I'm in the market for a new tent and I'm having a close look at a Tentipi, unless we decide to go for something smaller like a Hilleberg.
Roughly speaking it seems that the two options we have before things get ridiculously expensive are:
- Varrie in polycotton with a floor, or
- Nibba (nylon) with inner tent.
These two work out fairly similar in price, so the question is whether the added features and better materials of the Varrie are worth more than the benefits of having an inner tent with the Nibba.
I was wondering whether anyone here has thoughts and experience with these.
For more background detail, we haven't yet decided whether to go with size 5 or 7, and we'll figure out which heating options later. We'll be camping over winter so condensation will be an issue, but we'll also use it in the summer where mosquitoes and other bugs will need to be kept out. Weight isn't an issue as we'll be with the car.
Any advice would be most appreciated!
Thanks,
Mark
