"ticks many of the boxes of the Durston at half the price. ... arguably the best 2 person lightweight tent on Earth for the money."
"The 3FUL Lanshan Pro is a great ultralight budget tent which I have."
"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."

"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."

"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."

"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."
"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."

adie_mitchell 1.0You'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.
Ancient-Thought-9511 1.0Lanshan 2 pro is king for me!
Better_Carpet_7271 1.0Good afternoon campers, Lanshans are not that great. Ok for light use but the inners are not too robust also although the outer is the zips have had a tendency to break open. Fixable but annoying. A good option if you can pick one up cheap or in good second hand condition but check the points I've mentioned before parting with any cash. Plus point is they are surprisingly warm for at best a two season mesh inner. Three months solid experience of living in one and I've done the last month of cold weather in the UK in one. If you just want an occasional use tent and don't mind a bit of extra weight save yourself over a hundred quid and just get one from the OEX range but change the guy rope tensioners to the cheap plastic ones as the metal rings wear out rapidly. I camped through storm Babbette in one of these a couple of years back and it was solid until the tensioners gave out. It all depends on where you're going and what weather is expected. Hope this helps.
2 pro as far as I know.
cosmokenney 1.0I 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.
CowtownCyc 1.0Joining the chorus here, I have both a Lanshan 2 Pro and Durston Xmid 2. I like them both but generally I would recommend spending the extra money and getting the Durston. The polyester fly doesn't sag half as much as the SilNylon on the Lanshan. It's got more usable space to.
I've got a lanshan 2 Pro and an Xmid 2. I've had them both out in heavy weather and they both work fine but the Xmid is definitely a better tent. The lanshan sylnylon sags a lot and condensation is a big problem, but if you seal the seams properly it will keep you dry in high wind and heavy rain. The Xmid is way more flexible, you can set it up without the inner to get out of the weather in a hurry and the sylpoly doesn't sag as much. Also a much more solid pitch and way less flappy in the wind.
DiscountJunior6884 1.0I 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.
DreadPirate777 1.0I have a lanshan 2pro. I’m 5’11’ and I have to be careful if I don’t want my feet to touch the wall. Condensation isn’t too bad. It does happen but after two days of solid rain in the Wyoming and being in a cloud for a third my bag was ok. I would put a shirt over my foot box and it would keep my sleeping bag dry enough. Now I have some box wax waterproofing on the foot box and it keeps it dry. I added my own seam sealing to keep it waterproof. If it’s really windy I find something like a bush or a rocks to break the wind. I wouldn’t use it as a mountaineering tent but it does well I rough winds if you stake it low to the ground and have good stake placement.
FewEnthusiasm2487 1.0I took the lanshan 2 pro on the JMT last year and it worked out great. I like the 2 for the extra space.
Foreign-Recording276 1.0I love my lanshan 2 pro in silpoly
I have not had any issues with mine. I've extensively used the 1 pro in silnylon without complaints. My new pro 2 in silpoly seems very good too. They replaced the old plastic parts with metal, and the zipper is improved too. Remember that the xmid is twice the cost in Europe
furyg3 1.0My Lanshan 2 Pro has a lot of headroom (while sitting).
