"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."

"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’m 6’1”/185cm and can sit in Lanshan 2 Pro with no problem"
"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."
"The space inside is amazing you won't be disappointed."

"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"

"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."

"my Lanshan 2 has the outer wall collapsing inside, therefore making a perfect arrangement for eh water to get through."
"the SylPoly holds less water and pitches taughter than the SylNylon."
"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 believe the Lanshan is silnylon, so based on your climate I would go with an xmid. It won't sag in heavy rain and won't absorb water if you have to pack it up slightly wet."

"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 quite enjoy my 3F UL Gear Lanshan 2 Pro. Under $300. It's impregnated silnylon and is about 2 lbs. It does need seam sealing at factory ( extra cost) or you can do yourself. You also need trekking poles to pitch.
r/CampingandHiking • Sub-USD$400 Backpacking Tent ->Save weight and go for a hiking pole tent. Get a 2p tent. I got a Lanshan myself. Was looking at the 1p, but the little bit of extra weight was worth the extra space, so I got the 2p version.
r/Ultralight • Need help picking a budget ultralight tent ->Setup can be just as fast as a freestanding tent, but might take some getting used to. There are methods to set up when the ground isn't fit for pegs (like on rocks or even sand or snow). I like it because I'm hiking with trekking poles anyway, and my tent it super light. I am quite tall, so went for the 'pro' version, which is single wall and has a little bit more room inside than the non-pro version. Condensation can be a thing in certain areas or when there's not enough ventilation. Could be a reason to choose the non pro version with inner tent maybe. Good quality for its price imo!
r/Ultralight • Need help picking a budget ultralight tent ->If OP is thinking of trading the tent in for another one, I would opt for the only slightly heavier Lanshan 2 to be able to get your pack inside too. Dealing with condensation can be a bitch in single wall tents, especially when rain might be on the program. I kinda wish I got the non pro double wall version because of that.
r/CampingGear • trekking pole tent ->Of the two you've linked the Indie is the better tent - has more space and headroom. The Ranger is a coffin - might as well get a bivybag. Some other options: [Macpac Sololight](https://www.macpac.co.nz/macpac-sololight-1-person-tent-v3/121720.html?dwvar_121720_color=Citronelle%2FWoodbine&dwvar_121720_clearance=no) [Macpac Microlight](https://www.macpac.co.nz/macpac-microlight-1-person-tent/114084.html?dwvar_114084_color=Kiwi&dwvar_114084_clearance=no) [Macpac Duolight](https://www.macpac.co.nz/macpac-duolight-2-person-tent-v3/121721.html?dwvar_121721_color=Citronelle%2FWoodbine&dwvar_121721_clearance=no) On Aliexpress, search for 3F UL gear lanshan 1 pro or 2 pro [The Durston X-Mid 1 and 2 ](https://durstongear.com/pages/tents)are great tents but need trekking poles or sticks for for support. A 3mx3m square flat tarp is what I use when the sandflies/mosquitoes aren't bad.
r/newzealand • Good lightweight tents? ->TNF Stormbreak 2P is a good tent. It's heavy at 5.5lbs /2.6kilos range. It's quick to set up. Utilizes clips instead of sleeves. Water-resistant bathtub floor with taped seams. It's a decent mesh-to-solid ratio, though I'm not sure why the top of the dome is solid. It's not the best design for stargazing / big open sky. You may want to expand your search and look into trekking pole tents. Trekking pole tents will offer you the most weight savings. There's a bit of a learning curve to trekking pole tents, so you will need to do practice pitches. The Lanshan Pro 2 (3 season) is affordable. You'll have to seam-seal-it yourself, but that's cheap and easy to do. Durston X-mid is a lot nicer than the Lanshan. But it's also more expensive. Alternatively, you could go straight up bushcraft with a tarp and bug net combo. Mountain Laurel Designs' Cricket Pyramid tarp is pretty neat. Though you'll definitely get rained out without a bathtub.
r/CampingGear • is the Robens Aster 2 pro a good camping tent? ->This is the truth. It's nearly impossible to beat it for quality vs price.
r/CampingandHiking • What’s the best budget tent? ->The lanshan pro is cheap and works well.
r/hikinggear • Is an ultralight tent worth it? ->I've heard good things about that cloud tent, I've never seen it in person. I believe it's a three season tent, you wouldn't want to use it when it's too cold out. The 3FUL Lanshan Pro is a great ultralight budget tent which I have. It does require trekking poles to stand. That Nemo sleep mat is good as long as you are not a side sleeper. A 65L bag is big.
r/CampingandHiking • Need advice on camping gear ->I was exactly the same. Actually got as far as ordering (and then cancelling) a Tarpstar as I decided to opt for a Lanshan instead (I now have a 1 and a 2). The ability to completely open up the side of the Lanshan made the difference for me, and I've certainly enjoyed using it.
r/wildcampingintheuk • Alpkit tarpstar 2 review ->You'll find the Lanshan pro 2 very spacious coming from the 1! The two pole setup provides shoulder room for sitting up in a way that pyramid tents never do. It should solve your issues.
r/Ultralight • Upgrading to more spacious tent: X mid 1/2 or Lanshan 2? ->If you use trekking poles, just get a lanshan 2, they are super light and pretty roomy
