1. Consider the space of the tent  

If you are camping on foot, consider the weight of the tent  . You can prepare according to the number of people marked in the tent  . But if you are camping on your own, or do not need to carry the tent   on foot for a longer period. You can make the tent   space more relaxed. For example, if you are camping with 1 person, you can choose a 2-person tent  . If you are camping with 2 people, you can choose a 3-person tent  . If you are camping with a family, it is necessary to choose a 4-6 person tent  .

2. Spire, square top, dome tent  , which one to choose?

According to the shape of the top, outdoor tent s can be divided into spikes, square tops, domes, and other types.
Tip-top tent : similar to the triangle, is also the earliest tent shape. It is simple structure, convenient to set up, lightweight, and cost-effective. But because of the side of the triangle, space is more cramped.
Dome tent : It is currently the most used tent shape. The space is much more expansive than the peaked tent . And its shape is suitable for outdoor windy weather use, the structure is stable.
Square top tent : maximize the space of the tent , but the stability is poorer than the dome tent .

3. the lighter the better? It depends on the use of the environment.
When going out, the partners are not willing to carry heavy equipment. So lightweight outdoor products are increasingly popular. But the lightweight tent is necessarily better?
The same structure of the tent , if you want to reduce the weight, you need to reduce the burden on the fabric, the tent pole. This has two consequences. One is to keep the original function based on using lighter materials, so the price will increase. Another is to use less dense fabrics, reduce the diameter of the tent pole, etc., which will reduce the functionality of the tent .
So if it is a self-driving trip, you may want to think less about the light weight of the tent , and more consideration of the comfort and stability of the tent .

4. tent   with front exit or front hall, more convenient

Usually refers to the space between the outer tent   and the inner tent   of the tent  , this space is very important. For example, after a day of hiking shoes, a larger backpack, cooking utensils after use, and other bits and pieces of equipment. Scattered outside at night will be unsafe, put in the tent   and a little dirty, put in this space is just right.

5. Compared to the waterproof index, these places are more important

The outdoor climate is uncertain, and when it rains suddenly, the rainproof function of the tent   is particularly important. Therefore, it is important to ask about the rain resistance index of the tent   when purchasing. Whether the tent   has waterproof stickers, the structure is easy to water is also important. Because, most of the time, rain doesn't seep through the tent   fabric. And in the seam, or water (tent   top, anterior hat brim, etc.) accumulation and infiltration rates are greater.
