Wandelen Appalachian Lichtgewicht backpacktent - 2 personen 3 seizoenen ultralichte waterdichte winddichte tent met voetafdruk eenvoudige installatie dubbellaagse buitentent voor kamperen jagen

Ziet er goed uit, geen gebreken, netjes gestikt, geen gekke dingen opgemerkt..maar,wel flink zwaarder dan is aangegeven.. en dat is jammer.De site zegt 1,47 kgpakgewicht 1,68 kggrondzeil 241 gram, zakje met haringen en scheerlijnen 218 gram, stokken 459 gram, binnentent 493 gram, buitentent 485 gram.. in totaal met buitenzak kom ik op 1979 gram (zie foto op weegschaal)!Dat is ruim 300 gram meer dan aangegeven en dat is veel op iets wat Ultralicht heet!Er is wat winst te behalen op het weglaten van alle zakjes en het grondzeil vervangen door een stukje tyvek, en op lichtere (titanium) haringen..Maar dan nog kom je uit op ruim 1600 gram..als ik dit had geweten..

Passt, muss sich noch bewähren.

Was not sure what to expect but the reviews were good so thought I would give it a go. Used on a DofE Expedition for 3 nights. It is great! It is very light. Folds up small. big enough inside (comfortable 1... would be "snug" for 2). Waterproof so far. Will probably buy some more as group kit.

Tent is small and lightweight which is perfect for backpacking. It also held up completely in a major thunderstorm that came in off Lake Superior! Not a single drop came through the tent!One slightly annoying thing was all the bugs flying in between the tent screen and the fly over top but this will only happen if you pitch your tent somewhere where the fly isn’t completely staked to the ground.

Con la seguente recensione andrò a mettere in mostra i pro e i contro in modo che l'utente riesca a capire se il prodotto possa fare o meno al caso suo. (Ovviamente questo è un mio parere personale. L'ho usata per una settimana di cammino in montagna)Pro:- Leggerezza.- Compatta.- Alta resistenza all'acqua.- Possibilità di montaggio anche senza la camera interna, lasciando solo il guscio e il sotto telo. (peso dimezzato)- Facilità di montaggio, grazie all'arco unico.- Picchetti in alluminio.- Involucro/sacca dell'intera tenda ultra compatto e leggero.- Facilità di chiusura ed inserimento nella borsa.Contro:- Catino molto sottile, facile rovinarlo o tagliarlo se il suolo non è perfetto.

I purchased this Appalachian 2 tent by Wandelen from Amazon as a lighter weight backpacking alternative to my trusty Kelty 2 person tent that Ive had and used countlesss times over the last 25 years. This tent is of similar design to my trusted regular, (and at 3 pounds lighter!), I thought Id take a chance on it. The price was so reasonable compared to others of similar design on the market, despite mixed reviews on amazon, from what I could tell overall, the odds seemed favorable. I was very pleased to receive it within a couple of days and found it well packaged. At my first attempt to erect it in my basement I found the directions simple, and intuitive by design. It set up easily in just a few minutes. I love that it includes its own perfectly sized ground cloth that ties in with the rest of the set up of the tent. It also includes a fantastic powerful little rechargeable lantern that weighs next to nothing. Maybe an ounce? The first weekend setting it up in the field on a short weekend camping trip which was a dry run for a planned upcoming backpacking adventure revealed a problem. After initial setup, when closing the rainfly the zipper split in the middle and the zipper itself came off of the zipper tape. That was a bit of a pain but we were able to improvise and adapt and were lucky that it didnt rain. Despite that set back and my disappointment that upon its first field trial there was a failure we made do and the rest of the tent had no issues at all. NOW BEFORE CONTINUING FURTHER WITH THIS REVIEW I MUST TELL YOU THIS; that after our camping trip I reported the problem with the rainfly zipper directly to Wandelen and within a day received an email saying how sorry they were for the failure and that they wanted to make things right for me as their customer by immediately sending me a replacement. Not just a new rainfly as I had requested, but an entirely NEW TENT!!! I cannot say enough good things about how I well I was treated by this company. The gentleman by the name of Jonathan who I was in contact with was so professional and courteous in multiple email correspondence. In this day and age it is refreshing to find a company with people who truly care abut their customers the way this company and its employees do. He told me they were express shipping me a new unit and it would arrive within two days which it did. Thank you Jonathan and Wandelen for being a company that backs up its product and cares about their customers as if they were family!! Now, back to the review: I was pleasantly surprised all around by the overall performance of the tent from the ample space there was for two people (I'm 5'9" and my wife is 5'8") and our sleeping matts, pillows, and some of our gear to the door zipper operation, the built in vent, and the fact that it has so much screen for star gazing. The tent is very well designed and you can tell it was designed for backpakers by backpackers. The only thing I would change about this tent is the amount of vestibule space available. It was not big enough for both of our backpacks. We could only just get one within it and with barely enough room to get past it if we had to get up in the night. Its really just meant for smaller items such as boots, or shoes. So be sure to pack a rain cover for your pack when using this tent. It would be great if in future iterations of this tent they could make the vestibule a bit longer to the front and with closer coverage to the ground. In any case I will defintely be using the new tent on future backpacking trips and will update when Ive tried out the new rainfly on the new tent! Thank you again Wandelen!! Well done! Customer service done right!
