"I even washed them accidentally and still worked perfectly fine afterwards."
"Been using them for about four years working out in my gym, and cycling daily (45+ minutes on a bicycle outdoors)."
"They last absolutely forever (I know 1980s models still in daily use)"

"I have and it managed pouring rain and high winds without issue."
"it is amazing on rain and wind."
"I've used the Fly Creek in very harsh weather and have never had a drop of water get inside, nor a stake pull loose, nor a rip, or broken pole."

"This is a huge tent for its weight (1.5kg) it will work for your height, you will be able to sit up in it too. It’ll be spatius for just you, cosy for 2."
"It's very roomy inside"
"I have a 2P Nemo ultralight tent which is perfect for me alone"

"I was hesitant about the instant part of it having not used one before, but I love it. I can put it up/take it down by myself"
"Coleman is stupid easy to set up ... this is so easy and takes a lot of stress away ... It’s easy ... You don’t have to think about it."

"they're pretty lightweight for what they are! ... I'm not sure it's possible for it to be any lighter than it already is whilst maintaining that level of robustness. ... Most other tents that are as strong as a Soulo weigh more than a Soulo"
"Both tents achieve their relatively low weights due to excellent design and wise material choice."

"Enan is going to be cramped. ... I am almost 20cm shorter than OP and cannot sit straight in Enan. ... Enan is not a very livable tent for other than sleeping or otherwise lying down."
"not much for headroom though"
"I'm a little tall for it at 6'4.5" ... it's OK if I lay on an angle"

"with a significant weight penalty."
"My only gripe is the weight. ... It’s 2.7kg pack weight and I sometimes double pole and I have a footprint so that adds up."
"lower your standards of UL and get a Yellow Label Hilleberg!"

"Hilleberg is a winter tent; if you rely on this list and buy it for a summer holiday you will die."
"Kelty, is it half covered in mesh, it is horrible in summer and it cannot stand winter."
"It is covered with fabric again, so not so good for summer, would be good for mountain weather in the summer though."

Hilleberg is solid but damn those prices hurt. If you're not doing serious mountaineering the MSR Hubba series is way more reasonable and still built like a tank
r/BuyItForLife • Looking for an all season camping tent. Any suggestions? ->People shit on hilleberg prices till they use a hilleberg in less than ideal weather. I’ll tolerate the price for the long life and ability to handle some nasty weather. Most places in the states below tree line don’t need one though.
r/CampingGear • Gearlabs top 19 tents are all 200$+. One is even over a thousand. Are those of ua getting the 70$ amazon special really buying junk?! ->Enan is going to be cramped. I am almost 20cm shorter than OP and cannot sit straight in Enan. Lengthwise it's not a problem but Enan is not a very livable tent for other than sleeping or otherwise lying down.
r/Ultralight • Light alternative to the Soulo/Akto tents? ->At 900g with poles, the xmid is somehow only 100g lighter than a Hilleberg Enan. Considering the relative performance, this puts the xmid in the extreme heavyweight category of tents.
r/Ultralight • Looking for 3 season tent! What does everyone use in UK/Europe? ->Hilleberg, TarpTent, SlingFin, Samaya. Real expeditions are more likely to choose Hilleberg. Their strongest tents are not super light, but they are made to withstand serious weather.
r/Ultralight • What ultralight tent do you recomend for severe cold weather? ->if money isnt a thing then hilleberg, black label series, a staika model kept me and my guide protected and safe when it snowed 14 inches on a high country elk hunt, they are awesome, im from Tennessee we dont need best quality expedition tents generally even in the eastern mountains. but having used that one for a week i can say that one was great.
r/CampingGear • Which would you buy? ->I swear by my Hilleberg, but that's a terrible deal, even on a great tent.
r/camping • Worth buying old tent? ->Get a Hilleberg! 😂buy once cry once.
r/overlanding • Tent Recommendations ->Hilleberg is the tent for severe weather. They have different lines depending on how you want to trade weight versus sturdiness. None are "ultralight", but that is not what you are looking for in extreme cold/winds/snow.
r/Ultralight • What ultralight tent do you recomend for severe cold weather? ->I hunt in Alaska we always use a Hilleberg
r/Ultralight • What ultralight tent do you recomend for severe cold weather? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
