Thread: TENT; MIA vs Smith

Your video looks like there is a fireproof liner all the way up the wall behind the chimney, is that standard or did you put it in?

Cheers

Everything you see in all clips and photos are standard
When a stove is bought - it comes with a fireproof floor mat - own zip carry bag - smoke detector - gloves (useless ones :-) 5-7 pc chimney - all SS of course

But - yes all Tents with Fire/Stove capability - have the Fire cloth up the wall SS double Rings exiting "both" layers.
Also have a closable vent at floor level behind stove in wall of Tent for air to come in

Any chance of a price list / availability on the tents? Your google drive links don’t work, for me at least.

Can someone else try the Google Cloud links
Prices

I would rather email direct on prices so it gets across accurately
There are "many" options in Tents and Stoves

But my Tent above
The UP 2 which I just sold 7 of = $1665
The Stoves that went with those Tents sold = $595

Per m2 internal (floor area)
These price less than the other makes above
Then you need to also note the additional features these have - a sizable list actually
Not to mention
Vestibules as addons
Can attach Tents together
That is just addition to outside them

Work off this Canadian site - but use their prices as NZ$ prices

@Sarvo cloud links work for me.

Thank Keith

The Smith tent is better quality than MIA, that said the MIA is fine and fit for purpose.
Sarvo's tents have certainly got our attention, they look pretty well made.
Will keep an eye/ear out for reviews from kiwi hunters...coming soon hopefully?

If anyone wants to see one of Sarvo's UP2 tents in person, down south, Let me know as there is one in my garage.

He has the next size up
The UP 5
With 3m Vestibule that double lined with floor like Tent is
So if he wants he can put stove (he has the Medium) out in the Vesti with table an sleep 5 in Tent on stretchers and still room to party :-)

The bigger UP2

These UP models - all the interior is usable
Because of the circular interior shape and the fact you can touch sides with out getting wet

We have many other designs too
Best to say what you want in way of people (adult or children)

Other Tents I have seen - you can only stand under the middle center ridge line and cannot have bedding etc touching the sides - hence a lot of wasted space that is limited anyway

Anyway - look at this Canadian site
They have the 3 main UP models and a interior viewing option etc
Many other videos etc
