Mongar Pro 2-Person Ultralight Backpacking Tent

Check out the Mongar 2 pro. RRP is 170 but it's new - hopefully will start seeing reductions soon. Don't get the previous version if you want 3 season use. Cloud up 2 is cheaper, but I think the Mongar 2 pro is worth the extra if you can stretch the budget.

Yea I got the brown. That's the one. I've only spent a couple of nights in it, it's VERY good for the money, but it definitely doesn't feel premium (as it shouldn't) in all aspects. Just to be clear, it's not some miracle product heh Edit: I did pitch it outer first in the rain though, it's AWESOMELY easy.

Mongar UL 2p: lots of mesh https://www.naturehike.com/products/mongar-ul-2-person-ultralight-backpacking-tent?_pos=1&_sid=6d3b3fe25&_ss=r Mongar 2 UL: also lots of mesh, idk how it’s different from the previous one other than fly color/material https://www.naturehike.com/products/mongar-2-person-ultralight-backpacking-tent?_pos=2&_sid=6d3b3fe25&_ss=r Mongar Pro 2 UL: less mesh, honestly to me the mesh looks comparable to star river, presumably this is the new one https://www.naturehike.com/products/mongar%E2%84%A2-pro-2-person-ultralight-backpacking-tent?_pos=3&_sid=6d3b3fe25&_ss=r Star River 2p UL: not a lot of mesh https://www.naturehike.com/products/star-river-2-person-ultralight-backpacking-tent?_pos=2&_sid=fd9c84fc1&_ss=r Star River UL 2p: some sides have more mesh than others https://www.naturehike.com/products/star-river-ul-2-person-ultralight-backpacking-tent?_pos=4&_sid=fd9c84fc1&_ss=r Also, NatureHike should do a better job of naming their products, it’s honestly a little confusing. Assuming the non pro version of the mongar 2 is available in OP’s region, the regular mongar 2 UL have a lot of mesh and are good tents, especially on a budget.

Naturehike was also my recommendation, I have two of their tents, the Mongar 2p packs down small, there is only room inside for 2 people, no room for gear, gear goes in the vestibule. It has 2 entrances/exits and 2 vestibules, a mesh bag at the head and foot, and a net above to store some items inside the tent. I went with the 210T polyester over the 20D nylon since the polyester is still fairly light and I valued the UV and rain sag resistance as well as cost over the weight. If you want more space, they do have a 3p version. I’d take a look at their tents and see if there’s anything that fits your criteria. I don’t think there’s really a category that fits this style of camping, the closest I can think of is motorcycle camping. r/motocamping I assume weight doesn’t matter as much as space/volume does for them but I could be wrong, I don’t frequent that sub.

I also enjoyed Mongar 2 as a not expensive but quite roomy tent for backpacking. Recently update to x-dome 2 and I enjoy it - even more spacious, still has 2 entraces & vestibules and is over 1kg lighter (I had mongar polyester 240 version).

I have a cloud up 1, star river 2, and a friend just got a mongar 2. It's essential to get through silnylon fly IMO. I've been through hours of rain and have never had a drop in my tent. OP, look at the mongar 2. I believe it's smaller and the side entry is a huge improvement. It also has a lot more room under the fly for gear.

I have the Mongor2nd edition 2p tent and while I have only used it in near-but not freezing conditions it is plenty warm even in the wind. Pad and sleeping bag is the only thing you should worry about. Unless you are planning an Everest expedition or a dogsled trip to the South Pole.
