture. The Bivy has 2 poles, which were fairly easy to install. I will say, I love how the tent pole segments have a smooth sleeve, so there is nothing to catch on when you slide them through the guides on the tent. Once you get the the main part set up, figuring out where and how to attach the anchor lines on the rain fly was the hardest part. Once you figure that out, you're good to go. Just be careful not to trip over them, as there are two extending from the top out in front of the tent. I tripped on them twice, both times at night, and pulled them out of the ground. The tent sleeps one adult. I'm a male, 5'6", 175 lbs. and I fit in and slept comfortably with an air mat (not an air mattress), a thick sleeping bag, and was able to fit my backpack in as well. However, with me and my gear, it was pretty cozy. You can't really sit up inside, so don't expect to spend much time inside other than sleeping or laying down. I didn't really get to test the water proofing, but I imagine as long as you have the rain fly set up correctly, you'd be fine. I was able to pack up the tent, air mat and my sleeping bag all in about 10 minutes. The tent fits nicely in it's sleeve, and is the perfect size and weight to strap to the bottom of a hiking backpack.I recommend this to anyone doing any solo backpacking. Just make sure you bring extra rope or cord, a few extra pegs, and a small patch/repair kit.
