Thread: Looking to buy a 2 man tops Tent

I went through a few hoops on this question a few years ago, was sort of set on a Macpac Olympus (they are a bit heavy but bulletproof, or at least used to be) but then needed a single man tent in hurry so got a One Planet Goondie (1P). It proved to be very good indeed, way better than the two "top name tents" I had borrowed for a previous trip.

So on that basis I got a Goondie 2 person job, with full winter lining i.e. minimal mesh which is what you need for South Is tops anyway. It has not let us down, been used in two trips with significant weather. Its a bit lighter than an Olympus, much less costly, and has good ergonomics. It has one design quirk that some people don't like - you have to pitch it inner first, and you can't use just the fly. I've never found it to be an issue.
