Amazon tipi tents

[DonV]

I have heard some good things about the Amazon tipi tents. I am looking for something for backpacking with a stove hole. Anyone have experiance with these tents? I am really curious about how good they are - and how tough. I KNOW they are not like a Kifaru but they also cost 1/5 as much.

You're gonna have to be a bit more specific than 'Amazon tipi' dude.

They're are hundreds on there, from high end stuff to cheap ChiWan-ese nonsense.

I do not know which one but I have had a couple guys specifically mention they are a really good bang for your buck. Above is one I am looking at.

I bought that tent in October for a November deer hunt here in Idaho. It worked very well, but does weigh more than the premium brands. Having a wood stove was awesome. My hunting buddy and me both tagged out and the tent did play a good part of being able to stay out longer and hunt harder.

my buddy bought one and we used it as a base camp hang out for truck camping recently. Not sure his model was light enough to backpack with. I can tell you we got the tent up to 80 degrees with the stove burning. plenty of space for 3 guys to sit around in with some gear. For sleeping I'd only fit 2 guys and the stove. I believe his was a 6 or 8 man. Again not to sure on specifics but seemed worth a trial.

Thanks, I did not pull the trigger. After careful thought I want this solely for tough hunts in cold, not the time to trust something cheap. Lot's of reviews mentioned holes from stove embers. That said I definitely think they are good deal for the price.
