Tungsten UL 1P

The tungstens are awesome. A little heavy and bulky for backpacking but you can totally make it work too. I have a 1p and 3p and they are my go to for car camping. I used to use them for backpacking until I got lighter stuff.

It’s a good tent! As others said, it’s not designed to be a very lightweight backpacking tent, so if your main desire for upgrading is weight savings you might want to sniff around some more. But quality-wise it should be a solid, long-lasting tent if you go for it. There is a UL version of the Tungsten that is lighter (like 2.5 lbs vs nearly 4) but of course shaving those pounds and ounces costs more!

It’s a heavy tent, but well made. If you don’t care about the weight or size as much, it’ll last a long time as long as you take care of it

I had the 1 person Tungsten and it’s a really solid tent. Rode out heavy thunderstorms with hail dry as a bone. Only drawback is the weight. I’m old (49) and have dough so I upgraded to Nemo Dragonfly 1p and it’s like half the weight. Gave my Tungsten to a friend’s son who is like 20 and has the energy to carry a heavier tent

I bought the same tent on Sunnysports about 4 years ago and I love it. I now use a lighter 2P tent for backpacking, but the Marmot Tungsten 1P is solid for the price.
