"ticks many of the boxes of the Durston at half the price. ... arguably the best 2 person lightweight tent on Earth for the money."
"it's a lot lighter and less bulk for less dough. On a solo bike trip or hiking with my dog that would be super tough to beat for the money."
"Lanshan 2 is similar to X-mid 2 weight at half the price. ... Can use the saved cash on other gear?"

"held until the storm passed, something like 4 hours. ... My splitwing leaked (so much for not needing to seam seal it!), the Lanshan2 didn't."
"I’ve given mine lots of abuse over hundreds of miles and countless Wild camps and it’s never let me down."
"I used it on the AT and it’s still in great shape."

"So with the carbon fiber poles I bought for it, it weighs in at around 2.5 lbs."

"Lanshan 2 Pro gives a few more inches of space being single wall on the roof. ... I’m 6’2” and it perfect. ... Leaves enough room at my foot and head for a bit of gear."
"I’m 6’1”/185cm and can sit in Lanshan 2 Pro with no problem"
"The space inside is amazing you won't be disappointed."

"From experience I can say for sure that the Lanshan 2 and Lanshan 2 Pro (they use slightly different materials) are totally waterproof in rain and strong winds."

"I had a lanshan pro 2 and it was way too small, both hair and toes got soaked from condensation."
"Lanshan 2 pro isnt really a 2P tent. Ita definitely more like 1.5P. ... It would feel like a sardine can getting two grown adults in that tent, and gear would have to go outside."
"I'm a bit taller and if the ground is sloped (so im sliding down the floor) and rain has caused the fabric to sag, then the my footbox or head could touch the fabric."

"I had to seam seal the Lanshan, twice, and spray the fly with silicon to stop misting."
"Just make sure to reseal the seems on the tarp (the anchor for the rope on the sides) as they tend to not be sealed properly."
"you will need to seam seal."

"Knowing me, it would keep me awake in windy nights"
"my tent flaps like crazy in the wind even when I get a great pitch. ... it is a noisy tent."
"my Lanshan 2 has the outer wall collapsing inside, therefore making a perfect arrangement for eh water to get through."

"The Lanshan design really doesn't allow for airflow. ... Leaving the door flaps open at night and camping far away from water was the only time I didn't have tons of condensation on the walls. ... After three years of sleeping with a towel near my head, I ditched the Lanshan."
"I had a lanshan pro 2 and it was way too small, both hair and toes got soaked from condensation."
"I like the double wall design way better ... the inner tent gives you a little extra protection from condensation which is nice when you are stuck in a downpour"
Check out the Lanshan 2. The are 2.3 pounds in the double wall version. The single wall (Lanshan 2 pro) is 2.0 pounds. [https://3fulgear.com/product/ultralight-tent/lanshan2-classic/](https://3fulgear.com/product/ultralight-tent/lanshan2-classic/) I know you don't use trekking poles, but you can get the carbon fiber poles from Zpacks and other places that are ridiculously light and fold down pretty small. You would use them in place of the trekking poles for pitching the Lanshan. [https://zpacks.com/products/48-carbon-fiber-tent-pole](https://zpacks.com/products/48-carbon-fiber-tent-pole) (get 2 of them). My son and myself (and my Vizsla) before I gave the Lanshan to my son have a combined 10-15 trips on one and it has been great. It has more floor space than my Zpacks Duplex. More than enough room for me (6'1" tall), dog and a bunch of gear.

r/CampingandHiking • Tent recommendations for 1 person + dog ->I would recommend a 3F UL Gear Lanshan 2. I used one for two years then gave it to my son. The pro version is single wall and a little lighter. But I opted for the regular double wall version and have both the three and four season inners for it. So we can also use it for both 3 season and winter camping. It is as bullet proof as any silnylon tent is going to be.
r/lightweight • Good durable beginner 2 person tent under 4 pounds ->I would go with a BRS 3000T stove which is less than 1/3rd the weight and really all you need. I have 3 of them. One for my Jeep, one for my son and one for backpacking. Plus its tiny and will nest inside a Toaks 750ML pot. If you use trekking poles. Consider the Lanshan 2 Pro tent (2.21 lbs). Or the Lanshan 2 regular double-wall (2.5 lbs). And similar price range. Bullet proof. Personally I still carry a Frogg Toggs UL rain jacket. I've tried many others and sold/returned them all. I also have a 3F UL Gear silnylon rain skirt/kilt for a little more coverage. If you are doing shoulder season trips, get some extra mid-layer insulation like an alpha hoodie or some kind of light fleece. That 32 degree down puffy probably won't cut it alone when sitting around camp at night and temps drop down to the 20s or lower.

r/backpacking • Just getting started, rate my gear ->It is the Lanshan, thats why. Made in the same factory, but comes seam sealed. Lots of videos on youtube. I have the 2 man and it's great, piece of piss to set up and pack away.
r/wildcampingintheuk • Night Cat ultralight 2 tent ->I have the 3FUL Gear LanShan 2. If you already use hiking poles. I like it,
r/CampingandHiking • Tent recommendations for 1 person + dog ->Lanshan 2, seriously. Me and my partner did the West Highland Way, TEAR, Offa's Dyke, various Lake District trips, etc with one and it was completely fine
r/Ultralight • Beginner budget friendly 2 person tent ->For less than two hundred quid, I'd get the 2026 version of the 3F UL Lanshan 2
r/wildcampingintheuk • Tent upgrade - Naturehike Cloud Peak 2 vs Star River 2 ->Durston X Mid 2 Solid would be my first choice at that budget. Plenty spacious inside for two, loads of head height, two large vestibules, lightweight and a doddle to pitch. Another option is the Lanshan 2 which ticks many of the boxes of the Durston at half the price. It has to obviously compromise to achieve this but it's arguably the best 2 person lightweight tent on Earth for the money. Full disclosure, I am biased as hell, I have a Lanshan 2 and absolutely adore it. That being said if I had £300 to spend on a tent it would be the Durston.
r/wildcampingintheuk • 2 person tent recommendations for Irish and uk weather. ->I seriously considered getting one of these last year when I was looking for a general use hiking and wild camping tent. Actually I considered getting the version with the one person inner as that two person inner is utterly useless if you need to cook in bad weather. I loved the pyramid shape, the enormous vestibule (with the one person inner) and the carry weight. In the end I got a Lanshan 2 as I wanted the benefits of large vestibule space and a larger inner tent.
r/wildcampingintheuk • Alpkit tarpstar 2 review ->1.8kg for a tent you can't even sit up in? I'm not into these canvas coffins at all. You could get a Lanshan 2 for less money than that (currently as low as £93.95). Giving you masses more space, two decent sized vestibules and it weighs half as much.
r/wildcampingintheuk • Any experience with olpro single man tents? ->The manufacturer's specs say 5000mm for the Lanshan 2. > Tent body is silicone treated nylon ripstop with 5000mm waterproof PU coating. All seams taped with waterproof, solvent-free polyurethane tape. https://3fulgear.com/product/ultralight-tent/lanshan2-classic/
r/wildcampingintheuk • Any experience with olpro single man tents? ->Lanshan 2. Weighs nothing, well within budget, big enough to sleep two and has two large vestibules.
r/wildcampingintheuk • Two person tent recommendations for long distance walk/ backpacking? ->Naturehike, 3F UL Gear. High quality, aluminum poles. Just don't buy them from AliExpress or Temu or else you will get hit with massive Trump tarrifs. Avoid importing anything anymore since De Minimus is being eliminated. Buy from Amazon for these brands. Personally I would stay away from any tent with fiberglass poles (Coleman, Ozark Trail, Core etc)
r/CampingGear • Cheap car-camping tent recommendations? Maybe a good Labor Day sale item? ->Fiberglass poles snap and break easily. They do not hold up to stronger guests of wind and bad weather. The biggest issue with fiberglass poles is they have tendency to split near the pole piece ends. Naturehike and 3F UL Gear tents cost in the same range as Coleman and Core tents but have better construction materials, aluminum poles and more mesh for better breathability in the summer time. They have full coverage rain flies so they also protect you better from rain and snow vs partial flies in cheaper tents.
r/CampingGear • Cheap car-camping tent recommendations? Maybe a good Labor Day sale item? ->Decathalon forclas is a great starting pack, it is adjustable via cords for toso length adjustment on the fly, a good starting tent is the landshan 2 if you want a trekking pole tent and the nature hike cloud up 2 if you want a freestanding tent, best starter sleeping bag is any 20 degree down bag you can afford (20 degree = 30 degree in real world use usually ,Fahrenheit not Celsius).
r/WildernessBackpacking • Best starter pack,tent, sleeping bag? ->Are you carrying that bad boy alone? Far? 7lbs for a solo backpacking tent isn’t messing around if you’re going more than a few miles. I’m not knocking the tent & that’s a great deal! I still use a 7lbs 10 year old 3p mountain hardware tent when I can split the weight or for super short hike ins. For solo backpacking, I landed on a lanshan 2 (weighs 2lb 11oz) a few years ago it works perfect w/ the $30 carbon fiber hiking poles from Costco. Have fun!
r/CampingGear • Best backpacking tent under $150/200? ->Dane here. 'Inner first' doesnt do it for me. Theres always some kind of rain, when you need to pitch your tent here in Denmark. Do you have trekking poles? If so, look at the 3FUL Lanshan 2 (not the Pro version). Fits two people, two doors, two vestibules and weighs roughly 900 grams. Amazing tent for about 120-130 euro if I remember correctly. Check out LongSufferingHiker if you would like to see how it handles a sunny day, rain, heavy winds and even blizzards + how you can mod it to get even better than it is from the factory. I have just bought the 3FUL Taihang 2 (tunnel tent) which is just about 1,9 kg including tent, poles, pegs and groundsheet. Bought it from Camperlists for 147 euro. Took 7 days to arrive - sent from 3FUL in China (its amazing btw! Unbelievable what you get for your money from 3FUL!). Novice Wild Camper has some great videos with it. One in some pretty heavy winds (30+ mph). Also. Look perhaps at these, but are on the heavier side: OEX Phoxx 2 / Vango Banshee 200 are pretty much the same tent (havent tested them) but I believe the Banshee can be pitched in one go. Phoxx need to have the inner erected first
r/wildcampingintheuk • Tambu Kutir 2.0 tent - is it any good? Suspiciously cheap? ->Yea I have the Lanshan 1 and love it but the 2 may be better for more room and if you are wanting to open it up. Make sure you get the standard not the pro.
r/camping • Best tent with full mesh? ->Lanshan 1 or 2, you can thank me later
r/backpacking • Best Tent on a budget? ->Best? Not sure. My favorite, Lanshan 1 or 2.
r/backpacking • Best Ultralight 1P Tent? ->Get a Lanshan 1 or 2, you can thank me later
r/camping • Following up on a YouTube recommendation for beginner backpacking. Ampex 2 person tent. Any good? ->They are trekking pole tents which I was skeptical of but I like it better. They are much easier to set up, lighter, and pack down smaller. The only downside is you can’t pick it up and move it once it’s set up if you want to like the one you have posted but that’s no biggie for me. Also, get the regular version, not the Pro. I had a pro and swapped it for the regular and love it.
