Hey everyone, first of all massive thanks for watching the video.
Just a little update on the tent having now used it a few times. The tent has been on mountains in Glencoe Scotland, in rain and reasonably high winds. See video here ruclips.net/video/HEM7mJ1Ynlc/видео.html
We're pleased to say the tent has performed really well. There are other little things I find I like about the tent so I may well do an updated video at some point soon. Thanks again for watching.
High quality video, very educational, I loved the comparison with MSR hubba hubba, I just subscribed to your channel, keep the good work 😊
Thank you for your kind words. We camped in the tent last night in gusty winds on a Scottish mountain and the tent faired up well. The only thing i would say is it was quite noisy, but then again, i probably should have guyed out a bit more. All in all we're still happy with the tent.
Loved the video, I got a 70 euros 3 person black and fresh decatlhon tent to go camping with my wife and I really notice all the expensive tents (150-200 euros +) got lots of pockets while the cheaper ones dont (at least I didnt found any)
I loved the detail on de vestibule having fabric so we dont have to put bag directly on the soil/ground and it sure seems like it protects better against rain.
One little detail about video the music is super loud then your voice super low sound in comparisson I had to keep lowering volume a lot when music blast and then volume up when you started talking. Loved the drone showing tent from above
Hi, I really appreciate your feedback on the video. Still getting used to editing and im working on making the audio better.
We have now used the tent several times and its held up in wind on Scottish mountains. im really pleased with this Decathlon tent.
Thank you
Great review, thank u so much! Beautiful place
Thank you. I can confirm we have used the tent a few times now, including a mountain camp and still really happy with the purchase.
Thank you for this video. Good honest review. It’s definitely got me intrigued..at least! Great editing as a new channel. I agree with the other commenter about balancing out the sound a bit. I tend to watch all my vids (like a hawk) as unlisted videos first on YT. I might then re-edit/tweak. Good job and thanks again. 👍
Thank you Ben. Yeh, out of all editing I find the audio the most difficult. I have started doing exactly what you said about watching like a hawk on YT before going live.....Yet I still struggle with audio. As I type im uploading a scheduled video for the third time lmfao 🤣 Cheers
Thanks for making this video. You have been instrumental in helping me make the decision to buy this tent!
Aww great, I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Still never gave us one problem....I really rate it. Thank you

Hopefully ready for collection on Saturday, I also ordered the ground sheet.
@@NottinghamshireMadness good stuff. we also got the ground sheet. It all fits in the tent stuff sack really easily. for the money i honestly cant fault the tent.
I'm Decathlons biggest fan and I so wanted to get this tent for my motor bike travels, it's just the pack size that bothers me, a bit big for me. That tho I'm sure will be an awesome tent, love the idea of that extra bit of ground sheet for your gear to sit on. I have the footprint for my Vango helium 2 but I seldom use it because its something else to pack, like what Decathlon have done here tho.
Yeh, I had to weigh up all options before buying. The pack size isn't too bad, but I will have to attach it to my bag rather than putting it inside. The floored porch areas are brilliant.
The best way to pack your gear in your backpack is to not use the bags your tent,sleeping bag,mat ,pillow etc come with instead lose the bags and stuff everything in one big plastic bag at the bottom of your backpack makes more room and is lighter
@@cleankiller9 I’m on a motorbike so doesn’t apply to me - I’d disagree anyway
Hi quick question, I’m planning on backpacking in the I’m starting in Scotland in march, I wanted to know if you tested in the rain how it is, or cold/wind, just found your channel , great video
Hello mate. yup we have had the tent in rain and its been absolutely fine. Withe regards to wind, we have only had it in prob around 20mph winds and again the tent was fine. I really rate this tent. Maybe a bit tight for 2, but the 2 doors and 2 vestibule areas are a big plus also. For the money I would say this is a brilliant tent. I hope you enjoy your backpacking in Scotland. ATB, Donny
@@mad-about-scotland Did you use the separate groundsheet with this tent?
@@Brez6645 Hi mate, yes i bought a ground sheet for it. It was this one
www.decathlon.co.uk/p/groundsheet-mt900-for-2-person-tent-undyed/_/R-p-345846?mc=8797784
Id just rather give the tent a bit of protection.
Thanks
@@mad-about-scotland Ok many thanks
Just came across this review video. Have you tried it out over winter mate?
Hi mate, no we've not done any winter camping this year. Its classed as 3 season, but I wouldnt hesitate in using it though. cheers mate
How it works with Scottish winds ?
Only had it out in about 20mph winds but it was no problem for the tent. It was a little noisy/flappy but that was most likely down to me not pitching it correctly.
The tent material on the decathlon is superior as it does not "wet" and stretch.
Brill, I guess that’s another tick to decathlon 👍
This is an affilate link?
No its not. I made this review as I think the tent is really good and there are not many reviews on it in the UK.
