At Easter 2024 prices / deals this tent is only £30 less than the Naturehike Cloupeak 2 (£135 vs £165) How would you compare the two and which do you think is the better buy?

Best review of the Jackel II I’ve seen thank you 👍
Comment from : @DazzOutdoors-UK1

Thank you so much It’s a great lesson I will buy this soon
Comment from : @raaz6451

Is this still the top pick for someone on a budget needing a small(ish) tent that will take a tarp over the entrance to keep out the rain (we've had a lot of that lately! 💦😉)?
Comment from : @derekth71

Quality tent, gone up price a bit, but worth it for quality Got to replace my old Vango so I was looking at OEX, made my mind up after seeing your video That’s the tent I’m going getThanks for your review very helpful

Just got mine for 40 quid heading to Donegal at the end of the month so fingers crossed 😉

Lanshan 2 all the way

Got this tent for £130 on Amazon 😀
Comment from : @ScottLindemann

Thanks for this helpful review At this price, it seems a bargain Is it really worth spending several times as much for a premium tent? I know the silicon-coated tents used by many Youtube presenters are superior, but are they worth the initial outlay?

This tent done me well for my snowdonia trip in the summer late year, good tent

Looks a bit big for backpacking mind 😐

This reminds me of my Vango Hurricane Alpha, 30 years old and still going strong

I have just bought one from go outdoors for £100 there priced at £125 but at the minute they have got 20 off think it's till the end of October
Comment from : @stuartwelsh9961

Would you say this is better than the oex coyote 3?
Comment from : @jamespratt9229

It looks like my Vango mirage, but that is semi geodesic Which I like due to the ability to move it once it is up I love watching your tent reviews but won't be giving up my Vango mirage, ( which I think is now a Helvellyn) keep up the good work 👍
Comment from : @simoncee9011

Bought this recently I found when lying down my face was touching the net at the back of the tent I’m only like 5 10 or under and feet touching the door Annoying
Comment from : @TranceHeed

That tent looks great! Nice vid! Just checked go outdoors online,,, they have none :( Can u sit upright in it without your head touching the roof? Also have u tested in very heavy rain? I live in Ireland rainy lol
Comment from : @freedommusicireland7398

That looks like sweat box in summer

Great video man, just getting into camping and you're one of the best channels I've found Still trynna decide between this and the eurohike cairns 2 dlx for my first tent Oex seems better made overall but pricier and probably less warm in colder temps idk
Comment from : @JohnMcCfatty

Just got the 3 man version as was cheaper than the 2 man and not much bigger plus porch is real bonus for storage or bad weather cooking was gonna get the phoxx 2 man but seems tiny n no storage I can live with extra pack weight for more room and comfort
Comment from : @davidhudson7590

Nice tent, but why not have the ground sheet attached to the tent (bathtub)? I find that these kind of tents colder than bath tub style tents Good review
Comment from : @m0ther0ne

Did you also experience huge difficultly getting the larger pole hooked in? I was really worried I was going to rip the stitching on the tent 😬 only set it up in my living room, haven’t been out yet
Comment from : @fayedavis1150

I was humming and aarring between the jackal 2 man and the vango mirage Similar weight but your review swung me towards the oex Bad weather coming this weekend so I will update you Thank you for your great reviews
Comment from : @stevewebb5178

is this the successor to the Bandicoot?
Comment from : @paulbrough4861

Do you know if this tent is available in the states?
Comment from : @billb3374

Comment from : @KevinSmith-wr1sy

I ordered the phoxx 2 yesterday see the reviews about the size and clearance issues Also the inner tent first set up was really off-putting I wanna set this up in all conditionsso I cancelled that and ordered the jackal 2 based on this video Thanks again Will let you know how I get on 😊
Comment from : @ReeceDee

Really enjoyed this, I picked it up for a similar price at Christmas Thanks for being honest about the poles, I thought I was just doing something wrong/am really weak but seemingly they are just really strong poles! Also not sure if you noticed but the door flap has 2 zips, together is a blackout style & the other is just a single mesh window so you can have more airflow with out flies coming in :)
Comment from : @AnotherHipster

great vid andy
Comment from : @jasonmaddison6148

Yeah i fancy the open at both end jobs phoxx 11 v2 and msr hubba nx , i can carry either solo and be happy as i cant always get mates to spend a month or three up Scotland that monster porch to me just says excessive weight , iv no doubt its a great tent , but its NOT a backpacking tent , or expedition x country type tent , my two man hubba nx is 16 kg , ok its not as cheap but its roomy and possible to drag up most mountains The phoxx 11 v2 is a great long distance backpacking tent to
Comment from : @joekelly9369

To save time, can the inner part be left attached and it all roll up together?
Comment from : @pjchosen

Hi, thanks for the great video Would you say you can sit up inside the tent? Im new to camping and am not sure if thats a reasonable thing to expect in a 2man tent Im only 5ft4 so not tall by any means 😂
Comment from : @ro659

The porch (vestibule) area is great on this tent Bought mine from go outdoors Spot on 👍
Comment from : @tonyubr

Thats a good 2 man tent that Also looks really premium and for £80 i'd be really impressed with that Cheers Andy, another great review
Comment from : @mattsloan7147

Nice review Andy I have a small OEX Phoxx 1 tent and one of the poles fir that is quite hard to fit alsobrOEX is great value for money and I look forward to seeing this one in use when we can get out again 😀
Comment from : @thecampingastronomer8554
