A tip for people with silnylon trekking pole tents, after some rain you usually don't need to get outside and adjust the tension for each point individually. Just set the trekking pole up initially at a couple degrees of angle, and then when it gets wet, pull the bottom of the pole closer to the tent bathtub, straightening it from the bottom; increasing tension on the top of the tent and removing the sag.

My wife and I have the lanshan 2 and the lanshan 2 pro. I knew once seam sealed, it wouldn't leak. And you showed the fortius tent and compared it to the lanshan 1 pro. To be fair, the fortius is a 2 person tent so you can't really compare the sagging to a 1 person lanshan. The lanshan will sag a little but I've never had to make more than 1 adjustment after the sagging happened and no more sagging. The lanshan 2 and 2 pro are both incredible tents for the money. Properly set up, they won't sag much or need continuous adjustments. Usually, just 1 and done. The zpacks duplex is definitely half the weight of the lanshan 2 pro and the fortius but price vs. Those other 2 is where the lanshan shines. And, they can easily be made better with minor mods. I recommend the 3f ul lanshan 2 and 2 pro to anyone looking for a quality tent at a very budget price! I just ordered the Durston xmid 2 and am looking forward to putting it side by side with our lanshans and our duplex.

I have the Lanshan 2 and absolutely love it. Had it out in the rain multiple nights. It has outperformed any of my other tents. Thanks for sharing and thanks for your no nonsense reviews!!

I have 2 Lanshan 1 PRO tents.
1 pc 3 season and 1 pc 4 season.
I use 3-season ones in the forest and 4-season ones in the Swedish mountains.
I have now used them for 3 years and they work very well.
They are seam sealed.
I have during these 3 years more is 60 nights in them.
I've had them in heavy 24-hour rain and wind up to 20 sec/m wind in the Swedish mountain world without problems.
That's a lot of tent for that money.
I trust them 100%.
I use my hiking pole for the tent because then I can increase or decrease the ventilation depending on the weather.

Everyone I know that has these, love them. Yes it gets bad condensation when low winds as single skin, but for weight, room and quality, it’s tough to beat these. Tbh I think the non-pro version is great too. Heavier as double wall, but that solves getting your down bag wet. Amazing for the money imo

[larsaurelius]

I've had the Landshan 2 pro for years now. It's never failed me, the thing is light and compact too! Never needed anything else.

[WetaMantis]

YES!
I couldn't wait for your rain test and bought it anyway. Now I'm happy it performed well in your test.

[MarksShrimpTanks]

I seam sealed my own lanshan 2 and then I left it in the garden set up for a month and it didnt leak once, fantastic tent.

[jacobpeterson]

Thank you brotha for testing this tent out, and giving the facts as well as intelligent opinions based on years of knowledge, without agenda. And making your videos entertaining as hell. I'll watch an episode while solo camping occasionally. It's like camping with a bro. Appreciate you

Re seam sealing - I've used permatex flowable silicone 81730 and thin with mineral spirits just a bit. Apply with a narrow foam brush. Works very well and is a lot easier than working with really thick silicone.

I’ve used a Lanshan 2 person for a few years. For the money it’s a good tent. Light weight and easy to pitch (once you get the hang of it). Mine leaked on the tie out points on the end walls a bit of seam seal and she’s good to go

[IntenseAngler]

Great test on an awesome and budget friendly tent brother.

[Jondantic]

So far so good with my Lanshan pro. Used it in high winds and solid rain and other than the condensation it has performed perfectly

[ItsAStephanieB]

I have the 3F UL 2 Pro and loves it. Seam sealed it myself and had no issues.

[markall]

I think this tent is awesome! I would like to have a good inexpensive backpacking tent around just for an occasional use. and not wanting to spend a lot of money. I would very much like to see the 2 person tent. by a trusted Youtuber... Luke you are the man. and my go to person if I am looking for good gear I can trust. thanks for your hard work and dedication

[CaptainCandycorn]

Nothing beats the Teton sports mountain ultra series for price/performance.

[agatho]

I have this tent. I seam sealed it myself. In the last year, it became my favorite tent. Minimalist and lightweight. I had only a few days of rain in this time, but with no issue. No leaking at all.

[billball]

please do the Lanshan 2 review. The Pro version. A much roomier tent than the lanshan 2. Love the reviews you do!

[antonslegers]

Your videos gave me the confidence to order this tent to use on a through hike and to replace my heavier, too spacious MSR Hubba Hubba NX2. I am looking forward to do the seam sealing with your technique and test in out soon!

[mikefemenella]

Thank you for this review. I'm considering this tent for a scout trip to Philmont Scout Ranch but the other backpacking tents out there are crazy expensive.
