Been eyeing this tent for a couple months. Can't wait to see the full review.

Yeah it's a great looking tent. I can't wait to test it out for real. Not too long now I hope (weather has been terrible for filming it!)

Strange they are displaying the Base camp sleeping bags as I thought they were discontinued. There’s some good deals on the base camp bags ATM. Two can be zipped together to form a double. Robens do have some great designs with their tents and some of their gear but some looks like rebranded Chinese stuff.

Unfortunately, there's actually a big problem in reverse, with many look-a-likes being created in various factories, but to a lesser quality (thinner/wrong material, details missed). Sometimes you have to get your hands on with some items to feel the difference with more solid materials and better precision engineering. 😀 I've seen photos from the Robens designers taking prototypes on expeditions into the wilds of Northern Scandinavia so that they can test and refine designs. The products are designed by real campers that are very passionate about their products, and can talk in great detail as to why a feature was designed in such a way. So it's always disappointing when cheaper fakes appear, which typically miss the whole point of why something was designed in such a way.

@@GetoutwiththekidsCoUk I have a lot of Robens gear, two tents, chairs,table, camp kitchen (which was an excellent design) Base camp sleeping bags, cookery king and it’s all been excellent. The cookery king has the unique feature of the lower wind shied base being removable so and gas stove that can be used as long it’s dimensions don’t exceed the diameter of the base. On the Chinese websites an almost identical stove can be bought without the unique feature, which came first I wonder. Anyway I think Robens is a very good brand and their tent wind testing is very reassuring.

Klondike tent goes above 1k. Too expensive for me.
