In which weatherconditions was the trekking tent used?
„From sunshine to rain with strong winds.“
How many people have stayed in the tent?
„2 adults“
What was the first impression and packaging of the trekking tent like?
„Lightweight and compact. The supplied air pump has about the same dimensions as the packed tent. Unfortunately, no assembly instructions were included and also no indication of the filling pressure.“
How easy was the setup during the first test?
„Our procedure was as follows: Put on the tent, fix it with 2 pegs and after 5-6 times pumping the tent stood. The remaining aluminum rings hammer in and ready was the construction. We have from the tent from the car to get tent is ready for about 10 minutes needed.“
How comfortable is the tent?
„Surprisingly good, because it is inside yet larger than it looks from the outside. :-)
Sitting upright, my husband is e.g. 1.86 m tall, is possible in the tent without any problems.“
How practical is weight and packing size?
„It is smaller and lighter than my rolled up sleeping bag. The pump, on the other hand, is clearly oversized.“
How good do you find the colour and construction?
„We really like the color and the design has performed very well in high winds.“
How easy is the trekking tent to take down and pack up?
„Plug out, fold up, roll up and you're done.“
How positive do you judge the price-performance ratio of the tent?
„There are cheaper, but the light weight and easy assembly and disassembly is worth every euro.“
Overall impression:
„A small and lightweight tent that provides good bad weather protection for 2 adults. Ideal for the short trip.“

Test report from 10.05.2017
How long could you test the trekking tent?
„Actually, it was planned to test the tent 10 days on Easter vacation in the Allgäu. Erik and Mats have then but only 2 nights slept in it, because we had a winter onset and got 30 cm of snow within 48 hours.“
Where did the test of the trekking tent take place?
„On a meadow in the Allgäu, at a farm near Füssen.“
In which weatherconditions was the trekking tent used?
„The weather was dry and sunny during the day, at night it was about 5-8° C.“
How many people have stayed in the tent?
„2 people aged 14 and 11.“
What was the first impression and packaging of the trekking tent like?
„The tent was packed with the air pump, unfortunately we did not manage to pack that again together afterwards.“
How easy was the setup during the first test?
„The kids put up the tent all by themselves! It really is very easy and we have never had a tent to inflate.“
How comfortable is the tent?
„The tent is small, but sufficient for 2 people with little luggage.“
How practical is weight and packing size?
„The tent is small to pack and easy to carry.“
How good do you find the colour and construction?
„The color is very nice, in nature fit for us no bright colors. The construction we find great! Even better than a pop up tent and of course much better than one with fiberglass poles. Also the air pump is very high quality and still for many other things when camping to use.“
How easy is the trekking tent to take down and pack up?
„The assembly is very simple, when dismantling it is a little difficult to get the air out of the hose.“
How positive do you judge the price-performance ratio of the tent?
„The price is ok for the very good quality. We have not yet tested it in the rain, but the covered porch is very practical.“
Overall impression:
„The tent makes a good, stable and high-quality impression. We will still have a lot of fun with it!“

Test report from 06.05.2017
How long could you test the trekking tent?

„In our garden“
In which weatherconditions was the trekking tent used?
„During the day clouds and sun alternate, at night light rain.“
How many people have stayed in the tent?
„two persons“
What was the first impression and packaging of the trekking tent like?
„Handy and due to its light weight ideal for taking along on a bike tour!“
How easy was the setup during the first test?
„Easy, fast and uncomplicated assembly.“
How comfortable is the tent?
„For a short trip or with the bike or simply times for 1-2 nights absolutely sufficient.“
How practical is weight and packing size?
„Super!“
How good do you find the colour and construction?
„Colorwise not necessarily our favorite....z.B. Orange tones are times something different to the currently predominantly in green tents. Construction, on the other hand, is absolutely top! However, we could unfortunately not check whether a longer stay under strong sunlight makes us still so rave.“
How easy is the trekking tent to take down and pack up?
„As already described - super easy handling-“
How positive do you judge the price-performance ratio of the tent?
„Price - performance ratio is very good.“
Overall impression:
„We are very satisfied after the short test use and look forward to use the tent on the planned bike tour in the summer!“

Test report from 05.05.2017
How long could you test the trekking tent?
„Two nights“
Where did the test of the trekking tent take place?
„In the meadow ground of Eibach“
In which weatherconditions was the trekking tent used?
„Very mixed, the nights were quite fresh“
How many people have stayed in the tent?
„I was alone“
What was the first impression and packaging of the trekking tent like?
„It was very compact and clear.“
How easy was the setup during the first test?
„For a layman a bit complicated. For me as an experienced camper relatively self-explanatory and fast. It can also be stretched very well. The pegs are very good. Negatively, I must unfortunately note that the tub for the awning is attached much too loose. Here, a continuous Velcro closure would be advantageous. Also, the awning itself is already very small. I am 1.92m tall and so really much space I have unfortunately not had. Also, a real assembly instructions are not available, which makes it somewhat difficult for laymen.“
How comfortable is the tent?
„For a person over 1.85m it is already a bit tight. For two tall people it is devenetiefst not suitable.“
How practical is weight and packing size?
„Fits really very well. Held very compact.“
How good do you find the colour and construction?
„The idea with the air linkage I find super, unfortunately, no patch kit is available if times something would leak. The color is beautiful but attracts loads of mosquitoes etc.. In a darker color it would make more sense.“
How easy is the trekking tent to take down and pack up?
„As said for laymen somewhat difficult without assembly instructions. For experienced campers self-explanatory.“
How positive do you judge the price-performance ratio of the tent?
„In my opinion it is a bit expensive for the little space you have. And it is more of a one man tent. Or for two children. Also, the awning tub is unfortunately a little too small and much too loosely attached. Here should be worked in any case after (eg. A continuous Velcro closure).“
Overall impression:
„Good quality, for experienced campers simple and quick assembly. Overall very coherent“

Test report from 02.05.2017
How long could you test the trekking tent?
„Just under 2 months“
Where did the test of the trekking tent take place?
„In the garden“
In which weatherconditions was the trekking tent used?
„Sunshine and no frost“
How many people have stayed in the tent?
„2 children“
What was the first impression and packaging of the trekking tent like?
„Handy and solidly packed“
How easy was the setup during the first test?
„Quick and understandable to set up. Unusual is that without pegs the tent falls to the side“
How comfortable is the tent?
„Big enough. The floor should perhaps have been inflatable, then it would be even more comfortable. Otherwise, everything is okay for the size.“
How practical is weight and packing size?
„Very light weight and pack size“
How good do you find the colour and construction?
„The paint is insensitive and looks good. Construction is amazingly simple“
How easy is the trekking tent to take down and pack up?
„Dismantling and folding is very simple. With a little skill, the tent with air pump has also fit back into the pack bag.“
How positive do you judge the price-performance ratio of the tent?
„Since the tent is only to be used for temporary overnight stays of the children in the garden or short trips, the price is still quite high. However, under extreme conditions (storm and / or rain, long transport distances), the price for the tent may be justified.“
Overall impression:
„Lightweight, small pack size and quick and easy to assemble.“
