...if it's just me, and besides, a bigger tent would take up more room leaving less for whatever I'm carrying. It's something hikers and bikers consider, too, so the size of this tent is perfect. I simply strap it to the ceiling of the van out the way of me or the load.
Now, being the first 1-mantent I've had, I thought I'd get to my local camping shop to have a look at what was available. Most of the big names had similar tents, but this one offered the right tent at the right price. The rest either had looks or colours to put me off or were too pricey for what they were. The Coleman Viper was just right... for me, at least!
When I decided on the Viper, though, I had a good look round it in the shop. I've never had a Coleman tent before so I didn't really know how good they were. But from what I saw, I was impressed. The quality and feel...

Advantages: Lightweight, Easy to Erect, Great Value Disadvantages: Porch uncovered when front door open
...I bought this tent for a 2 night stay for just myself to use. I bought it from Go Outdoors for just £25 although other websites and shops sell them at a little more than this, most of them retail at around £35.
First of all it comes in a neat little carry bag which took up hardly any room at all in my car!!!
I decided not to attempt putting up the tent before i went away as i normally do so i have some idea of how it goes together!! I decided it shouldn't be too difficult as it was only small....i was right, it was easy to put up and didn't take long at all. For a two mantent it has a good sized storage area or porch at the front. The ground sheet in the porch is also sewn in which saves extra faffing once the tent is up.
I could easily lie down in the tent and another person would easily have fitted in there with me too...

Advantages: Easy up and down, light weight, OUTER UP FIRST! Disadvantages: Rather expensive, suffers from condensation if zips fully closed
...I purchased a VauDe MkII lite over 1 year ago and have never looked back!
I put the tent up in the back garden as per the instructions that were easy to follow. When you first get the tent the inner is not attatched so you lay the outer on the floor and the elasticated frame is placed on top. The 4 corners of the outer are then inserted into the ends of the frame and the elastic of the outer easily clipped onto the frame.
The inner is then attatched and can stay this way for the life of the tent!
In use the tent is a roomy 2man with ample space for kit or tight fitting 3 man. This tent has a huge hydrostatic head, meaning that it is very water proof. This does however bring it's own problems. The tent is coated in silicone which, although water resistant is not breathable. As such, when camping in warmer climates...
