Also one man tent
Couldn't resist a bargain. Just got a one man tent reduced from £19.99 down to £9.99. It's green and packs small and looks good.
Ideal luxury compared to a bivvi bag.
I lived in a cheap tent for months and I'm only replacing it because the zip went at some point, my heavy hands fault.
But this looks to be an ideal replacement.I could fit two in a squeeze so hope the new one will too.
I've just done the monthly nikwax quiz and won some tent proof so once that comes I'll give it a once over.
I spent the money saved on hobgoblin
OK I just noticed that spell check changed Aldi to also!
Just unpacked the tent will keep 2 heavy steel pegs for hard ground but the rest will be replaced with my light ones.
Material is olive green wp fly then no seeum inner with thick material base(last one was this too it keeps water out better than the thin stuff and if it holes then gaffa tape fixes to it easy).
It pitches inner first which is a blessing when it's hot and a hindrance in a monsoon!
The tent bag is a flimsy affair and will be put aside as I keep my kit in dry bags
The best bit last it packs down small and weighs sub 1.5 kgs
You get what you pay for; well at ten quid with a 3 year no quibble warranty this may just prove to be a proper bargain.
Check local Aldi stores, save money buy
