Whether you are new to camping or are an experienced outdoorsman, buying a new 2 person tent is always a little exciting. If you are searching for a 2 person tent to use on your next family outdoors outing, there are a couple of things that you will want to think about before you make your big buy.
First thing to consider is how quickly you can take down and set up your tent. Since a 2 person tent are smaller the set up and taking apart should not be too difficult if you are setting the tent up every night you should consider instant tents. These are perfect for hikers that do not stay in one place but rather bunker down for a night, pack up and move along to the next location. Instant tents usually take only minutes to set up and taking them down is just as quick. Consider how long most tents take to set up, and the hassle that they can be, an instant tent is something to really consider. They come in a variety of sizes and should come in a 2 person tent as well.
You also want to check out what the tent is made of. Tents come made in many materials. Fiberglass, plastic and aluminum are the most popular due to their durability and light weight. A 2 person tent is small enough so that it will not be heavy no matter what it is made of but some people have a preference and it is something to keep in mind.
