Wild CountryUnisex's Zephyros Compact 1 Tent, Cactus Green, One Size

Wild Country are great. A solid tent which withstood 60mph+ winds in Snowdonia. I had a faulty zip, and it was replaced/repaired by WC quickly and free of charge, good customer service. No leaks or bent poles against extreme weather, considering it is only a 3 season as well.

Pros:Lightweight and compact as advertisedEasy to pitch and to adjust tension, good pecks, good matching footprintReasonable priceCons:No bathtub groundsheet (though if you have footprint I feel not necessary)Zipper not holding after 3 nights use, even when the fabrics are not under tension, requires fidgetingFlappy door holding mechanism

Read good reviews about tent and was pleased with using it for the first time. However the zip completely failed on the second pitch and left me somewhat stranded for the night. Don’t know if I can return it at this point. Bit dissatisfied and wouldn’t recommend tent to anyone else as I can’t see a replacement being any different or more reliable in bad weather to the one I had.

Great value and easy to put up, used it at Culra and Fisherfield and felt confident in its ability. No condensation in Summer and well ventilated, coped easily with medium winds and rain showers. Just need to be mindful it is like a coffin so best suited to essential wild camping needs and leave the dog or wife outside unless you really love them.

The ground sheet is very thin so I have an extra groundsheet which admittedly means I now own a tarp which I wanted for a quick shelter or sitting outside if needed. Pitching it is like trying to mimic a flying fox but the whole tent is very light and there’s really quite a lot of room and the entrance is decent and ok to cook in if needed. Brilliant tent pegs. They allow the tent to get right into the ground shielding the inner from cold wind.

I have used this 3 times now. Twice in very cold weather and once in heavy rain. On each occasion the tent operated to a high standard. It kept me dry and warm.Pitch time was a few mins (6) and take down was even quicker. Great tent for one person.Really pleased I bought this and would recommend 👍

High quality

Admittedly i tugged a bit hard on the strap but didnt expect it to tear so quickly. Damage isnt covered by the warranty either.
