For some beginners, it is particularly important to choose a suitable tent when camping in the wild, otherwise there will be various problems at night. The following is what you need to pay attention to when purchasing.
1. Weight
This is an important parameter of outdoor equipment. Under the same performance, the weight is inversely proportional to the price, while the performance is basically proportional to the weight.
Simply say, equipment with excellent performance and light weight requires a certain amount of money, whether it is mountaineering bags, sportswear, sleeping bags or tents.
For a double tent, it is super light if the weight is less than 1.5 kg, normal if the weight is less than 2 kg.
2. Comfort
Whether the tent is comfortable or not is the first thing to pay attention to. The larger the tent is, the more comfortable it is. Personally, I think it is a bit crowded for two men to sleep in a 1.3-meter-wide double tent. However, too large tent will lead to weight increase, so we need to think about it.
If you are camping out and feel that the double tents are too crowded, you can consider buying a three person account directly.
The second is the number and size of the entrance hall. Obviously, the tunnel tent with a single door in the front is not as convenient as the round tent with two doors. The advantage of the entrance hall is that if it catches the rainy weather, you can light a fire and cook in the entrance hall
3. Installment
Many people ignore this,, which is troublesome when they need to camp urgently in case of bad weather or sudden rainstorm.
Simply say: the fewer poles, the easier it is to build.
In addition, whether the external tent can be set up first during the construction, so that when it is built in rainy days, the external tent can be set up first and then set up the internal tent, and the internal tent can be collected first and then the external account can be collected to avoid getting wet.
4. Windproof and waterproof
The strength and structure of the tent play a leading role.
There is also the skill of building. Some people didn’t even use the ground nail or the wind rope. As a result, the tent was lifted by the strong wind in the middle of the night and they have to came out in the rain to set up the tent again. This is a typical wrong.
5. A set of camping equipment
If you have never seen a tent before, you should pay attention when purchasing a tent. Camping equipment is more than a set of tents.
The tent includes external tent, internal tent, tent pole, ground nail, wind rope, etc. you also need to buy a mat that meets the size of the tent, as well as your own favorite moisture-proof mat and sleeping bag to form a complete set of camping equipment.
