Sierra Designs Mothership 8 Person Four-Season Tent Review

WOOOOWWW, this tent is amazing, I got 10 of them, and install them to my back yard for fun. They worked perfectly. Price is great. You should get one for you, one for your girl friend and one for your girl friends ex boyfriend. This tent is 5 star and installation is almost instant, you just throw the tent in to air and it installs itself. Yes you heard me, get one, don't think, buy, buy, buy, please buy.

The Mothership with rainfly and vestibule. Features

CAD Design: Computer Aided Design helps Sierra Designs make technically superior tents, allowing them to have a uniform distribution of stress

Clip-Locs: Dynamically locks poles at their intersection, adds 60 percent to the tent's strength

Color-Coded Webbing: Guides pole placement for speed and ease of set-up and allows for quick orientation of rainfly set-up (color-coded on stake loops and on rainfly).

DAC Poles: Thicker diameter poles with a thinner wall increases strength and saves weight. Unique joining insert allows for a cleaner, smoother transition in Reverse Combi Technology (RCT). DAC has greatly reduced the use of phosphoric and nitric acid in the anodizing process (cleaner manufacturing makes for a cleaner environment).

Dye-Free Optic White Canopy: Optic white canopies transmit light more effectively to give a brighter and more pleasant environment for long hours inside tent

Locking Pole Tips: Keeps pole tips locked in grommet for faster, easier set up.

Nite Ize Figure 9 Rope Tighteners: Fast and easy, the Figure 9 provides perfect tensioning every time. Simply secure the line through the eye anywhere along the line, pull to adjust tension, and secure.

Swift Clips: A Sierra Designs innovation that allows the tent to be staked out before attaching the body to the pole structure.

Tent Guard with Ultra Fresh: Applied as part of the PU coating to our rain flies, floors and footprints, Tent Guard extends the life of a tent by thwarting mold, mildew and fungus. Particularly on extended trips or in damp climates, Tent Guard protects a tent if it is packed or stored temporarily while wet.

MSR Stormking Tent 5-Person 4-Season Review

Just back from a high altitude trek in the Indian Himalaya and used the Storm King for 2 weeks for the first time. Must mention that the Storm King is a great buy. During the two weeks we were hit initially by rain, then hail and finally tons of snow at 5000m. On some days we had very strong winds as well. The Storm King held up very well and kept us dry and warm. Apart from 3 of us sleeping in the tent the Storm King also easily accomodated the full team of 8 to hang out togeather every afternoon/ evening. The internal height at 64 inches does creare a fair amount of space and you do feel comfortable even if you are a large group. Would strongly recommend the Storm King for those looking for a large expedition tent.

High Peak Endero Waterproofing Tent - 2500mm Review

This tent is light and rolls up easily with a good waterproof floor so no footprint is needed. The rain fly is a bit short, which in my view means this tent is not truly 4 season. It is relatively easy to set up, except it is quite challenging to thread the poles into the sleeves. I recommend buying a tent with an external frame rigging to avoid that difficulty. It was very sturdy against sustained 40 mph winds in Patagonia. The biggest problem with this tent (and the reason I rated it low) is because the pole and stake grommets were so badly crimped that most came out on first use. It also appears the zipper fabric will begin to tear after continued use because the fabric is quite thin and the fibers were beginning to separate after a couple of set ups. Still it is a good value for occasional use (if you don't mind replacing the grommets).
