Bessport Camping Tent 1/2 Person Tent Waterproof Two Doors Backpacking Tent Easy Setup Lightweight for Outdoor, Hiking Mountaineering Travel

Ended up using this car camping when I didn’t feel like buying a midway $200 tent that I’d replace with something more expensive later.Weight? Obviously not a lightweight or close to an UL tent. The weight listed is accurate.Set up took about 5-10 minutes the first time. I purchased the footprint for tent and would suggest getting one as well due to the bottom being thin.The temperatures varied from 40F to about 65-70F and had no issues with condensation. Ventilation worked well and it has two extra vents that can be opened and closed via Velcro (while not the best, they work). You can easily take the rain fly off if you need more ventilation in the case of hot weather.My favorite part? It performed perfect during a storm. Zero water made it inside the tent. It was windy and with the guy-lines there was little to no noise. While there was some movement it wasn’t enough to detract from sleep.Inside is enough for two people snugly with a little gear. For one person it fit me and everything I brought with room to spare. Each corner has a small mesh storage pocket. There is a hook to hang a light off of in the middle. It also includes a mesh basket that can be attached in place of the hook for additional storage.Long story short:Water proof.Easy to setup.Car camping.Get the footprint.It outperforms in cost.

First I just want to start with saying the value of what you get is amazing for the price. Tent is 4.5 lbs. By myself I can set it up in about five minutes.Pros: super lightweight, has two doors, storage on all corners, a good bathtub, hanging hooks up top, great ventilation, tent poles are super lightweight and snap in easy, the attachment points are reenforced, the rain fly sits roughly three inches off the tent allowing for food ventilation, rain fly has several guy lines (I only used the corners and the vestibule ones), zippers are stitched well and slide with ease, easy pop up ventilation on either side that can Velcro down during rain.Cons: comes with 12 steel steaks @28 grams each (ditched them and put in 6 of the aluminum ones from Walmart @16 grams each), THATS IT!!!I have used this tent twice, one over night and a three night through trip. I had it set up and taken down before anyone else and the two guys I was with wanted this link so they can buy one. The tent steaks were the only negative that I have found yet. The zippers get caught in the material from time to time but I found that only happened when I was being quick but if I just calmly unzipped them like a normal person and not some ape, there were no issues. I'll be buying another for my son.

2 person tent purchased. Very easy to set up. First time used it rained for 5 hours and moderate wind. It held up well. It did leak but that was my fault because I had the door of the rain fly rolled open, it was up against the wall of the rain fly and it caused rain to seep in. Once it was unrolled and closed it did not leak anymore. It had good ventilation. Overall the 2 person tent is comfy for 1 person.

For a long time I had been looking for a solo tent which should tick these boxes: light weight; of the right size; with good quality and design. I thought I would have to pay US$200 upward to have such qualities in such a tent. And I got these in the Bessport 1, for much less.The tent weighs about 5 lbs out of the box. That seems heavy considering the weight of solo tents on the market these days. It is heavy for 'good' reasons: the included pegs were made of iron - they weigh 1 lb. On the other hand the tent is made of traditional PU coated polyester fabrics. These are heavier compared with, for example, sylnylon. I am not disapppointed by the fabrics, though. They are obviously more sturdy than sylnylon. This is obvious in the case of the tent floor. Having said all these I would say that the tent is well built with good quality.In order to reduce weight many solo tents on the market skim on size. The Ferrino Nemisi solo tent I own is a typical example. It measures 70 cm (27.5") at the head end and 50 cm (19,6") at the foot end. I can barely roll when I sleep in there. My head nearly scratch the roof when I sit up as the maximum height of this tent is 90 cm (35.4"). I am not really that big - 5'9". When I am in there there is no room for my pack or my boots. My Bessport solo on the other hand provides a lot more room in comparison, good enough for me and my gear.One interesting feature of the tent is the very tall "skirt" - the low wall of non-mesh fabric which surrounds the floor from the ground up. It is high - nearly 2' from the ground up. It is nearly up to my shoulders when I am sitting inside. This may be thought of as a 4 season feature - the skirt prevents drafts from coming in in winter time. On the other hand, however, this could be a barrier of good ventilation in summer.I had seen a review of this tent on YouTube. The reviewer conducted a rain test on this tent and subsequently observed that it leaked, as some parts of it were not properly seam sealed or taped. Hence he advised people not to buy this tent. I have not rain tested this tent. Neither have I used it in rain. Having seen this review, however, I did check the fly of my own Bessport tent, very meticulously. I can say that all the seams there are properly taped. And I see no reason why and how it could leak, ever.I highly recommend this tent to anyone who looks for a well made, good quality and fully functional tent. It is absolutely value for money.
