Review on Alpinizmo Redwood 5F Latitude Sleeping Monodome by Richard Edwar

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great offer! on camping

I was just amazed at the quality of this set! Look, I camped ((travelled in high school) for a year as a teenager), that should be enough about my wilderness experience lol. Now it's my turn to take my 9 year old on a hike for the first time in two weeks. Sleeping bags, both sleeping bags blew my mind, they are very well made and according to the label they can withstand very low temperatures. The material is similar to a typical North Face sleeping bag, and for those who don't know, NF is the leading outdoor gear brand. So that was a big plus in my book. You can connect both bags together as they are very beautiful and very long. I'm almost 5ft 7" and still have plenty of room inside, my 5ft 11" son also has plenty of room inside. It will fit my daughter but maybe a child size would be better but I have decided to buy it long term and not just for one time use. Now to the tent. I set up the tent with a little help from my 17 year old teenage son and it took about 10 minutes if that's the case. The tent had its own plastic bag, lockable poles with two front and one rear ((very easy)). The Poles also brought a bag to keep them safe along with the pegs (( have your own bag too!). Raincoat. So it has one on top and doesn't cover the whole tent just the top. (( I would definitely recommend buying a separate one)), but it's enough for us now.There are no windows on the sides of this tent, that is, there are no ventilation holes, but the front door of the tent can be left open with a net, the Top can also be left open but this removes the fly at the top...and this helps the condensation a bit.I will update this review once I start it in two weeks to see how it holds up.and FYI me paid 33.00 for this set and now it is 100.00 plus. don't know why but check amazon they have other sets in this price range!
