Wow, absolutely large tents. Great review

@CampingGuidance 10 месяцев назад

Thank you so much AJ! Your constant support always means a lot 🥰 And yes I really enjoyed testing the latest batch of 6-person tents! I've never spent as much on a single tent before these 😂

@culvercooper 2 месяца назад

Thank you for this awesome review. It has made my choice very simple! TNF!!

@CampingGuidance Месяц назад

Hi Chris! Awww yeah to me it's a simple choice too! Let me know how you like it if you have the time! 🥰

@jonomichi2262 7 месяцев назад

Cool ..that explains so well.. you happen to use big Agnes bunker house 6 ? Again your channel is indeed the best of the sort, keep it up

@CampingGuidance 7 месяцев назад

Aww thank you so much as always! 🥰 And noooo sadly I ran out of money to buy more tents to make the videos :( But the Big Agnes is definitely one of the tents that I'm eyeing for the future. I've heard it's a really good cabin tent, but I gotta test it first to confirm haha

@user-gi7xw8gx3g 9 месяцев назад

Hey I loved your 6 man tent review and I love this video too you are awesome. I am considering this 6 man north face tent, but I would like a slightly larger vestibule space, I’m also 6”5 and my wife is 6” so space is important. I am close to buying this using your REI link but just before I hit go is there any other tent with similar levels of north face quality with just a bit more space that you would recommend?

@CampingGuidance 9 месяцев назад

Hi Daniel! Aww thank you so much for your kind words, you're so awesome too! 🥰 Oh wow and thank you for supporting the channel with the link too! You're the best! As for your question, hmm, so far I haven't tested out any other tent that has a bigger vestibule than my Wawona 6. Do you want more space in the tent itself or the vestibule? Are cabin tents something that you can consider instead? They have way more space than can accommodate to you and your wife's heights than shorter dome tents like this.

Great video. I found a brand new Wawona 6 for $175 brand new, i think someone used it in their yard and took it back!

@CampingGuidance 10 месяцев назад

Hi Felix! Thank you so much! I'm really glad that you liked the video 😊 OH WOW that's such a great deal, wish I could have gotten that too! Where did you buy it from, if you don't mind me asking? And damn I wonder why the other person didn't like it :( But at least you got a great deal out of it 😊

@deborahnaybor2233 10 месяцев назад

Great review. I just donated my 6 person REI Kingdom 6 and bought a used Kingdom 8 (2018) that I love for set up all summer at home in the forest. But I like having a 6 person tent for longer trips. I've been torn between a Wonderland and a Wanona and this helped me decide. It rare that I walk laps around the tent so the extra headroom on the side isn't a big deal but being way up north, I want less mesh and more weather protection. I also hadn't thought about the fact that Wanona includes the BIG vestibule in the price of the tent whereas the REI tents have you purchase a "mud room" for a bigger vestibule. But the Wonderland has had some great sales lately whereas I never see the Wanona marked down in pric. Plus, I'll admit I like a green tent but just got a North Face 2 person Stormbreaker and very happy with the sunny colors. Thanks for helping me decide.

@CampingGuidance 10 месяцев назад

Hi Deborah! Wow I had no idea that you could still get a Kingdom 8! Is this from REI Used Gear? I wish I could buy used gear too! But they don't ship worldwide sadly :( I'm really glad that you found this video helpful! Thank you so much for your comments as always 😊 Hmm if you're looking for more weather protection, the Wawona definitely is better for you. I'd pick it over the Wonderland any day, to be honest. And yes! I love that the big vestibule is included in the price, and it's really hugeeee 😊 Actually during this year's REI anniversary sale, they marked the Wawona down by 30%! It's true that they don't mark down the Wawona as much as REI gear, but sometimes you could get a good offer here and there! 😊 Oooh how is the Stormbreak working for you? That's the next TNF tent that I've got my eye on!

@deborahnaybor2233 10 месяцев назад

@@CampingGuidance Yes, I got the Kingdom 8 on the REI used gear site. All of a sudden a lot of good used tents were for sale...they sold fast. I was so happy to get the 2018 model in great shape as I like it better than the newer model. Sorry I missed the sale on the Wanona but I'll keep watching and saving up my bonus points. :). I haven't camped in the Stormbreak yet but hope to get out this week. It's really tall and I can actually stand up bent over in it, making getting dressed easier. I am going to do a camper van tour of Iceland next summer and want a small tent to sleep outside in case my buddy snores, lol. Thanks again for the great videos. I agree with your advice about budget tents as well. And my favorite four person tent is Big Agnes Big House, another idea for review.

@CampingGuidance 10 месяцев назад

@@deborahnaybor2233 No worries Deborah! I'm sure the Wawona will go back on sale soon or later. Maybe during the next REI sale! 😊 I'm really happy that you managed to get the Kingdom you wanted! I hope it continues going strong for many more years! 😊 Oooh let me know how you like the Stormbreak once you have time to use it? Had no idea it was that tall, but I can't wait to get my hands on it soon! Wow Iceland sounds AWESOME. That's always been on my bucket list too. I hope it goes well for you! 😊 And thank you for the suggestion on the Big Agnes Big House! I appreciate it! 😊 Btw why did you decide to go for the Big House over the other Big Agnes tents? 😊 Like the Bunk House/Dog House, etc.

@Bibliotics 17 дней назад

Thank you for your videos, you helped me finalize my decision to move forward with the Northface Wawona. I do wonder how do you feel about the custom underlayments that they sell? I’ve always just gotten construction plastic and cut to fit my tent. But I thought I’d ask if I’m misunderstanding a benefit to the custom underlayments.

@CampingGuidance 7 дней назад

It was my pleasure! I'm really glad I could help 🥰 I didn't buy the footprint too, you can use any cheap tarp off Amazon that fits haha. I don't even cut them, I just fold them in 😆

@Nojer54 Месяц назад

Hi,great video! Have you found a work around with the rain fly on the wawona 6 to close in the all mesh front door? Camping in cool / cold weather makes my W6 a problem. Its strange that they dont have a wind proof wall.

@CampingGuidance Месяц назад

Hey! I actually quite like the wall cos it's always super hot where I am so I've never needed a workaround, so sorry :( I've heard of another viewer hanging up cloth/tarp or something to close in the front mesh if that helps!

@isoplayers 9 месяцев назад

I think it's worth mentioning the warranty, which the REI one basically has none after the first year of the return window. TNF has a lifetime warranty on the other hand.

@CampingGuidance 9 месяцев назад

Thanks again! And yeah you're definitely right, I totally missed that out 😅 I appreciate you bringing it up, and I'll try to remember that next time 😅 Gonna add in a warranty element for my next 'Best Of' video right now 😂

@EPH-re2xj 6 месяцев назад

Best tent reviews out there! 5 stars Star ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️. Hoping you can review the Marmot Halo 6. Would love to understand the vestibule a little better as compared to the Wawona 6. I’m looking at both and trying to decide. Thanks again!

@CampingGuidance 6 месяцев назад

Thank you so much!! 🥰 It really means a lot to me that you like my reviews! Sorry I don't have the Marmot Halo right now, but maybe next time! If you're looking for the better vestibule though, I'd go with the Wawona. From the looks of it, I think it has much more livable space thanks to the near vertical vestibule walls, while the Marmot's seem more sloping. I hope that makes sense! 😅

@EPH-re2xj 6 месяцев назад

@@CampingGuidance thanks! Yes, I am strongly considering the Wawona for the Deep South and warmer weather most of the time. Looks like your rain review took care of any wet weather and leaking concerns 😂! The vestibule looks amazing! I recommend your videos now anytime I can. Awesome work!

@CampingGuidance 6 месяцев назад

@EPH-re2xj oh okay! The wawona is definitely great for warmer weather 🥰 hehe yes the vestibule is great! Oh but do you expect like many many days of consecutive rain or something? Oh wow and thank you so much for recommending my videos!! That really means a lot to me and I appreciate it 🥰

@EPH-re2xj 6 месяцев назад

@@CampingGuidance I ended up ordering one yesterday - the grey and yellow version! (On sale now - 350$ and another 12% off with active junky) Not planning for a lot of rain but definitely want to be ready when it happens! Thanks again.

@CampingGuidance 6 месяцев назад

@EPH-re2xj that’s a really great deal! Thanks so much for the tip on active junky, I’ve never heard of it but i could definitely use it to save more money 😁 let me know how you like the Wawona! Id love to hear about it 🥰

@mosesjoshua4391 3 месяца назад

Wawona 6. Hi there is an upgraded model May 2023. Is the review based on the newest model in the market? I also heard it has a double wall, better water proof, but hard to set up. Please guide. Thank you.

@CampingGuidance 3 месяца назад

Hi Moses! Hmm I didn't realize there was an upgraded model last year. So far all the retail stores only have the model that I have. It's double walled, well waterproofed, and takes 20 minutes to set up. Do you mind letting me know where you found details on the latest model?
