Vango - Helium F10 UL2

F10 Helium UL1 or even 2 is still below that weight. Naturehike Mongar 15d is like 1.8kg. Phoxx is not a sit up tent. MSR might be worth a look, same design as the Naturehikes for more money and weight though

My Force 10 Helium UL2

I have only ever used my two person Vango Helium UL alone. I adore it.

I have always found vango to be good value for money tents. I have had 3 over the years for various purposes (7man family tent, 3 man comfortable weekend camping and a 2 man lightweight “backpacking”) Never let me down, just my opinion, I’m by no means a hardcore camper or expert on the matter

I posted this in a similar question earlier, but as it seems to be about the tent in question...... I recently purchased the OEX Bandicoot 2, but unfortunately, I had to return it due to a manufacturing defect in one of the pole hubs. The design features a small round metal ring with three holes tapped into it, and in my case, the machining was so poor that the thread simply wouldn’t hold. After the return, I decided to go with the Vango F10 instead, which, in my opinion, has a superior hub system. While examining other hub threadings, I noticed they all had quite a bit of room for improvement in terms of tolerance. This raised concerns for me; if a hub were to fail while on the trail, there wouldn’t be a realistic way to fix it. I was genuinely disappointed because the Bandicoot appeared to be a great option at a competitive price point. Perhaps my experience was an isolated incident, but it certainly made me hesitant about the brand and its design.

Naturehike or any vango within budget. You won’t go wrong with vango. My first wild camping tent was a vango and it lasted years. I was going to get it repaired, I loved it that much but now use a terra nova or wild country helm.

I'm assuming you're UK? Something by Vango or berghaus from GoOutdoors will do you fine. No reason to spend money if you don't need it (I killed a Vango tent in 3 weeks last year though so if it's more than an emergency tent then you may want to) Warning - last year camping in the black forest was near impossible without booking. I crossed it twice and it was slammed everywhere. The Vosges in contrast was lovely. Nice and quiet by school holiday standards so I'd head there first.
