    I've got the navy version of the Mongar which is slightly lighter than these. I am in love with how much space there is inside. 2 people can comfortably sit upright at either end. Helps during the pack up as both people can be inside without being in each other's faces.

    • Is it easy to setup?

      • +1

        Very easy I think. Watch a few videos on it being set up and you'll see it has quite a neat system

      • One of the easier hiking tents I've set up, yeah

  • +1

    Nice recommendation, even the non-sale price isn't too bad.

    I'll save this for later, when I can get out camping again!

  • +2

    Great tent, just got back from using mine for the first time and couldn't be happier. Held up great in strong wind too

    • Does the fly stay attached when setting up/taking down? Or is it erect the tent then throw the fly on after?

      Thanks

      • +1

        Looks like a solid knock off of the MSR Hubba Hubba. If it is, then you can put the fly on and have that free standing while popping or dropping the inner tent.

      • +1

        Yeah you can erect the frame and then put the rain fly on before the inner. Good for setting up in the rain

  • Wish we could get some more of the Naturehike range locally.

    • +1

      Amazon has quite a bit?

      • Yeah I've managed to grab some stuff I've been chasing off Amazon. It's annoying that their international store seems to be priced a fair bit higher.

  • +2

    Thanks OP got one. I have been looking for a tent for a while and the Hubba Hubba is amazing so I am happy with a clone at this price. Hopefully it's good!

  • So lighter than the Cloud-Up 2, but roomier, truly free-standing (Cloud-up needs one rope on each side) , and only a little more expensive. Nice.

    Any disadvantages? Seems to be the same structure style - inner clips onto poles, but an extra pole to hold the sides out.

    • Does Cloud-up need a rope each side to prevent the fly touching the tent, that is the inner layer fabric?

      Re the Mongar model from this deal: Why does it look like two different tents in the seller's photos? A couple of them show the tent without its fly, but with an extra roofed vestibule. And the photo that shows all the parts doesn't list that extra vestibule/porch.

      edit: See my comment below, the vestibule might be sold separately.

      • +1

        Cloud-up needs the 2 ropes to stop the sides sagging in, especially if raining.
        Inner tent is mesh, same as this and other ultra-light tents.

    • Cloud Up 2 210T polyester is slightly heavier, but the same 20D nylon as this Mongar is lighter at 1.75kg

  • The photos shows there's a vestibule that the Amazon listing has as a "sold separately". $109.00 and 700g extra.

    Do we know if this deal includes the vestibule, like the ebay photos suggest or is it just to fool us?

    • does not include the foyer vestibule, just shows that it has add-ons that are compatible I guess. The interior of the tent does have two storage-like vestibules for bags/packs etc if that's your concern

      • Thanks and nah, my sole concern is that extra, very visible and functional vestibule shown in photos but, well, not included.

  • +1

    If it isn't clear for some, worth noting that:
    army green material = 210T polyester
    other colours = 20D nylon
    hence the price difference

    • Any weight difference?

      I read a lot of contradictory info comparing nylon to polyester. It seems we should worry about the strength, etc of the final fabric, and not worry about which chemical they used.

      With no specs given on the materials here, we can only guess that the more expensive one is better? (either lighter or stronger?)
      In Australia, I'm most interested in how UV-resistant it is, and some sources say nylon is much more vulnerable to that.

      • based on my comment below I'd conclude that the nylon would be lighter and stronger

      • 20D is 2150g
        210T is 2.4kg

        Prob without the footprint

  • +1

    Slight weight difference,
    apparently 210T is 2.5kg vs 20D 2.2kg

    As for the contradictory info, I've read pretty much the same stuff as you I guess, to summarise:
    20D Nylon can be far thinner and lighter than 210T polyester.
    210T Polyester stretches far less than 20D nylon when wet.
    20D Nylon's Waterproof index is 4000 higher than 210T Polyster's 3000.
    210T Polyester is less tear resistant at the same strength than 20D nylon, ergo: Polyester must be thicker and therefore heavier than nylon in order to maintain the same tear resistance.

    I went with the 210T to see how it holds up in the long-run, had the same concern as you with the UV so that partially influenced my choice

    Good tent if you want to take it hiking, AKA you're gonna be carrying it. Especially if you can split with a tent buddy, up to 2.5kg is decent.

    Probably not a great tent to buy if you want a cheap tent for yourself or for kids to use car camping around the bush
    - It is made of delicate materials that need extra care
    - It is 2-person but close quarters and need fairly narrow hiking style mats to fit
    - UV resistance probably not excellent

    If you're after a cheap car-camp tent I'd recommend something hardier that can take a bit more abuse.

    This tent seems really cool and is on my shortlist, at $206 for a 3-person (can fit 4 kids in it sideways)

    Or $189 for a 2-person (roomier than this Mongar tent)
