Best Tents for Camping

What are the Best Quality Tents?

Here at ArcticDry, we are a fan of a number of different tent brands, including Vango, Coleman and MSR. This is because they are tried and tested brands, that have thousands of reviews respectively. If you're searching for an inflatable tent, then Berghaus make a very good example of this with their Air Tent, saving the kerfuffle of setting up a dome tent / geodesic tent and fundamentally saving time on your camping trip.

Best 2 Man Tent

In our testing of some of the top camping tents, we have been continuously impressed by the MSR Elixir 2 Camping Tent:

MSR Elixir 2 Man Tent - The MSR Elixir in our opinion is one of the best 2 man tents you can buy today, coming in at 2.75kg, it is the perfect companion for your hiking trips, and is robust enough to cope with rough terrain and horrendous UK weather.It features their patented StayDry doors technology and comes with colour coded bars for an easy and quick set up; meaning that when you want to pitch this tent in poor weather conditions, you can do so easily and efficiently.

Best 3 Man Tent

In our testing of some of the best 3 man tents for camping we would opt for the following tents: the Coleman 3 Man Blackout Tent, and again: the MSR Elixir 3 Man Tent

Coleman 3 Man Blackout Tent - Coleman are known for the quality of their camping tents, and the Coleman 3 Man Blackout Tent is no exception; this one is a true beast of a tent and the blackout technology makes all the difference for a good nights sleep
MSR Elixir 3 Man Tent - Similar to their 2 man tent, the MSR Elixir is a top performer in all categories, including weight, quality, construction and how easy it is to pitch.

Best 4 Man Tent

When it comes to the best 4 man tents, Coleman Tents really shine through with their range of 4 man tunnel tents, 4 man family tents & 4 man dome tents also.

Compact 4 Man Compact Dome Tent - This Tent is also available in a 3 man version, but the 4 man offering is also a very good choice for those looking to camp without the luxury and XXL size of the Oak Canyon 4 below.
Coleman Tent Oak Canyon 4 - This is a beautiful example of a family tent by Coleman. It is 100% Waterproof, comes with their Blackout Technology, and weighs only 18kg, which for a huge 4 man family tent, is actually a respectable weight.

Best 5 Man Tent

It comes as no surprise that Coleman also dominate the 5-6 man Tent market as well, their family tents with blackout technology is just such a solid purchase for a family looking to camp out.

Coleman 5-6 Man + Octagon Tent - This Tent comes with a 360 Degree view and mesh roof, along with their blackout technology. Its 20kg, which isn't the lightest by any means, but you get real bang for your buck with this tent.
Coleman Waterfall 5 Deluxe - This is a very spacious dome tent that comes with a tunnel extension. It's not the most spacious when compared to the 5-6 Man Octagon Tent above ^ but works very well, and it is also incredibly lightweight at 1.35kg.
