Where's the tent for the vacation?

Tent - "dormitory" for everyone

Not everyone can go on an expensive holiday, so the tent will be a cheap way for them to spend their summer holidays. Below you will find advice to help you choose the right tent for you.

Small or big?

The first thing that will define a tent is the number of people that will fit in it. However, it informs about the maximum number of people that can fit. Other items such as luggage will take up space and reduce the comfort of being inside. Therefore, in situations when we will be in the tent longer than just in our sleep and wanting to have more space inside. It's better to buy a size a little bigger. For two people and their luggage a 4-person tent is enough. However, you should also pay attention to the amount of space you will get to set up the tent and where it would take place. Family tents are big so it's better to take them to long campsites. Individually or in pairs, you should choose a slightly smaller model - especially if you intend to move around a lot and sleep in quite unusual places. The decommissioning process itself will be easier and faster.

Tradition or lightning speed

From year to year, instant tents, i.e. those that will set up by themselves and take a few seconds, are gaining popularity. For people who leave this activity at the last minute, as well as for those who plan to travel until the sun does not hide behind the horizon, this is a big plus. Unfortunately, the advantage of self-destructibility has a disadvantage in the form of complicated folding. If you do this incompetently, you can damage a component and it will make the tent unusable.

It's all because of the parts inside that can't be replaced. However, reading the instructions and following them will allow us to use the tent for a long time, even for several years. Traditional version will be better for those who stay in the same place for a long time, where both its layout and its assembly will be only single. This will be the best option for people planning a campsite. In addition, even if we damage a part of it, it can be repaired quickly. Manufacturers usually add additional replacement parts to their kits.

Quality and price

A tent is usually a cheaper way to go on holiday. That's why we're not very eager to buy an expensive tent. If the tent is to be used only once, the cheaper option will work. Similarly, those who do not look for comfort and spend time on "spontaneity" can spend a little less money on a tent. However, if the campsite is a tradition or we are going to go on a family holiday, a more expensive tent will be necessary. This, of course, means better quality. After all, it has to last a long time and be as comfortable as the first time.
