"70cm is very wide, are you sure you need mats that wide? 2 of them wouldn't even fit in a Hilleberg Nammatj 2, and that's a very spacious 2 person tent."

70cm is very wide, are you sure you need mats that wide? 2 of them wouldn't even fit in a Hilleberg Nammatj 2, and that's a very spacious 2 person tent. I would say get less wide mats, or failing that, you'll need a 3 person tent. Tunnel tents generally offer the most spacious interior. The Robens Sprinter (2 or 3) is a fantastic tent for the money. You could use a footprint to cover the vestibule area, but I wouldn't worry about things getting wet, let them get wet, presumably you're in the UK, in which case, at some point things are going to get wet.

It’s a bit small for sitting up in but the Hilleberg Nammatj2 is a fantastic winter tent. It feels bombproof, holds up amazingly in the wind, and is (just) light enough to backpack with

I've had a Hilleberg Nammatj 2 for 12 years now and taken it all over the world. I take care of it but it still looks like new today. Came with two liners, one like this and a mesh liner for warmer weather, is that included here? If you are set on a Hilleberg and want to do warm weather camping I think the Nammatj would be better, having vents on both sides of the tent really helps with airflow. Also the mesh liner. I also agree that price is steep for a 10 yo tent, you can buy new for 870.

I’ve owned a Hilleberg Nammatj 2 for nearly 10 years. It’s by far the best tent I’ve used. They pitch in 5 minutes once mastered, they’re extremely roomy, big vestibule, warm and cosy inside, loads of headroom and good ventilation (but still prone to condensation). They pack away small too which is a bonus, mine fits into my bags sleeping bag compartment. The build quality is very high and I’ve had mine out in all weathers, all on Dartmoor. It’s taken 50-60mph gusts on front, rear and side with no issues. They’re pretty expensive now (I paid £675 for mine new in 2016) but if you look after it, it’ll probably be the last tent you have to buy. 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. Hope this helps. If I’ve missed anything just ask 👍

It'll probably hold up just fine in typical 3 season weather. But looking at the fading dye, it's seen a lot of use. Even with good care, it's a sign that the nylon may not be as strong as it once was, so I personally wouldn't trust it in harder winds. Especially when weather can be variable in the wild. Personally, if I was looking to get a nammatj, it's for its 4 season capacity, and knowing that i can trust it to stand up to unexpected changes in weather. Indeed, that's exactly what happened a few weeks ago. Set up with expected mild weather, ended up with 50mph gusts all night. Noisy, but felt safe throughout. This is especially in light of reasonably capable tents within that 600euro price range.

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.

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.

I swear by my Hilleberg, but that's a terrible deal, even on a great tent.

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.
