OEX Lightweight Rakoon II Tent with Double Entrances for 2 people, 2 Man Tent, Ideal for Backpacking and Wild Camping, Camping Equipment, Green, One Size

Product Information

If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. My only gripe is that it's not necessarily 100% obvious that the tent poles connect to the corners of the same side, not the opposite side, unless you've seen one without the flysheet on. Pitching is more difficult than it needs to be due to lack of colour coded poles and clips which make it confusing getting the right clips onto the poles. This 2014 version has a re-designed single flysheet door, to provide a greater porch area for gear storage or cooking.

Robens Trapper 4 Person Tent reviews, Vango Beta 350XL Tent reviews or Vango Nova 300 Geo Tent reviews. There will be some products that are amazing quality and packed full of additional features or specifications, but do take the time to really get an idea if you need that level of quality or if your budget and needs mean you should get something else. My partner and I have bought this tent for our bike packing adventure and I must admit it’s been great so far: I appreciate how compact it was in laying it out on bikes and the time of setting it up (around 8 mins - we did a time lapse from it). How easy/expensive is it to get replacement poles ie I could get the Rakoon, and if the tent body was as good as the reviews suggest, I could ‘upgrade’ to the aluminium ones for better weight and robustness.The whole thing packs a way into two small carry bags and weighs less than 3kg, making it extremely transportable on longer expeditions. The OEX Rakoon 2 is a compact and lightweight backpacking tent that is ready to shelter you from the elements.

However, if you’re still on the fence and want to look at some more options, here are some great alternatives to consider. From your local crag to the summit of Everest, at Tiso, you’ll find the climbing and mountaineering equipment you need. There are entrances at either side for easy access and the whole thing packs away into two small carry bags.

This is of course really helpful, but there’s almost too much information available, so it’s important to know exactly what you’re looking for. Reviews of Oex tents appear to be pretty positive re the build quality, has anyone had a different experience? The Vango Solaris 400 AirBeam® tent is great in all weathers, but it truly shines on sunnier days on the campsite.

My only gripe with this tent was the fact that the fly sheet goes on separate so leaving you vulnerable to rain whilst setting up .Whether you're going out for the weekend or cycling across continents, bicycletouring is a community of individuals who share this passion. Seems to hold up well in wind and rain and really like that you can change the tension on the fly sheet too. The Vango Tempest 200 is a lightweight, roomy and sturdily constructed tent, suitable for quick camping in fair or trying conditions.

You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. Made with a lightweight, durable fabric and a waterproof flysheet the OEX Rakoon II Person Tent will withstand wet windy weather.

Camp on my own so it has enough room for a single blow up mattress and you can bring your gear from outside. My brother has taken long term custody of ours (he does use it more) so having a ‘back up’ one would be handy. Its low-profile semi-geodesic dome design keeps it stable in windy weather, and it packs away to a very compact size so it's ideal for quick stops and expeditions. In fact they probably fit in the final segment we mentioned above whereby they deliver a fantastic overall package. This 2-man tent has a fantastic Hydrostatic rating of 5000, internal storage pockets, lantern handing points and double entrances.
