I'd say the 6th thing many people may want to know before buying a tent is that unless you're a nice weather camper, do not get a tent that requires setting up the inner tent first; it's going to get soaked when you need to pitch it in rainy conditionsbrbrAlso if you're a first time camper in Europe, consider just getting a Decathlon pop-up tent It's quite hard to beat them at anything but packing size at this price range

If you own a half dome literally anywhere one of my friends set his up woke up in 3 inches of puddle and it didn't leak sitting there for 3 days

my favorite part about the tents with a vestibule is the ability to make fires while there's torrential downpour outside

Tony Hobbs
Maybe that's why a single wall tent has LESS condensation than double wall due to being cooler and probably more drafty Single wall type mid is the way to go

Good info I started out in the old canvas wall tent when I was a kid and progressed to a 2 man backpack tent for places like Philmont Scout ranch in NM and hiking Mt Washington in NH Got old and the wife insisted on a camper Now I am back to a canvas Kodiak Canvas truck tent Almost full circle I still have the old Eddie Bauer nylon (when they actually sold outdoor stuff) but it's 50 years old and would probably disintegrate in a breeze if I ever set it up Thanks for the video, brStay safe and God bless

Just use a tarp under tent

Vestibules are also great for keeping the rain out of the inner tent when entering/exiting I've got one tent with no vestibule to speak of and when you open the zips to get in/out, rain can come in through both inner and outer doors With a decent vestibule, you've got an area that shelters the inner door and you can have both open without rain pouring through and filling up the "bathtub"

It’s so stupid that the footprint doesn’t come with the tent

I personally would never eat in my tent or tent vestibule if I ever intend to use that tent in bear country Just my two cents

Roberto Chibbaro
Vestibule come from Latin: the language of ancient roman Vestibulum indicates the entrance space of an house or a temple
Comment from : Roberto Chibbaro


James Toole
So is a raincover considered the "second" wall? Or do they come double-walled like some hammocks?
Comment from : James Toole


Ro D
Nice Review I like to add that my layer down to the tent have plástic (protects better not only the floor tent and better insulation) to the lenght of the vestibule too Because there we enter normally crouching and you dont want to wet your knees in wet grass Just my xp Other advice Is look for the Gap between roof and floor Good tents have minimal gaps or none (lateral winds comes by the gaps)

justin hobbs
If you have your tent stakes like this ⛺ / facing inwards they will be more sturdy in wind and just overall
Comment from : justin hobbs


Sandra Oettle
Tip #1 omg! I have always purchased cheap tents until recently It came with an "extra" piece that I had no clue as to the use because I've always had to purchase my own tarps (aka footprint!) for this use Thank you

One major advantage of a vestibule is the ability to sit in your tent and cook when it is raining

Adam Grimsley
Vestibule is French?? HA HA
Comment from : Adam Grimsley


Eric Schwartz
I cannot justify the extra cost of a single wall tent to save a few ounces Caveat: I don't thru hike for weeks on end So, for less than $250 (now on sale for less than $200 @ REI) I used the Flash Air 1 and the tent is set up with trekking poles I also have the Flash Air 2 for when the wife comes along $700 to $800 or more for dyneema, feather light single wall tent doesn't make sense
Comment from : Eric Schwartz

I really appreciate how much you break everything down I've been loving how informative (and funny) your videos are, keep it up!
Comment from : Kibi D


Anoe Omus
And most of the single wall tents also have double reflective material along with vents keep that type of condensation from Gathering at least a good tent will have that so that kind of defeats your purpose of the whole having a double walled tent not to mention having a double wall 10 does not prevent you from having condensation dripped down on you I've used both types that you refer to and still had condensation drip on me not to mention with a double wall tent if you have a good wind storm you run the risk of having that outer layer ripped right off leaving you exposed to the elements

Mystic Meadows Homestead
> Use a tarp for your ground cloth and you Definitely want it to stick out from under your tent to form a "porch" so that you're not tracking mud, dirt, leaves, water into your tent Almost all campsites come with a mild slope to it, point your tent down the slope No worry of water coming inside
Comment from : Mystic Meadows Homestead


CaluKatastrophe
I chose my tents by what’s on sale at the time of shopping
Comment from : CaluKatastrophe


Justin Erickson
Should have mentioned how the rain fly in a good rain, or even when mornings are real dewy, should be staked out so it never touches the inner wall anywhere Not doing the stakes for the rain fly when it going to rain a ton is a real noob thing to do “The walls of my tent are wet?!” “Noooob”
Comment from : Justin Erickson


KaeYoss
I like watching videos about camping and outdoors stuff, while staying indoors except for maybe light strolls brbrWe as humans invented houses like 12000 years ago because we decided staying put is better and that we should only have a casual relationship at best with the outside And I respect thatbrbrPlus, camping is illegal It's a crime They call it loitering within tent!
Comment from : KaeYoss


Gerald Prost
You only need a ground cloth if you are pitching your tent on a gravel padbrbrYou don’t want to eat in your vestibule if you’re in bear country
Comment from : Gerald Prost


Gustav Thurfjell
The extra grams for having a dubble walled tent is always going to be worth it for me
Comment from : Gustav Thurfjell


Tony Hobbs
In ten years of camping on YouTube I've never used a foot print but is that because you're camping in woods on ground with bits of litter ie bits of sticks from those trees I am on more open moorland grassy areas
Comment from : Tony Hobbs


Andy Cross
But do you buy inner pitch first or outer pitch first?
Comment from : Andy Cross


Sal Sanchez

Proper 🙋🏼‍♂️ question here… do you actually fit in that tent ? ⛺️
Comment from : Big D


PandaTheGreen
Here in Belgium everyone gets introduced to tents because of camp sites at music festivals Basically everyone gets the same brand from a European sports and camping store (Decathlon) which are known to have great quality, cheap, double walled pop-up tents that are insanely easy to set up They go for around €60 and I've been using mine for about 6-8 years now
Comment from : PandaTheGreen


AOKONE
It’s called “bathtub floor” because IF and or WHEN water eventually get in, you’ll have a bathtub

The real value of a vestibule is a spot to put your muddy shoes where they won't get hit by the rain causing said mud

LiiMuRi
My first tent cost about 50 euros/dollars I used it everywhere, North Europe, the Alps, Australia and New Zealand, Brazil, Andes, Sierra Nevada, It didn't have any bells and whistles, and it wasn't super light, but it worked You can start basic
Comment from : LiiMuRi


Jez in Japan
But it also depends on the climate of where you're campingback in the UK, I'd always camped in a double layer, smaller tent But now in Japan where it's very hot & humid, I've gone for a large, single layer with wide windows
Comment from : Jez in Japan


Hendrik Brouwer
Thank you so much for this clear beginner guide!
Comment from : Hendrik Brouwer


Charles Polk
Hey Dan, great video I agreed with nearly everything you said except the guy line tightening statement When one is in windy conditions, the wind acts on the fly like a big sail and given the surface area it can whip the fly with a lot of force Tents with looser guy lines enable the tent to be whipped by the wind and the shock of the guy stopping that movement when the slack in the guy is used up puts a lot of strain on the reinforcement which can begin to tear it loose Guy lines should be taut, not like the cables of a suspension bridge, for sure, but enough to prevent the fly/guy combo from being yanked An modification to the guy system that one could make is to add a small elastic bugee about three or four inches long between a pair of loops tied in the guy line so that when staked, the bungee is under tension but there is a bit of slack in the guy line When pushed by the wind, the elastic can "snub" the force before the guy reaches the end of it's slack and lessen the snapping of the fly I learned about this from some mountaneers while doing some winter hiking in the Cascades
