Looking for a reccomendation...kuiu mountain star 2p

[thp277]

So im having a tough time not picking up the mountain star 2p while its still on sale.
I currently use a six moon designs lunar solo. Its been out west twice and i used it in march on the AT. It rained to beat hell and the condensation just splattered on my face all night.

I also use the six moon lunar duo if one of my kids come along.

Is it much of an upgrade to grab the kuiu or should be happy with what I got??

Weight isnt an issue with either of these tents.
Thanks for any help or advice

I have zero complaints about my Mountain Star, it's my most used tent out of a pretty large collection. Good at everything, especially ventilation

I reviewed the old version a couple of years back. I have since upgraded to the current model and still really like it.

I bought one right before it went on sale (seems to happen every time I get something from KUIU). But I am happy with the overall quality. It is a little tight for 2 people but it is certainly manageable. I spent 4 nights out in it, it stormed 3 of those and I had zero issues. Packed up easily as well. The sale might be over I’m not sure, but if you decided to get one later I think you will be happy with it.

Good deal! Thanks for the input. Figured it would be tight with 2 , but hey, its just one of my kids. They can sleep by themselves if they choose but i doubt they will in bear country! Lol

I think the sale ends today or this weekend. Definitely gonna grab one.

If you’re interested I just listed a new mountain star set for $405

Does the mountain star seem short when you are sitting up on your pad in it? It’s listed height is quite a big less than like a slingfin portal or other similar tents. Just curious on real experience with it

It doesn’t seem short at all once you’re there. It is a pretty roomy tent and the double vestibules hold way more gear than you can carry. I’m 6’2 and sitting up was not an issue
