"I'd go for the 3, I had this tent with my GF. Much more room. The 2 would be abit cramped for 2 people."

"I hate that nylon sags and it's actually pretty weird it sucks up water. The last thing you want a tent to do is get heavier, stay wet and lose tension."
"CloudUp badly needs to be widely staked, otherwise sides fully sag inside."

"at 183cm with some extra space for the bag with 450g of down to get the loft that tent was not enough. My head was barely touching the mesh doors of the inner, while my feet were already pushing the inner against the fly (with the tent properly tensioned!) Woke up with wet bag and cold as hell feet. Didn't bother to use it again."

"Only thing is I wish it had more storage inside."
I have the Naturehike Cloud up 3 that has enough room for 2 full-size sleeping pads and 2 60l bags. I've used it for winter as well. The upgraded version comes with a snow skirt. Only one entrance, though. Nice and light for the square footage while being highly versatile.
r/CampingGear • Could I ask for recommendations for a backpacking tent for two people and two medium/small dogs? ->I also have used the Cloud Up (3) and cannot recommend it enough to my friends. It's kept me dry and even warm with winter camping last xmas. It comes with a good ground mat, but getting an additional tarp to hang above would make things extra safe, as stated by others. Only thing is I wish it had more storage inside.
r/CampingGear • Need advice regarding a Packable tent ->for reference, the Nature Hike Star River 2 is 53in x 84.5in 134.5cm x 214.5cm The REI Half Dome 2+ is 56in x 92in 142.2cm x 233.6 cm and the REI Half Dome 3 is 70in x 90in 177.8cm x 228.6cm EDIT Cloud 3 is 68.9in x 84.6in 175cm x 215cm I'm not a big fan of the Y style tent poles, as I feel like they don't hold up as well to winds compared to more traditional double pole designs, though they are lighter for obvious reasons. I do recommend measuring your sleeping pads and make sure there is enough room if you go with a 2 person tent. It does look like the Star River is pretty decently sized though in this regard if you're both using wide pads. I do personally like having extra room in the event of a weather event. I would highly recommend getting a larger 3 person tent for 2 people to have extra room for gear, or just moving around comfortably if you're stuck 'indoors' due to weather. Having extra floorspace as well as headroom can be amazing in those situations.
r/camping • Helping finding a tent! ->Sounds good! I also got the cloud up 3, which does sag a little but it has been very waterproof for many years already
r/CampingGear • Does anyone here use or tried the Naturehike Mongar 1 or 2 UL variant? Curious about your experiences with it. ->Seems like the naturehike cloud up 3 might be a solid option for ya. It’s a little heavier at 6 pounds. But I got one for like $165usd and found that splitting it up between my gf and I. Leaving the matt and half the stakes at home. Makes carrying it up pretty doable. Planning on upgrading to a Big Agnes or Durston tent eventually
r/backpacking • Best lightweight 3P tent ->I use the Cloud up 3 for my girlfriend and I. Pretty light for a three person.
r/wildcampingintheuk • Wild camping with my gf - TENT SUGGESTIONS ->I'd go for the 3, I had this tent with my GF. Much more room. The 2 would be abit cramped for 2 people.
r/wildcampingintheuk • Wild camping with my gf - TENT SUGGESTIONS ->I really like my Naturehike Cloud Up 3, I have it for many years and its still great.
r/CampingGear • Looking for a tent, this price seems really good but maybe too good to be true. Does anybody here have any experience with this tent/brand? I'm looking to camp in semi-wet/rainy conditions as I live in the Pacific Northwest. any other recommendations besides this product are more than welcome :) ->Just about any $200 tent can pack down into a 2-3L fork bag if you compress it and put the poles elsewhere. Both my NatureHike 3p and 2p Cloud up fit in my fork bags
r/bikepacking • Top Temu/amazon bike packing tent and camp gear suggestions? List any and everything..MEGA THREAD ->I carried a NatureHike brand 3 person tent in a dedicated front handlebar bag. 10/10. Seriously. 3 season ready and quick to deploy when using a dedicated bag. 👌
r/bicycletouring • How feasible is bringing a tent while wanting to pack as light as possible? ->Naturehike cloud up is my budget recommendation
r/CampingGear • Best backpacking tent under $150/200? ->I also have a cloud up and it has lasted 4 years so far with fairly heavy use. Great budget tent.
