Had the first night out in mine the other night, on top of a hill. I didn’t think I’d get on with the low ceiling height after putting it up in the garden, but it really wasn’t a problem out in the wild! However, Vango have clearly lied about the height of this tent - as I measure it at only 88cm (should be 95cm) in the centre! I’d describe it as spacious but cosy… It reminds me of the dens I used to make as a kid with it being low in height, and I love it for that.. It’s such a great colour for wild camping too, now my new favourite shelter out of the 8 I now own! 😎👍🏻

That's a great insight for anyone looking to get this tent! Thank you so much for the feedback

@raymondlogister6828 21 день назад

Again thank you for this video. A very portable tent, weight is perfect and a very stable tent. Only the seat height is limited.

@tauntonleisure 19 дней назад

No problem and thank you for the support! Its about 5cm lower than the Hubba Hubba but I think what makes it look so much lower is the sloped sides. It still offers a good amount of head hight in the centre but not as much on either side.

Looks perfect for bike touring in the UK for those of us that have a draw to camping near the coast.

Glad you like the look of it!!

@GrizzlyGaz Месяц назад

Got mine for £240! Not a bad price for what looks like a lighter version of the helm 2 tent that has been tested in some rugged conditions. This might just be a bargain 4 season tent!

@martinappleby2895 Месяц назад

Looks a cracking tent for the money Gaz, look forward to your review on it if you do one.

@GrizzlyGaz Месяц назад

@@martinappleby2895 not sure about a review but I'll definitely put it through its paces 😉 Daley Outdoors bought one too so he'll probably do a 'first look' of it and share his thoughts 👍

@martinappleby2895 Месяц назад

@GrizzlyGaz I'm thinking of buying it while it's on offer for the price you bought it at, I had a helm 2 and I see it's just a tad smaller height wise than the helm.

@GrizzlyGaz Месяц назад

@@martinappleby2895 yeah it's only 95cm which is the cut off point for me personally. 100cm would have been a lot better but most of the Vango tents are 95cm internal height and I'm guessing it's for better wind performance but that's only a guess. I'm glad they're making some lightweight tents and Vango are usually overlooked by the wild camping community. I really like the Starav 200 but at 2.6kg it's pretty heavy for a 2 person tunnel tent. I might try and get a manufacturer to make me a silnylon version of it 🤔

@martinappleby2895 Месяц назад

@GrizzlyGaz yes the helm is 100cm so only 5cm height difference and I think the vango is just a little bit wider than the helm, I think the offer on the vango is only for this weekend then goes back to it's original price.

@rufusduck71 Месяц назад

This looks really good and stronger than the helium that its obviously an evolution of . Wider in the base too making for a realistic 2 man tent . My concern is that the headspace ie the amount you have sitting up that you can move left right forward and backwards is so limted (like the helium ) . Limits its apeal for me . Great video stuart 👍 well done

@tauntonleisure Месяц назад

We are glad you liked the video and can defiantly understand your concern. The head hight is similar to the MSR Hubba Hubba (100cm tall) I think that the low doors make it look slightly lower than it is in real life.

@billtrim6512 3 часа назад

would you recommend this tent over the helm 2 ?

@leeroy5190 17 дней назад

Does the storm cord pack away into a pocket when you aren't using it or is it just loose? Can it be unclipped entirely?

@robbieambrose8542 21 день назад

Will you be doing a video on the Radon?

@tauntonleisure 19 дней назад

We will have one coming in the next few weeks!

@donnavansenior Месяц назад

Looks great apart from the lack of internal head height.

@SkorpionFlux Месяц назад

Looks like you can sit up in it.

@donnavansenior Месяц назад

@@SkorpionFlux I go out to enjoy camping, not endure it, so I'm quite particular about things like internal head height. 95cm would have my head touching the top. For the darker nights of 3 season camping, where you are in the tent for longer, that would be a deal breaker for me. I've owned many Vango tents - and in the F10 range the Helium 2, the Xenon and the Krypton. I'd still probably try this one out though, it does look a solid build.

@martinappleby2895 Месяц назад

@donnavansenior it looks a great 3 season tent which I'm thinking of purchasing, not too bothered about the head height as if it's decent weather I'd be sat out of the tent anyway .

@donnavansenior Месяц назад

@@martinappleby2895 Me too, nothing finer than being sat outside - but I live in Northern England, and decent weather is rare up these here parts 😂😂

@martinappleby2895 Месяц назад

@@donnavansenior I know what you mean, you get so harsh arsh conditions up in the North East, I'm in between the dales, peaks and moors so not much better here.

@hedleythorne 23 дня назад

Silly question, but being nylon won't it flap more when wet than if it were polyester?

@tauntonleisure 23 дня назад

No silly questions, In terms of flapping, it's difficult to make a definitive statement about which material flaps more since it can depend on various factors. However, some users report that silnylon tents may flap more in windy conditions due to their lighter weight and possibly because they can stretch more than polyester. However, this might not always be the case, as the design and tautness of the tent also play significant roles. Silnylon is chosen in this case because it has a much better strength-to-weight ratio

@hedleythorne 23 дня назад

@@tauntonleisure Great information, thank you

@tauntonleisure 23 дня назад

@@hedleythorne No problem!!😃

@martinappleby2895 Месяц назад

Does the tent come with inner already attached or separately?

@tauntonleisure Месяц назад

No, so it would be worth pitching it at home before your first use!

@SkorpionFlux Месяц назад

You know your tents, that is a spring and autumn season tent.

@sebastianforbes1 24 дня назад

I see the velcro is still backwards for the TBS system...

@El-Jefe 4 дня назад

Can you elaborate for me please? I am thinking of buying one of these. Is there a problem with the velcro around the the TBS system?

@johnsonpt2 Месяц назад

@furiousdoe7779 Месяц назад

Again for small people build ..95 cm high inside is quite low ...

@tauntonleisure Месяц назад

Your right the height of these tents can be a bit challenging for taller folks or those who prefer more headroom. The 95 cm height is designed to help reduce weight, pack size, and make it better suited for challenging conditions.
