    Had this tent for a few years now. I camp high in the mountains in Scotland, on the beaches, forests etc. the amount of rain and WIND it can sustain is incredible. Haven tried it in winter yet but I consider it a great balance between comfort, weight and hardiness. I’ve been having no issues with it and the quality of the materials is on par with Hilleberg as I had them two pitched side by side.

      Thanks for watching the video 👍 it’s a great tent I’ve had mine for 3 years now and have done a lot of camps in it and it’s still awesome and I agree the materials used on this tent are on a par with Hilleberg 👍

    A good tent review - I watched it to get inspiration for a tent review I am planning to do. But you ended up being a good salesperson for the Abisko 2 - it is a quality tent no doubt about it and it has been a good companion for you in the other movies that you have posted! Cheers

    Hello Twin Peaks. Top video. I recently bought the same tent. It looks as if you have pitched the tent perfectly, it's very taut, especially the rear inner. Couple qs for you, if you can advise? Although, I've only pitched it three times, my rear inner seems to fall forward a bit. I'm 5ft8 and the rear inner was touching my sleeping bag foot end each time. Any advice? Also, my gold pole leans backwards a little. The red pole pitches perfectly upright, but my gold pole tilts back a tad, is that normal? Lastly, at what angle do you recommend pitching the front and rear guys? I think the red pole guys should be at 45degrees as per your video, but I thought the gold guys should come straight out in line with the pole? Any thoughts? Ok Twin Peaks. Regards, Wadirunner.

      Hi thanks for watching, the Abisko 2 lite is a great tent and lots of room for 1 person but the only thing is there isn’t a lot of headroom if you are taller than us and we are about 5, ft 9 I can’t comment on the Soulo as we have never been in one, we have used the Abisko in high winds etc and it performed well. We are soon gonna do another review on this tent, 4 years on from when we first bought it giving our thoughts on it 👍 still a great tent

    I've been looking into getting this tent for a while now. Would you say it's roomy enough for two people? Honestly, it's mostly for me and my dog but it would be nice to know if you actually can fit two sleeping pads next to each other?

      Hi Almarsson, you can definitely fit two sleeping pads side by side as we have done it a few times, so you and your dog won’t be any problem at all, and there will still be plenty of room for your gear as well 😁👌👍

    Hi, thank you for a great review! I am 6'4 / 194 cm tall. Will I be able to sleep in the tent without touching the inner tent? I realize that I won't be able to sit in it comfortably, but I guess that is the cost of having a low weight 4 season tent (although I realize that this tent should not be tested in extreme winter conditions).
