Trying to find a great value in a strong, comfortable backpacking tent that's quick to set up and yet strong and resilient? The Big Agnes Seedhouse 1 just could be the tent for you.
The Seedhouse 1 can be a roomy tent, even for my 6'2" and 235 pound body. It has an excellent weight-to-price ratio and is easy to set up, yet includes 11 stake-down points for rough weather.
Though a little heaver than it's super-light cousin the SL1, this tent is much more durable and to me is worth the extra weight. Of course, if you are willing to invest a small a lot more and want a super-light model, the SL1 could be your selection.
Features for both tents include:
-
Super lightweight hub/pole system with plastic clips that quickly and easily attach to the tent body
-
Durable waterproof-coated polyester rip stop fly ensures minimal stretch and long-life UV protection
-
Woven nylon mesh walls that provide 360-degree views and excellent ventilation
-
Includes a clear plastic window in the vestibule door and handy mesh floor pockets for keeping up with the small stuff
-
Comes complete with tent body, poles, fly, stakes and stuff sacks
This is really a wonderful tent - roomy sufficient even for Massive Agnes. I adore that I can turn over and even turn around and not have to slide in feet first. Also, since I often travel off the beaten path and set up on uneven terrain, a massive feature for me is the ability to conform the tent to odd shaped footprints. The T-shaped pole set-up genuinely aids in both flexibility and comfort, along with the stakes are light and durable.
I'd just add one thing to this wonderful tent. Bring along a clip or some thing to tie back the net door - an attached
tie or holding pocket could be an excellent addition. Would you mention that to Agnes next time you run into her on the trail?
With that little one-ounce addition, I've found this tent to be just the ticket for my solo forays into the deep woods.
