Hi all, still looking for a roomy two man tent or a 3 man tent. MAcpac etc don't seem to make 3 man tents nowadays.

We got this one from the states and love it!! Very easy to erect and light!! Only thing I didn'y enjoy was the seam sealing!!

I've got a 3-person Coleman Extreme Phad for sale for $150- it's got a big vestibule too. It's just a little too short for me (I'm 6 foot). It weighs 3.8kg, and is internal pitch, for when it rains. I'd trust it in all but the worst conditions. It's very warm as well.

Have you looked at the Hilleberg range?
Aus $ against the US is pretty good at the moment.
Nallo2, about AU$610 delivered when you cash in the bonus points on partial freight payment. 2.1 kg's.

Nallo3 for something bigger, there's some photos of someone using one somewhere here on the forum.

That sounds interesting. My old MAcpac is 15yo now and starting to show signs of wear - photo?

If you are under or around 6 foot the Hilleberg Nallo would have to be the best option unless you need a self supporting design. I have the Akto and Katium and they are just superb.

Well done - I reckon you'll be happy with it. I love my Olympus (got the older model with two large vestibules).

Nice SoaB,
Just secured a Nallo 3 second hand from this site, have not pitched it yet but have seen it in action, perfect for me and the two young boys - life is sweet.
