The lightweight, fiberglass 7.9mm tent poles and 6mm fly poles are more resistant to rust and corrosion, but will not stand up to inclement weather as well as the more expensive aluminum poles that higher-end tents use.įiberglass poles are typically used in entry-level tents but if you’re only camping a few times a year in fair weather, the significant price increase might not be able to justify a tent with aluminum poles.

However, the rainfly’s hooded design helps promote some airflow, and the two generous mesh windows keep the air circulating and the bugs out. The tent stays nice and airy with the rainfly off, but like most other tents, the polyester sheet inhibits airflow when in use. Dome tents also offer superior protection from the elements. Like all dome tents, the sloping walls take some shoulder room away but give maximum headroom and stability in higher winds and bad weather. There’s also a loop for a camping lantern. You can stash your camping essentials in the gear loft or the two storage pockets, while the two side windows give you plenty of airflow. There isn’t a vestibule, which is a bit of a downer, but there IS a hooded rain fly to keep the showers away from your main door. Like other 2-person tents, the peak height of 4 feet (1.2 meters) isn’t enough to stand upright but you’ll be able to comfortably move around in a crouch. Unlike other tent manufacturers, when Tetragon says two people, it really means two people, not one-and-a-dog. With an interior floor dimension of 7 ft x 5 ft (2.13m x 1.5m) and a floor space of 35 square feet (3.25 square meters), the Tetragon NX 2 person tent fits two people comfortably in a single room.
