I'm looking for a decent tent thats durable and doesn't cost more than £100. hopefully under 2kg. im 6ft tall so that also might be a consideration.
I don't have any experience with single wall tents, but i don't like the sound of condensation and the need for a thicker sleeping bag, so id rather have a tent with flysheet and inner. id also rather be enclosed so hammocks and tarp/bivvy arnt really my thing.
i was interested in the gelert solo http://www.outdoormegastore.co.uk/acatalog/Gelert_Solo_Backpacking_Tent.html
but i have concerns over its durability over several months of touring. if possible id like something similar with better quality construction.
i am however struggling to find many alternatives that arnt entering the expensive range, and outdoor shops rarely have any 1 man tents to view. anyone with some experience?
