─ Is there a tent recommended for camping beginners?

"That's right. For beginners, we recommend the" coleman "generally the most basic type" Tough Wide Dome IV / 300 "and the" snowpeak "" Amenity Dome ". "

"The" Tough Wide Dome IV / 300 "is available in 3m x 3m, and the" Amenity Dome "is available in 2.7m x 2.7m. Generally, basic family tents can be roughly divided into 2.7m x 2.7m size and 3m x 3m size. 』\

After all these two famous brands seem to be recommended! Coleman and Snow Peak are probably the brands you've heard of if you're considering buying a tent.


─ What is the difference between "Tough Wide Dome IV / 300" and "Amenity Dome"?

"The point is that the material of the pole (framework) used is different. The" amenity dome "of" snowpeak "is made of aluminum, so it has the advantage of being light and strong when carried. "

"On the other hand, the pole of the" tough wide dome "of" coleman "is made of FRP material. The biggest points are that it is easy to assemble even for beginners and that it is excellent in cost performance. If you look at a little detail, a "ventilator (ventilator system: a system that allows ventilation)" is attached, and the air inside the tent is easy to circulate and ensures ventilation. "

─ I see. The "tough wide dome" of "coleman" and the "amenity dome" of "snowpeak" are both attractive.

"That's right. Also, the" Amenity Dome "of" snowpeak "is designed to be less affected by strong winds because it is made low in height. On the other hand, the "Tough Wide Dome" of "coleman" is made slightly higher, so it can be said that the emphasis is on the ease of spending in the tent. Such design parts also differ depending on the manufacturer. "


Camp beginners! Please check out the "Amenity Dome" of "snowpeak" and the "Tough Wide Dome" of "coleman" introduced this time at WILD-1! Next time, we will continue to ask the store manager, Mr. Morita, "How to choose a sleeping bag"! !! looking forward to! !!
