Wechsel Venture 2 Person Tent

Wechsel just make some great quality tents and the Venture series are great quality, free standing tents that are perfect for back packing and being on the move as they are lightweight without compromising quality. 

I know there are probably 20 other tents that "Look" the same out there and can be half the price but we don't do that at The Bushcraft Store. We have chosen Wechsel tents as they are just a step up in quality. This model, for example, will have high quality Aluminium poles not the cheaper resin fibre that breaks down with wear and UV and then snap when you're in the middle of nowhere. The materials used are just better quality all round so if you want a cheap disposable festival tent then best to shop elsewhere as this ain't it! 

One the easiest way to get your head around the Wechsel range, from my experience, is that the higher the price the lighter the materials used in construction. This, therefore makes the final product lighter to carry. Now, that doesn't mean they are less robust, they just use materials that are more expensive to make.  

The Venture 2 is a freestanding hybrid tent for two person - including two vestibules. This is great for two people as you are not then climbing over each other to get in and out and waking the other person up. You can also access your own kit as you have your own vestibule.

Of course they have aluminium poles which feature two aluminium hubs at the poles which ensure high wind stability. The inner tent is set up first and the fly is then placed over. The additional pole forms the vestibule, as soon as the fly sheet is stretched over it. For a very light weather protection, the fly sheet can be set up by using the Groundsheet. The inner tent is equipped with mosquito mesh in the doors as well as at the foot and head end. Additional inner tent pockets ensure order and offer space for otherwise odds and ends.
