Description

The Nallo 2 is a four-season tent made by Hilleberg. It has an average rating of 5 stars (out of 5), based on 8 user reviews.

Manufacturer's Description:
The Nallo and Nallo GT are the ideal all-around, all-season, ultra light tents. In essence, the Nallo and its extended vestibule version, the Nallo GT, are the ultralight versions of the Nammatj and Nammatj GT. They excel in any situation where the lightest possible tent is needed, but where true all season strength and reliability might be required.

Both tents’ Tunnel Tent design and ultra light weight make them ideal for mobile adventures, where you pitch and strike your tent every day, and because of their exceptional weight to space ratio, they are perfect for long distance endeavors where light weight is a greater priority than absolute strength.

Certainly, they are suitable for above- and below-treeline use in all seasons, but because they are built using our ultralight Kerlon 1200 and 9 mm poles, they do not have the same strength as their Nammatj cousins. That said, Kerlon 1200, with its 12 kilo tear strength, is an order of magnitude stronger even than most so-called “expedition grade” fabrics, and so is easily robust enough to handle adverse situations well.

Minimum weight: 4 lbs 3 oz

"Wow...what an experience. What a great little number. Brill. Used it in the UK. Great vestibule (with enough space to avoid the vomit from the previous night) and even enough to take a piss in the middle of the night.

Great for serious enthusiasts. I love it."

"Four season only if you pitch it carefully.

We have the earlier equal hoop design.

This tent is very versatile: the outer goes up first and last which is great for rain; the floor pulls back so you can move about inside doing stuff away from the inner; the front porch ties back in a variety of configurations; inner can remain with outer for quick pitching of both."

"I've tried a fair few tents now, 3 of my favourites are all from Hilleberg. I guess it's because I trust the build quality and the set up.

I recently brought a Soulo, mainly because I just couldn't resist, and while the Soulo is an amazing tent, imo the strongest one man tent in the known universe I have gone back to the Nallo 2."

"Several of us used the Nallo2 in the Snowy Mountains this winter. They stood up to winds of approx 80mph (130kph) withut rocks or tree cover to lesson the force. One was pitched side ways and the other tail on. We only used the poles supplied, but added extra guylines to the vestibule and poles."

"Does the world need yet another raving Nallo 2 review?

Of course! It's the best outdoor-money I've ever spent.

Totally waterproof and amazingly sturdy in bad weather.

Ease of set-up is good, if you let the wind work to your advantage. I use it as a one-person tent and as such, it's very comfortable."

"This is definitly the best tent I ever had. Though the Nallo is designed to fit two persons, it is a great tent for solo-tours. It is very light-weight and offers a lot of space inside. Since I often travel alone over an extended period of time, I really like to have such a great 'mobile home' that withstands any kind of weather."

"Where do you want to be if you're exposed in nasty weather? Try a Nallo 2.

After using this tent in varied conditions for about half a year, I'm ready to offer another glowing report on Hilleberg tents, following my experience with the one-person Akto."

The Nallo is my preferred tent for any winter trip: extremely lightweight (even with the thicker 12mm Easton Alloy poles), easy to set-up and take down even in very strong winds and thick mittens. The material is superb, the stitching immaculate (if one had to, one could complain to the individual who made the tent - name tags are sewn into the inner tent), the functionaly unsurpassed by any other tent I have ever used.
