EndlessMike78Great company. I've had a 4 season tent by them for almost a decade now. That thing is indestructible and has handled crazy amounts of snow and storms.
WoodchuckWTFI like the Alps tents. Wife and I moto camp off our KTM’s and the two person has aluminum poles (fiberglass poles break) and two vestibule for our Mosko luggage and riding gear. It keeps it all dry but out of the tent. I use a stuff sack to pack it small.
TheJewBakkaI've had an ALPS Mountaineering 2 person for years. Its been a great tent for me. Less than $140 at the time.
markbronccoI picked up one of their two-person tents a couple years ago for almost the same reasons, couldn’t find anything in my price range that balanced weight and quality as well. I’ve taken it out in some nasty rain and it held up super well, no leaks or issues. Plus, setup is straightforward even after a long day on the trail.
blank_user_name_hereAnything by Alps mountaineering. Really good warrantee, great quality, good pricing.
Blue05DLook into Coleman for decent and affordable. I've been happy with Alps Mountaineering on Amazon. Best suggestions I can offer.
camping_scientistAll the tents from Alps mountaineering have treated me very well in wind and rain. Colemans not so much.
crunch816I've spent a lot of time in my Alps Mountaineering tent. It's not the best quality, or lightest, or cheapest, but it's the best of all 3. Great quality, not too bad on the price, and very easy to set up.
