Review on ๐Ÿ•๏ธ Kelty Late Start 2 Person Backpacking Tent (2019 Model): Top-rated portable shelter for outdoor adventures by Floe Rankin

Revainrating 3 out of 5

No ventilation in the rainfly

I love everything about this tent except the lack of a ventilation channel in the rainfly. I understand that there is a lot of airflow in the tent construction. probably normal under most conditions. My days were between 28 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit. I had a lot of condensation when I got up in the morning. Due to the shape of the tent, there were no drips on me. A large amount of condensation caused me to put away my wet raincoat and pack my things back every morning. Add ventilation and vestibule flooring to your Kelty groundsheet and you have 5. This is a great tent to pitch. Space for one person and equipment.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Operating Speed
