Hello,
I am looking to upgrade my current camping set-up to go camping with my partner and my dog (by car), as I currently have an MSR ELixir 2 and it is far too small for the 3 of us!
We want to pass to canvas tents, and have something durable with some sheltered living space where we can spend time even when outside is bad weather. While we currently live in France and often go camping in the French mountains or in Italy, we will move to the Natherlands soon where we expect to meet stronger winds. So we are looking for a tent that can do well in strong winds and cold, but also in hot weather! We usually go camping with a double inflatable mattress which is 180 cm x 135 cm, so we need some space for that and for sheltered living area. At the same time, I would like to not exaggerate with the size of the footprint as I am afraid that going for a toob big footprint would reduce versatility of the tent...
I have my eyes on the Cabanon Guadeloupe and on the ESVO Beduin 240. Would you think these are good fit for what described above? And would you advise one over the other? Finally, given the high price of the tents, I am wondering if I should try and meet the price for a new tent or if it is possible/advisable to find them in good condition second hand.
Thank you everyone for the input, we are hoping this to be a tent for a lifetime of camping adventures so we are trying to make a good choice!
