The product quality leaves much to be desired, and the zipper at the entrance often jams, so you have to make an effort to close it. During rain, a lot of condensation forms inside or the tent leaks, so you'll get wet anyway. In dry conditions, the tent works fine, but in rainfall, it completely fails, making the purchase unsuccessful.

M05 camouflage
The M05 camouflage (Finnish M05 Maastokuvio) represents a series of pixelated camouflage patterns adopted by the Finnish Defence Forces in 2005, replacing the M91 design. Development involved digital analysis of photographs from Finnish forests during various seasons, conducted by the Finnish Forest Research Institute. Included in the M05 family are several variations, such as woodland, snow, and cold-weather patterns.
The primary woodland variant of M05 features segments in light green, dark green, brown, and dark graphite, accurately mirroring the composition of Finnish woodland environments. Owing to comparable vegetation and terrain, the M05 Woodland pattern also offers effective concealment in the woodlands of Central and Eastern Europe, ensuring reliable camouflage in natural settings.

At this price, I couldn't find anything better. It's small, compact, and quite lightweight. Obviously, there are even smaller options, but if you want to fit a bit more than just yourself inside, this choice is pretty cool. I haven't used it during heavy rain yet, but even a small tarp is enough to shield yourself from a downpour. It's better to have a separate tarp because you can use it for other needs as well.

Tent tested on Baltic beaches. Two moves and you lie down on the tent (staying on the beach at night—camping may result in a fine; I've camped on such remote beaches that there wasn't a soul around). If you're hiking with a backpack for a few days, it's the best option for the price. The downside is condensation, but since it's small and easy to turn inside out to dry, it's not a problem. This isn't the only tent I own; I have bigger ones with 3000 mm waterproofing. I haven't been in a multi-hour rain, but I carry a 3x2.5 m tarp (0.8 kg) with eyelets for guy lines, and in case of a downpour, it acts as a tarp. I recommend it.
-
The tent is brilliant! If anyone needs some alone time in nature, I wholeheartedly recommend it. The camouflage fits perfectly with Polish forests.
-
Great handy tent, with an ideal price-to-quality ratio. The materials it's made of hold up well in good weather, haven't tested it in the rain. Zippers work very well and do not get stuck.
-
The tent is excellent for its price-quality ratio but it's not a dream product. Tested during forest stays in winter conditions. Due to the construction of the tent, you should expect condensation. People over 180 cm must also expect reduced sleeping comfort—missing those extra 20 cm of length. It's hard to find anything better for this price, so ultimately the tent is worth recommending.
-
It would be good to add some kind of canopy over the entrance to the tent. In the rain, the mosquito net is not covered by anything and the tent may get water inside.
-
It's not a dream product, but looking at price-quality-compatibility, it's very good. One-person. I use it on motorcycle trips. It's hard to find anything better for this price.
-
For its price, I highly recommend it. It withstood light rain, and even if, like me, the last time you put up a tent was when you were 13-15 years old, it took me 15-20 minutes (and I had no idea what to do), plus there is a small manual inside the transport bag.

I had been searching for a fairly lightweight and small tent for two-day trips and I found one. The bivy is perfect for me since I'm not one of the tallest people. There's enough space inside for me alone and the rest of my stuff to sleep well. The weight of the tent is also good for its size. I hope it lasts me a long time, because I have a two-person tent for bigger trips, but I'm satisfied with this one too!
-
The tent has been tested and tried out in the field. Very light, easy and quick to set up, which matters a lot when time is short. Just as easy to pack up. My first time pitching it took me about five minutes, packing it up was even faster! After laying out a sleeping mat, there's plenty of space on the sides for the rest of the gear. A tent worth recommending, which is what I'm doing now!
-
It fully delivers what is described :) If you're taller than 180 cm, sleeping inside is uncomfortable, especially when it rains. You can't touch the tent or water will pour in. I'm 185 cm, I fit, it was moderately comfortable, but for this price, I'd buy this tent again. For one person, a small handy tent, so that rain doesn't fall on your face and bugs don't eat you, it's 10/10.

Good den, you can sleep comfortably.

Very light! You can attach it to the side of a backpack, well-made, nice camouflage. Also tested in the rain since the weather was bad this weekend—storm outside, but dry inside. I’m 187 cm tall and I fit lengthwise, my head is right by the outer fabric, but there’s plenty of space on the sides to put a backpack. Easy to set up and take down.
