So, this tent is actually best for two smaller campers or a single larger camper rather than two tall adults. When comparing the weights of these two tents, you’ve got to consider that the FlyCreek HV UL doesn’t come with a ground sheet (which you will need to use because of the thin floor). Camping Lights & Lanterns Don’t let the light stop your adventure! We have a wide range of lighting equipment, from basic camping lanterns for cosy family campfires to focusable lights for cave or forest exploration. Read More Construction & Durability : 20D Sil-Nylon, a light material but has yet to fail. Poles are high-grade aluminium and still going strong. The stiching, zips and seam-sealing is excellent.

Camping Chairs and Tables Find the perfect furniture for your outdoor adventures with our selection of camping chairs and tables!

Read More The basic pitch is inner first: an aluminium pole structure (all-in-one, on a hub) overlaid on the inner, the inner clips to the poles, then a fly is put over. With a pitch or two of experience it is second nature. There is very little one can do wrong, no ambiguous poles for example, but one should remember to attach the bathtub sides to the rain fly.So long as you use your groundsheet, regularly respray with a waterproof coating, and take a little care when you set up the tent, it should last for many camping adventures. Hi folks. Today on the blog we’re taking a look at the Naturehike Cloud Up Tent. I decided to set this tent up on a sunny day and take a peek at what it can do. Note that I haven’t had the chance to actually go on an overnight trip with this tent yet, so I can’t comment on how it holds up in the elements! But stay tuned for a full review once I’ve had the chance to try it. Let’s dive in and take a look! Overview & Specifications Mesh design: B3 mesh design for perfect mosquitoe-free protection and better breathability of the tent.
Sadly, we were disappointed by the Naturehike Cloud UP in terms of ease of setup. To be clear, it uses a very similar structure to many of the other tents in this round up, and on a fundamental level, it’s no more difficult to setup than these, but none the less, we hit problems: the written instructions and diagrams provided with the tent were very scant and, in fact, we found the diagrams confused matters at points. 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. You’d surely get used to this if you used the tent regularly, but from the perspective of a user who is either new to camping or only camps occasionally, none of this is helpful and indeed it could cause some serious delays if you’re trying to setup the tent whilst tired or in poor weather. One thing we’d suggest any owner of the Cloud UP do is to add some colour coding to the poles and fasteners on the tent body and fly sheet to speed up the pitching process. For some perspective, on average, adult humans need around 20 to 25 square feet (1.9 to 2.3 sqm) of sleeping space to be comfortable at night. The now well-recognized providers of outdoor equipment had a humble beginning. Founded in 2010, the company has strived to provide its customers with the highest quality while maintaining the lightweight nature of its tents. Carrying Whether you are doing a short day walk or you are looking to do a longer expedition for a few days, the load carrying kit that you use to transport all your other gear can be the difference between making it to the end and cutting your trip short. Read More That said, 3000mm will be fine for most rainy days. Just make sure to respray your tent with a waterproof coating each time the rain batters it.We always advise a few test runs with pitching a new tent before heading out on the trail and we think that’s especially important with this tent. So long as you set out your guy lines and peg out the tent nice and taut, you shouldn’t have any problems in windy weather. Durability INSECT PROOF - with B3 breathable mesh, you can still ventilate your tent without 10 million mosquitoes inviting themselves in for the evening. Cloud Up 3p has a crossbar on top. This gives you a LOT more interior space because the walls don’t droop as much. You also get much more headroom.
The materials used to make the FlyCreek tent are definitely of a better quality than those of the CloudUp 2. However, according to what people are saying online, the difference is really negligible (again, I personally haven’t tried out the FlyCreek). Note: The Cloud Up 2 will not fit two adult winter sleeping bags! Take a look at the picture below. My winter bag is so poofy that it takes up almost the entire width of the tent. Stoves and Cookers Cooking is part and parcel of camping, so it’s essential to choose a good quality stove that will make the experience hassle-free. At Wood to Water, we have a range of portable camping stoves and cookers that are both easy to use, efficient and built to last. Read More >> It’s now been over 5 years since I bought the Naturehike Cloud Up 2. It’s been on a lot of adventures with me. 🙂 Even after all of this use (and some abuse!), the Cloud Up 2 is holding up well. The zippers haven’t broken, it isn’t leaking (and I haven’t resealed the seams) and the poles are fine.I saved a little weight by getting a Geertop 20D UL footprint. Were I to be buying one today I'd get a sheet of Tyvek.
As a general rule, 2-person tents are for 1 person. The Cloud Up 2 is no exception. It is going to be a tight fit for two adults. However, my tween daughter and I fit in the tent fine, even with gear. It’s also very roomy for two kids. Front vestibules: It makes the inner space larger, and personal hiking gear can also be placed in the front door area. Utility bags and pouches Get super organised on your outdoor adventures with our range of utility bags and pouches! Shop tactical and practical equipment in a range of sizes, styles and colours. Read MoreThe most important reason why we recommend this tent for any individual is its exceedingly low price. As a matter of fact, compared with other similarly designed tents, it is about one-third the price of its competitors. However, what’s more important is the value the Cloud Up 2 offers at an affordable price. You will want to set up the additional guylines (the extra rope is included with the tent) to stop the rainfly from flapping throughout the night.
