User Review: Big Agnes Seedhouse SL2

Excellent tent.

Very light, easy to set up and spacious inside for something weighing c1.5kg.

Set up is a piece of cake; I did one dry run in my lounge and then was able to set it up easily, at midnight, in the dark, in the pouring rain on arriving in The Lakes (UK).

Everything about the tent is logical; no zany systems or fasteners to get your head round. It does what it says on the tin.

Very stable and watertight, withstood a lively storm in Ennerdale, with no visible leaks. Vestibule area provided sufficient cover to cook if need be, and also a good space to store rucksack and other gear.

Plenty of room for one, cosy for two, with decent head room too if you need to change gear or pack inside.

Compact size carries easily, and it looks good too when set up. Big Agnes seem to be onto a winner here.
