Too good to be true? SUB-1KG 4 Season Solo Backpacking Tent!

Here is a review of my TFS Tents Enran 1 4 Season backpacking tent. This is an ultralight backpacking tent weighing just 952 grams and costing £324. The Free Spirits make high quality camping gear that is very well designed and thought out. This solo backpacking tent utilises trekking poles to make a very stable structure with a seamless taut finish.

The TFS Enran tent does use thin materials. However, the fabric has a very high tenacity, meaning it is very strong, and the 7d should probably be compared to a standard 20d tent fabric.

Note: Because the fabric is double-sided silicone coated, it is impossible to use machine seam sealing for this kind of fabric, because the fabric is too slippery and the machine cannot fix the fabric. So it can only be glued. But TFSTENTS expansion uses thread, which will expand when water seeps in, thus achieving waterproof effect.

NOTE: CAMPERLISTS OFFER A SEAM SEALING SERVICE FOR PEACE OF MIND
