Camping & Outdoor · Backpacking Tents
Are budget tents from brands like Naturehike and Kelty actually good?
Reviewer consensus
Specialist-community consensus on r/Ultralight and r/CampingGear is broadly positive: reviewers there repeatedly say budget tents from these brands punch above their price point and rival shelters costing 3-5x more, with the main caveats being fabric thinness, less robust zippers, and weaker warranties than premium brands like Big Agnes or NEMO.
