I've had this tent for about a month now and have already taken it out 3x, most recently to the Mojave for 4 nights of astrophotography in Joshua Tree National Park. I absolutely have fallen in love with this tent. The size is definitely something to consider, but the utility of the thing is fantastic. I slept wonderfully with great ventilation and had a very nice amount of room to change, eat, cook, etc. The awning is great for shade as well. Truly can't speak highly enough of this thing.
This is so hilarious. I picked up this tent in June for a wicked price on Ali Express . Exactly the same experience with documentation, setup and everything you have expressed in the video. Yes I was willing to gamble on it. Our stove needed a new home after getting totally fed up with the TeePee. Had the tent in a couple of rain storms and freezing temps with no issues at all. We put a double mattress in the inner with no problem along with 2 backpacking chairs, stove, lots of wood and a table and we still have room. With 2 persons there is a bit of condensation but that's not so much a Issue when we can detach the inner and keep that part dry. It's exact ally what we were looking for in a hot tent - so happy we found this one.
I bought this tent for motorcycle camping and back in June did a 17 night tour of Holland, France, Belgium and Spain. 2500 miles. The tent was perfect. Small Pack size in top box and quality feel. I endured about 5 nights of heavy storms and tent did not let me down once. It's a perfect balance of roomy usability, pack size, weight and function. I like the idea I can just duck my head to walk in and out of the porch area and room to sit on my chair and cook. I have about 14 other tents in my collection and this is my favourite. I do have a folding wood stove now and will try it out this winter.
I will look into this tent. Three years ago bought a moto-tent. With a porch your bike could stand in. When i was in Sweden set it up next to a lake. My first time setup. It was really heavy and a big package. I needed to do a dump and did a walk before doing that. When i came back i could see my bike. But no tent. So weird. While walking futher thought " could we really be living in the Matrix ? " . My tsnt was gone and also some stuff in it like the Exped matras and sleepingbag. And some little stuff. Also a big groundsheet. My phone and a powerbank. Totally gone. Everything. Even those things that you hammer in the ground. It must have been a sudden strong wind that had picked my tent and everything in up completely. I had the porch open. REVERZ tent was it i think. I had not even slept in it once. Around 11.00 hours i did ride of the boat. And made some speed to get to where i wanted to go for the first night. Last year i also went to Sweden and wanted to do the TET. 3 bloody weeks of heavy rain. Every day every minute of the day. Sleeping in a hammock. So glad i just had bought a bigger tarp then the one i had used for many years. So i could take one side down to stop the water from that side. Storms and thunder. End of days stuff. Even my Kriega bags got soaked. And the skin on my knees and elbows were gone because my riding gear was soaked for three weeks. I want a tent and it must be bloody strong with half a meter titanium pegs. And 8 mm paracord or schackles. So i never want a tent with a high porch where you can stand in. Bloody h*ll.
I bought a tent recommended by this channel (naturehike mongar) and so thankful. storm came and Im the only camper sleeping safe and comfortably. im a newbie in camping and this channel helped me a lot in choosing my gears. also i enjoy watching the reviews, tips, and camping adventures.unfortunately my country (philippines) doesnt have much choices when it comes to brands. recommending your channel to friends ever since. thank you!!!
Hi Luke! I just bought it came in today $291.00 on Amazon with a $30 coupon. I already set it up and it is huge, I'm 6'2" and I feel that there is a lot of space with my Naturehike camping tent you reviewed not to long ago and I'm very comfortable. I'm going to test it out this weekend in the rain. Wish me luck. Thanks for your videos I am going broke buying stuff that you review 😂 gracias.
I bought this tent based on this review and also bought a Winnerwell Nomad stove for it. I booked my family a Hipcamp site that is in the path of the solar eclipse happening in April 2024. I'm looking forward to using this tent there. Thanks for the great review!
Thank you so much for giving the review on this tent. I was waiting for this review. This tent was sitting in my Amazon shopping car for a while. I removed it and added the tent to the cart from your link. Your unbiased review means a lot to me. I am new to this winter camping, and your review helped me. Keep up the excellent work for us. Thumbs up
Stoked for this review. Iv'e got two small boys I'm excited to introduce snow camping to and a $250 point of entry for the shelter sounds right up my alley. You're easy one of my favorite reviewers on the platform, appreciate all you do sir!
Hey Luke, looks like a great winter truck camping hot tent. Im looking forward to you setting it up in the winter with a stove, table and a chair and how it performs. I hope it is waterproof/snow worthy. Great review so far, thank you. S&H…🇺🇸
I would have to wait for your waterproof testing before I purchased it. But if it is indeed waterproof, I would definitely purchase this tent for a hot tent specific camping trip. Like you said the price definitely blows me away for what you are getting with this tent.
I've been looking at it on temu for about a week lol . Hope it is waterproof. I've been thinking about doing a year living off grid I'd buy it if passed your test
@@billyharrison602 there's no way in hell I'm living in this for a year comfortably and depending on where you are in winter 4 to 6 inches of snow would render this thing to a pile of poles. I'm not trusting my life to anything off of Temu for $250. And if u r going to live in it for a year I'd suggest spending the money on a canvas synthetic blend teepee
@@billyharrison602I am going to echo moose. You do not want to live in a tent for a year that you cannot fully stand up in unless you are travelling for a year and need to make sacrifices for mobility. Luke's waterproof testing is not for long term living, it is for weekend warriors. The DWR coating will wear off within a month or two and you will end up using a tarp like everyone else. This tent is pretty great though.
BUY IT NOW BEFORE THIS PRODUCT SALE OUT OR THE PRICE SKY ROCKET!!! Luke i purchased this tent yesterday after watching your video. Folk listen up after luke do his final review with a video no matter what the price is going to sky rocket so buy it now return it later if your not satisfied. I have a good feeling about this one here. Thank you luke for sharing this product.
I tried this for the first time 2 weeks ago , loved it ! It is waterproof and do stand well to wind ,paired with a Pomoly Dweller Ti it's perfect for a solo winter trip . 😃 Thanks for your excellent channel and reviews !
This looks like the perfect tent for motorcycle camping or bike packing. Quite compact to stow on the back, but massive room inside and decent quality, and you can park your bike under the awning.
Just did 17 nights motorcycle camping in Europe. Rained for about 6 nights and it was perfect. Small pack size and plenty of usable space to cook and relax. Easy to walk in and out of.
Finally---- a tent review I, as a 4 season, tent that I, can personaly , use I have to drive to camping areas due to health I can use this. Thank Goodness you found this. THANK YOU!!!!!!!
Thanks again! I didn't know about Naturehike tents. After watching your review, I decided to buy Naturehike Ranch Hot Tent. For 350. Has everything. Inner,stove jack,poles. It was a better deal than the onetigris fortress. And it's a 5m. It's a little bigger than the Fortress. Thank you for your reviews. I'm a fan for many years. You have always helped me with camping gear decisions
I've had a 3 person Naturehike tent for 4 years now. . its AWESOME. We separated the tent amongst the 3 of us backpackers in the Enchantments, 4 nights of rain, they were so impressed with the comfort and design, the other 2 hikers bought a Naturehike tent for family camps. . I have my ultralight cottage tents, you can't beat them for weight, but Naturehike makes a great product. This one is tempting! ugh am I about to go buy a tent stove? great review!
They do make good tents, but when you buy them you really should buy them through a certain large online retailer (whenever I say the name my post gets deleted, but you know the one) and then go over them with a fine toothed comb because if there's anything wrong with it that you don't pick up on right away the manufacturer will ignore your support requests. That certain online retailer enforces a 30 day return period and will also make things right afterwards if the seller ignores your warranty claims. Customer support is where that company fails miserably and the reason for it is because they don't ship parts or make repairs. Their solution to warranty claims is to ship you an entirely new set up and they don't want to do that just because a 10 cent zipper fell apart or a 25 cent pole section broke.
I bought this tent and already I am also glad that I purchased. I took it camping with my kids and wife and on Saturday we were caught in a storm with winds at 30 mph with heavy rain, and lightning, and it passed as a champ! No leaks, and it stood its ground.
Thanks for the Naturehike reviews, they helped me decide upon a new Dune 10.9 for my sidecar trip with my dog around Australia. The quality is amazing! 👊🏼
Great video Luke, thanks for trying out Temu. Also thanks to people leaving their own reviews in comments, very informative. Non traditional supplier like Temu are increasing customer choices and fostering global industry. For better and for worse. Have a great day everyone!
I wouldn't gamble $250 for one reason...I'm they guy who will still buy a tent if it leaks in a review if I like it, why? Because tarps solve problems. With this one though I can't throw a tarp over it if I'm using a stove. Even if I use poles and the tarp doesn't touch, it could trap all that smoke. This is why we have you Luke...so we don't have to gamble. That's why this channel is invaluable.
Hello from Canada! I have purchased 2 of these for north of 400 bucks. I sent the first one back because the seams were not taped. I bought it again a few weeks later when reviews were saying they were seam-taped. But again, the tent I got was not taped. So far, I have not had it up and out in rain/snow. I look forward to your test results!
I have mine ordered: due here in first part of December hopefully. I wish it would have come in a couple of 4-season color schemes like light /dark color combo to absorb sunlight for additional warmth in cooler/colder months. I am curious if I am going to have to order a couple of additional stove pipes to get it well above the tent. This tent will definitely be a truck tent due to the weight of not only the tent but the stove. Thanks Luke, this appears to be a keeper for sure.
Absolutely. I have "ressurected" several old tent flys that didn't repel water anymore with scotchguard...and am still using them. A tent like this, I'd scotchguard it all and not look back. Thanks for the review...I might pull the trigger on this!
Thanks for reviewing, Luke. It looks like a lot of tent for the price, not least because of the stove jack. I like the design, and think it would be brilliant for my multi=-day motorcycle trips, as well as winter car-camping. The awning looks good but not big or high enough for anything really practical, but that's the only criticism I have.
I had a 1999 Expedition with the 5.4L that gave me 20 years of service with no major mechanical problems. Only changed plugs and oil. Great engine, Ford strong! 275K on the clock. Recently bought a 2016 Expedition with the 3.5 Ecoboost twin turbo. Love the rig and hope it gives me the same reliability.
Because of all the tents I have bought off of Aliexpress I would buy it in a heartbeat. They are always good. Unless you buy crap. And even then the crap ones don’t get you wet
The wife is very disappointed that you posted this video, because it's obviously a great tent that I need to own, but she says I already have two hot tents, and for some crazy reason she thinks that is enough?!?! Love the music at the end.
Just noticed this video. I purchased this tent two weeks ago directly from NatureHike. Still waiting for it. It appealed to me because my use case scenario will be for front country winter camping here in Alaska, with a hot tent stove to keep things a bit warm. I can't wait.
Yep I just order one. I had my eye on this but wasn't too sure. Because it was only 250 bucks. This is perfect. I'll add a few cans of silicon spray and a tarp to the order too. Thanks for the review.
This tent is awesome, after watching your videos, I ordered my on Amazon, waited a month and finally went camping last weekend. Love the tent, it work's very well with wood stove, I had a blast. My tent had different inner tent, it's all material but the top is mesh. Thank you for the video and ideas!!!
What a nice design! This is the tent I was looking for 20 years ago, when I camped every weekend. Now not so much now having a camper van. It's a shame, it's on sale here on Amazon Japan for $217. Usually they jack up the prices so, that's a pleasant surprise :)
I'm impressed by the form factor of this tent. Add a quality tarp to its configuration and you can have a nice shelter long term. $250 is a steal! I bought one of those orange pop-up tents to have for a nice size outdoor space while my van was used for sleeping only. I returned it as it was way too bulky and took up too much of my storage space which is a premium in a van. Plus, it cost over $300.
NatureHike tents have a reasonable reputation for being waterproof here in the UK so this tent will probably be waterproof. I would be surprised if it failed. Being a semi geodesic design will also be quite wind stable. A very interesting design especially for a hot tent. I just use a Vango Omega 600XL and have modified it into a hot tent for winter use for car camping with a Winnerwell Woodlander stove. The Vango Omega is over 8Kg but can easily accommodates 3-4 people and standing up in the tent is not a problem.
Wow…..can’t wait to see how this does for the overnight/rain test. ❤. Would I buy it before your review? No I would not. But you my friend I trust. Strength & honor are not just something you say. It is something you live by.
I went ahead and took that gamble before knowing if it was waterproof i purchased a CWZ 400 down sleeping bag from nature hike and was blwin away by the quality of the product i have a hard time thinking nature hike would sell any less quality with a tent there are also mods you can do if the tent does leak (sometimes personal gear mods are necessary when purchasing a product do them yourself!) it can be a fun project long story shorter great review thanks for your content great stuff!
I have a 2 person naturehike tent that's made from the same material. I used it in very heavy weather, wind and rain, and it kept me dry! It only cost me 100. Love to upgrade to have more space for my riding gear.
Luke…great review as always! What’s your music in your outro? I found myself cranking it up when I was ripping down the freeway in the middle of the Mojave desert. It’s almost like Airwolf meets A-Team meets Knight Rider. Very catchy tune!
I’ve been holding out for the perfect tent with the stove Jack. This checks all the boxes. Will be ordering. As well going with a wide cot so I can sleep like a baby. Hammock is fun but the snugness reduces my quality of sleep. I still love doing below freezing in it. However time to try hot tent camping. I do need a good winter sleep pad too. I got the top quilt and decent bag already. As well my under quilt could be used if I tried going real cold.
Impressive tent for such low price with wood stove setup! Can't wait for you to use it in Winter camping in the future, I could safely say you could easily make this camping trip with some luxury gadgets. I would say this is the most ideal bugout tent for emergency use in the wild.
Tent looks ooks really cool and functional, only thing left is to try it out during rain for waterproofing, and snow for strength and durability, nice review 🤪
I bought it this week as well. Set it up in my basement to check it out and looks great. One question I have is the stove jack. There is a small section of fire proof cloth with a hole it it, that looks fine. My concern is the silver nylon looking material that is around it. Is this silver fabric heat resistant? It looks like it has a waterproof coating and would melt with a chimney in it?
Love it. Bought the one Tigris Stella black tent cause of you. And 4 nights ago it was -2c in Niagara at night and frosted over during the night and I was warm with me my dog and a hotcore 20o -10c sleeping bag Full rain no leaks Prolly buy this one. Looks really good with a small stove
Luke ... please test and recommend a quick to set up tent that you can stand up in (ie at least 6 foot inside height). I know you and Susie tried the Gazelle and were not impressed. What do you recommend that doesn't have a bunch of super long poles that have to be fed into multiple sleeves etc. and takes a lot of time to set up and take down. (I have the Gazelle T4 and like it except there are times it is just too long and bulky when folded up.) Thanks.
I'd probably reinforce the tent with water sealant spray or something. If doing this would make it water proof enough, then I could easily deal for that price. Could always double the protection and hang a large tarp overhead if you're worried about bigger, longer storms or intense downpours. I think that with sealant, it might make it worth while. Great review, thanks. Really appreciate it.
I used mine in some heavy thunderstorms in northern Spain back in June and did not leak. 17 nights overall and performed perfectly. Great usability and perfect for motorcycle camping.
done hitting up check-out when i saw this vid. i searched but couldn’t find any reviews! now i just scrolled and this pop-out! 😅 glad j already ordered. same comments as someone who tested different kinds of tents - i think i will be niw satisfied with this tent!
Very interesting tent, and while 9.6kg is a bit much for backpacking I could realistically see leaving the inner tent and those big bulky awning poles at home for winter camping to drop a big chunk of the weight away. Though, I think for winter hot tent camping in the backcountry it really struggles to win vs a teepee style tent like a Rock Fortress which costs less money, has more room inside, and weighs half as much.
I've been happy with my Naturehike products over the last two years, but with international travel back on the agenda, the temporary buoyancy of the camping goods market here in China has sagged significantly and there are some good deals to be found. In this case, I'd absolutely take a shot at buying this tent and it's already on my wishlist now.
That looks amazing ! I have 2 naturhike tents and they are awesome for the price. My bet is it will be waterproof. Cant wait for you to test this bad boy out. Atb Graham 🇬🇧
Look's like a beautiful tent, someone could sleep on a cott in the open area another in the inner tent , wow hope it dosnt leak. great price for a hot tent .
This is just the kind of tent I have been looking for, but I would not purchase it before you determine if it is waterproof or not. It looks like it’s got a lot of pretty good features.
Usually Naturehike tents are pretty darn good with waterproofing. I took one on a week long backpacking trip to Philmont and loved it. But I am sure Luke will put this one through its paces and won't hold back if it leaks.
@@tinglestingles He put the tarp on it because the rain was getting under the awning and said he'd leak test it at a later date. There's no reason to expect it's going to leak as Naturehike tents typically don't. The only one I recall ever having a problem was the Cirrus and they took it off the market.

Thanks for great review…appreciate your honesty in saying NOT TESTED in rain YET!!!!! Keep on rocking!!!!! Awesome Chanel !!!!
Looking forward to seeing you test this out in the snow. Looks like a good option for car camping in the winter.
Nature hike is such a underrated company in the outdoor space.
Hello from Canada! I have purchased 2 of these for north of 400 bucks. I sent the first one back because the seams were not taped. I bought it again a few weeks later when reviews were saying they were seam-taped. But again, the tent I got was not taped. So far, I have not had it up and out in rain/snow. I look forward to your test results!
Love these kind of reviews. Temu always give you discounts so alot of the time you can even get it cheaper. Keep up the great reviews Luke.
I was ready for the review of this thing!!! I can't wait to see what happens when you test it out!
I have mine ordered: due here in first part of December hopefully. I wish it would have come in a couple of 4-season color schemes like light /dark color combo to absorb sunlight for additional warmth in cooler/colder months. I am curious if I am going to have to order a couple of additional stove pipes to get it well above the tent. This tent will definitely be a truck tent due to the weight of not only the tent but the stove. Thanks Luke, this appears to be a keeper for sure.
I can't find it. Can you share the link?
I would miss the snow even more with this tent.. ;)
I like it, for a basecamp setup.
Absolutely. I have "ressurected" several old tent flys that didn't repel water anymore with scotchguard...and am still using them. A tent like this, I'd scotchguard it all and not look back. Thanks for the review...I might pull the trigger on this!
Cool you mean

Thanks for reviewing, Luke. It looks like a lot of tent for the price, not least because of the stove jack. I like the design, and think it would be brilliant for my multi=-day motorcycle trips, as well as winter car-camping. The awning looks good but not big or high enough for anything really practical, but that's the only criticism I have.
I had a 1999 Expedition with the 5.4L that gave me 20 years of service with no major mechanical problems. Only changed plugs and oil. Great engine, Ford strong! 275K on the clock. Recently bought a 2016 Expedition with the 3.5 Ecoboost twin turbo. Love the rig and hope it gives me the same reliability.
Because of all the tents I have bought off of Aliexpress I would buy it in a heartbeat. They are always good. Unless you buy crap. And even then the crap ones don’t get you wet
What stove would be a good fit for this tent? Ive never used a hot tent but this one intrigues me!
The wife is very disappointed that you posted this video, because it's obviously a great tent that I need to own, but she says I already have two hot tents, and for some crazy reason she thinks that is enough?!?! Love the music at the end.
Great looking tent with unique and appreciated lines. Looks fantastic for 1 and a dog for a winter outing.
Just noticed this video. I purchased this tent two weeks ago directly from NatureHike. Still waiting for it. It appealed to me because my use case scenario will be for front country winter camping here in Alaska, with a hot tent stove to keep things a bit warm. I can't wait.
Yep I just order one. I had my eye on this but wasn't too sure. Because it was only 250 bucks. This is perfect. I'll add a few cans of silicon spray and a tarp to the order too. Thanks for the review.
This tent is awesome, after watching your videos, I ordered my on Amazon, waited a month and finally went camping last weekend. Love the tent, it work's very well with wood stove, I had a blast. My tent had different inner tent, it's all material but the top is mesh. Thank you for the video and ideas!!!
What a nice design! This is the tent I was looking for 20 years ago, when I camped every weekend. Now not so much now having a camper van.
It's a shame, it's on sale here on Amazon Japan for $217.
Usually they jack up the prices so, that's a pleasant surprise :)
the tent looks very interesting. So much space inside and out.
I'm impressed by the form factor of this tent. Add a quality tarp to its configuration and you can have a nice shelter long term. $250 is a steal! I bought one of those orange pop-up tents to have for a nice size outdoor space while my van was used for sleeping only. I returned it as it was way too bulky and took up too much of my storage space which is a premium in a van. Plus, it cost over $300.
NatureHike tents have a reasonable reputation for being waterproof here in the UK so this tent will probably be waterproof. I would be surprised if it failed. Being a semi geodesic design will also be quite wind stable. A very interesting design especially for a hot tent. I just use a Vango Omega 600XL and have modified it into a hot tent for winter use for car camping with a Winnerwell Woodlander stove. The Vango Omega is over 8Kg but can easily accommodates 3-4 people and standing up in the tent is not a problem.
Great review, that little side awning looks good for a motorbike cover if someone goes motorbike camping
Wow…..can’t wait to see how this does for the overnight/rain test. ❤. Would I buy it before your review? No I would not. But you my friend I trust. Strength & honor are not just something you say. It is something you live by.
its Temu, just hose it down to see how waterproof it is - not sure why he just didn't test it here???
Winter bikepacking this tent looks perfect I could even put my bike inside
I can't wait for the water proof test and then I'll make a decision for myself. Great review so far. Thanks Luke!
Gambling?? You Betcha! Thanks Luke! Awesome review… if your impressed I’m not worried! 🇺🇸
Dude this is the second tent im buying bc of your channel awesome man ty
I went ahead and took that gamble before knowing if it was waterproof i purchased a CWZ 400 down sleeping bag from nature hike and was blwin away by the quality of the product i have a hard time thinking nature hike would sell any less quality with a tent there are also mods you can do if the tent does leak (sometimes personal gear mods are necessary when purchasing a product do them yourself!) it can be a fun project long story shorter great review thanks for your content great stuff!
Looks pretty cool, if it’s waterproof definitely!
Wow! This looks pretty cool. I hope it survives all the testing.
Wow! Very nice! Great Review Luke! Cant wait to see more of it!
Looks like a very good product. Can't wait to see the environmental test, hopefully with a wood stove. Good Stuff.
I have a 2 person naturehike tent that's made from the same material. I used it in very heavy weather, wind and rain, and it kept me dry! It only cost me 100. Love to upgrade to have more space for my riding gear.
Wow.. This tent may be the solution I was looking for.. Definitely keeping an eye for more reviews on this one.
Luke…great review as always! What’s your music in your outro? I found myself cranking it up when I was ripping down the freeway in the middle of the Mojave desert. It’s almost like Airwolf meets A-Team meets Knight Rider. Very catchy tune!
I’ve been holding out for the perfect tent with the stove Jack. This checks all the boxes. Will be ordering. As well going with a wide cot so I can sleep like a baby. Hammock is fun but the snugness reduces my quality of sleep. I still love doing below freezing in it. However time to try hot tent camping. I do need a good winter sleep pad too. I got the top quilt and decent bag already. As well my under quilt could be used if I tried going real cold.
Looks like a really cozy tent for car camping
Impressive tent for such low price with wood stove setup! Can't wait for you to use it in Winter camping in the future, I could safely say you could easily make this camping trip with some luxury gadgets.
I would say this is the most ideal bugout tent for emergency use in the wild.
Tent looks ooks really cool and functional, only thing left is to try it out during rain for waterproofing, and snow for strength and durability, nice review 🤪
This Tent looks Impressive Luke, I am looking forward to your full Review of this tent, thank you my Brother.
I jumped on buying this from Temu. I'm so glad I did.
This tent seems decent for the price. Thank you Luke
I bought it this week as well. Set it up in my basement to check it out and looks great. One question I have is the stove jack. There is a small section of fire proof cloth with a hole it it, that looks fine. My concern is the silver nylon looking material that is around it. Is this silver fabric heat resistant? It looks like it has a waterproof coating and would melt with a chimney in it?
I thank you for your video and time. Think I will be purchasing one. Solo winter camp. Hot tent too.
I gambled in the summer on this from Ali Express. Been impressed so far and survived in wind and rain fine so far.
We got this tent on Amazon and loving it 😊
Looks like I will be ordering one! Was seriously just talking with the wife about a hot tent adventure in the snow this year!
Love it. Bought the one Tigris Stella black tent cause of you. And 4 nights ago it was -2c in Niagara at night and frosted over during the night and I was warm with me my dog and a hotcore 20o -10c sleeping bag Full rain no leaks Prolly buy this one. Looks really good with a small stove
We are getting towards winter, winter test would be good especially with the stove jack, i expect it wouldn't take much to heat up.
Luke ... please test and recommend a quick to set up tent that you can stand up in (ie at least 6 foot inside height). I know you and Susie tried the Gazelle and were not impressed. What do you recommend that doesn't have a bunch of super long poles that have to be fed into multiple sleeves etc. and takes a lot of time to set up and take down. (I have the Gazelle T4 and like it except there are times it is just too long and bulky when folded up.) Thanks.
Looking forward to the testing stage with this sharp looking tent.
When I first designed and make this tent it was only 3.2kg, a lot of new features have added to the weight, including the choice of materials
I'd probably reinforce the tent with water sealant spray or something. If doing this would make it water proof enough, then I could easily deal for that price. Could always double the protection and hang a large tarp overhead if you're worried about bigger, longer storms or intense downpours. I think that with sealant, it might make it worth while.
Great review, thanks. Really appreciate it.
I used mine in some heavy thunderstorms in northern Spain back in June and did not leak. 17 nights overall and performed perfectly.
Great usability and perfect for motorcycle camping.
Yes, I would buy it! I love your channel ❤
i am going to pick this up. nice review. seems like the perfect winter car camping tent.
done hitting up check-out when i saw this vid. i searched but couldn’t find any reviews! now i just scrolled and this pop-out! 😅 glad j already ordered. same comments as someone who tested different kinds of tents - i think i will be niw satisfied with this tent!
Very interesting tent, and while 9.6kg is a bit much for backpacking I could realistically see leaving the inner tent and those big bulky awning poles at home for winter camping to drop a big chunk of the weight away. Though, I think for winter hot tent camping in the backcountry it really struggles to win vs a teepee style tent like a Rock Fortress which costs less money, has more room inside, and weighs half as much.
I've been happy with my Naturehike products over the last two years, but with international travel back on the agenda, the temporary buoyancy of the camping goods market here in China has sagged significantly and there are some good deals to be found. In this case, I'd absolutely take a shot at buying this tent and it's already on my wishlist now.
I could see this as a great tent for motorcycle packing with a side car. Load everything up and get out in the winter
I love it has sleeping area and a screened inside common area for cooking etc
Really love my Nature hike tent.
Even if it leaks at seams, sealing seams is what needed to be done on virtually every new tent a few decades ago.
Solid content, sir. You have one more subscriber.
Can't wait to see a trip with this tent and a stove. Being up north in MN I'm very interested in this one. Would love to get into hot tent camping.
Bro your outro is sick. I love it
great winter camping setup!
That looks amazing !
I have 2 naturhike tents and they are awesome for the price.
My bet is it will be waterproof.
Cant wait for you to test this bad boy out.
Atb Graham 🇬🇧
Im using mongar 2 with the extension for 2 years now and looks like its time to buy this tent for our car camping set up. thank you
Look's like a beautiful tent, someone could sleep on a cott in the open area another in the inner tent , wow hope it dosnt leak. great price for a hot tent .
Awesome review my dood. I've been looking for a decent truck camping tent for winter with the buds and this is going on the list.
This is just the kind of tent I have been looking for, but I would not purchase it before you determine if it is waterproof or not. It looks like it’s got a lot of pretty good features.
Usually Naturehike tents are pretty darn good with waterproofing. I took one on a week long backpacking trip to Philmont and loved it. But I am sure Luke will put this one through its paces and won't hold back if it leaks.
why is he so scared of testing with some water on it? Answer Temu.
@@tinglestingles He put the tarp on it because the rain was getting under the awning and said he'd leak test it at a later date. There's no reason to expect it's going to leak as Naturehike tents typically don't. The only one I recall ever having a problem was the Cirrus and they took it off the market.
So cool deal. Can't wait for the water proof review
