The vestibule zips up close to the top of the inner door and there is very little overhang, which means in inclement weather if you unzip the outer door you risk getting water inside. The weight and packed size are very appealing; the build quality looks good and its great value too.

The bathtub floor only goes up about 2 inches, so don’t put this tent anywhere you think it might flood! As mentioned above, the tent is asymmetric in form, but there’s no coding that we could see to help correctly orient the frame over the body or the fly over the top. The materials used to make the FlyCreek tent are definitely of a better quality than those of the CloudUp 2. Hang it outside or pile it loosely in your house for a few days, turning it inside and out to assure it has dried everywhere. Comfortable and breathable: updated with a door and a side ventilation window, you will never feel dizzy and uncomfortable.They might want to look at two-door two-vestibule options, Naturehike have a range such as Cloud-Peak 2, Star-River 2, and Mongar; and 3F UL with their Lanshan 2, Tipi, etc. However, other people (like in this forum) have tried out both of these tents and say that they are comparable in terms of quality and construction. Whatever weather conditions you’re camping in, the Cloud Up 2 can be pitched in under 5 minutes by a single camper. On the surface of it, the Naturehike Cloud UP present some very impressive specifications in terms of weight, packed size, material used and above all else cost. Instead of stuffing my bulky old hand-me-down four-man Wal-Mart tent onto the bike, I decided I’d try something newer and smaller.

I found the included footprint a bit bulky so bought a lighter-weight one, Tyvek would be ideal too. The stand-out feature of the 20D nylon fly is the PU 4000 coating that provides adequate protection from rain, snow, and other moisture. I decided that I wanted a 2-person tent, as I’m quite tall and I want a little bit of space to spread my stuff out. The one time I had to set up my tent in the rain, it was possible to set up the tent fly first and then set up the tent underneath it, to avoid the tent getting too wet, although this was difficult. These choices all likely help the Cloud UP achieve its low claimed weight, but they also introduce compromise into the design.Definitely not perfect but those expensive tents aren’t without flaws either 😀 Hope you enjoy the tent. Storing a wet tent for as little as 24 hours in warm weather is likely to start the process of mildew formation. For a NATUREHIKE tent, waterproof means that all external fabric has been coated with our exceptional polyurethane coatings and the seams are watertight out of the bag. There is more to life than saving short-term bucks; we want to support companies that innovate and improve their products and stand behind them. Construction - The construction could be better with a cross bar to strengthen its structure, but the lack of it only makes the living space too small.
