How tall are you? Because the lanshan 1 and 2 arent that long. Naturehike has some freestanding tents that weight as much as the lanshan including poles. You can find them on aliexpress.

6ft when my posture’s good, and I like to point my toes to stretch, so the more I research them the less suitable they become.
Not sure how accessible Go Outdoors is, but I want to try the OEX options. I’ll have the same weight but the Phoxx II is definitely bigger, and the Bobcat might be just about long enough with a tarp. Thinking Bobcat for headroom when sitting, Phoxx II for length laying down.
My Backpacker 2 is just under 850mm height inside so even 900mm will feel like an improvement. 1000mm would be great but most are pushing weight up past 2kg.
Hmm.

After two nights in the garden in the backpacker tent, I’ve decided I’m too long for it.
By the looks of pack weight and price, the Lanshan has practically zero competitors, right? I’ve re-read all the previous pages and Platypus’ comments, just struggling to find any other sub-1.5kg tent with as much room.
Was thinking about the larger 2-person, as its claimed weight is only a few grams more right? But I’d need two poles? Must research moar.
