Tents are any day popular shelter for camping. However choosing one is not an easy task. One might easily get lost amidst the various options available. Research well, before you buy one. Shopping questions to shopping assistants will help you with your research.
There are a number of factors to look at when you start your research. First, find out the actual weight and size of the tent when it is packed up. This factor comes into play if you plan on hiking to your campsite. The last thing you want to do is buy a heavy tent and have to haul it for a long distance. Remember, you will have more than your tent to carry so weight is important. If you are planning on hiking for most of your outdoor adventures, you might want to look for an ultra-light tent. These tents are designed to be as light as possible and take up very little space in your pack.
Second, find out the floor space size and peak height of the tent. Both of these statistics are important on making the right choice. By checking the floor space you will make sure you will actually fit in the tent when you lay down. This factor is especially valuable if you are tall and don’t want to have your feet sticking out the end of the tent. The next factor is the peak height, which is the highest point in the tent. If you want some head room in the tent you will want to compare tents by this factor
Third, choose a tent that is a little bigger than your need. Also decide on how many rooms you need. There are multiple room tents.
Finally, try to determine how much you want to spend on your tent before you hit the store. Remember cheaper ones are not sturdy. It’s a onetime buy and is worth shelling out some bucks. Also factors like how many times you plan on going camping each year, needs to be considered. If you are only camping once or twice each year you might be able to get away with a cheaper tent. But if you plan on using the tent multiple times each year, you will want to invest in a quality tent.
