Lunar Solo Backpacking Tent

This is NOT a “cheap” tent even though it is inexpensive. This tent gives you materials and features of a big brand tent. It’s VERY lightweight, durable, very water resistant, made of polyester fabric instead of nylon which is very nice, quality screen and zippers, great tie out points, plenty of space and head room (I’m 5’11”), large vestibules, excellent ventilation, the list goes on.I have used this tent extensively in heavy winds, rain, and snow. It has performed EXCELLENT.Six moon design is doing something right. Keep it up.

Six Moon Designs Lunar Solo Green well designed tent. It's very roomy inside for a one person tent and has quite a bit of air flow. The floor of the tent is very slippery. So you will need to add some dots on the floor of the tent with GEAR AID Seam Grip SIL Silicone Sealan. I bought the the version that you have to seam seal the tent your self. Just make sure you buy the right Silicone Sealant that Six Moon Designs recommendsThe only con about this tent is the fiberglass pole (you buy separately) it is too short, and you don't get the right pitch of the tent. So you don't get the full rise of the 6 inch side walls (bathtub) of the tent. Just buy a light weight hiking stick and make it about 3 inches taller then the fiberglass pole.This tent does have a bit of a learning curve when setting it up.

Simple to pitch if you follow the directions on video. First time, it took me 5 minutes to put up and 2 minutes to take down and pack. Spent first night camping in FL and had some condensation which is to be expected here. But the ventilation is superb as well as adjustable when you change height of trekking pole. Also packs down very nice and does not take up much space in the pack. I would highly recommend this to anyone considering a trekking pole tent that wants quality without being over priced.

It’s difficult to feel you have put it up correctly. After watching numerous YouTube videos and putting it up many times I am still not clear. The front door zipper is very hard to zip/ unzip as the front guy wire goes down right in front of it so you have to loosen guy wire every time you go in and out. It is light. I took it backpacking for 4 days - no hard rain so not sure how it does in rain. The floor could use its own tent stake loops to make floor stay put and less wrinkled. There are wrinkles in tent even after tightening.

Great value for an ultralight tent. Sets up best for me when I leave stake straps very loose until treking pole is in place then tighten stake straps. Avoid condensation by leaving door flap open a bit. Awesome tent.

Bought this tent to take with me on a backpacking trip in Arizona. Tent was great just as it is advertised. Very light, compressible and easy to setup. On my trip it snowed and had this tent up and slept in on top of 6 inches of snow. LOL. Did have a condensation issue but the humidity was high and cold a the time. Look forward to my next trip with it. Would have given it 5 stars but this can be a bit nit picky, had to buy stakes separately. Figure for the cost they would include stakes.

Absolutely love this tent. Easy to set up. Super lightweight. Fits me and my dog pretty comfortable. I’m 5”11 with plenty of room.

This tent just arrived. Pulled it out to set up, and realized this 200$+ tent doesn’t come with stakes. Well, I had some from another tent. Setup, tent is as expected. I’m just not over the fact, Six Moon is so cheap they could even supply cheap aluminum stakes. FYI those China tents and other cheaper tents come with stakes.
