Fjällräven Abisko Shape 2

What a tent. Adore it

— Show original

Our first tent. Tested a few times in winter, spring and summer, in rain, moderate wind, snowfall and cold (about -6 degrees). Light and relatively convenient to travel. When you start to get a handle on the routine and have the ropes in order, it goes smoothly. A bit low to sit in. Otherwise, you are not bothered by a little condensation on the inner fabric, but when your head touches when you sit, it is a bit boring. Otherwise, there is not much condensation, but it can drip onto the inner tent in case of prolonged rain or large temperature differences. The lines are kept well taut in the wind when anchored properly (challenge for beginners when it is windy and snowing while the tent is erected, see the winter pictures). Handy with the drying lines after a day's hiking. Good to find a shady spot in calm summer weather - ventilation will be insufficient if you minimize the openings in the inner tent to keep mosquitoes and gnats out.

A very practical tent thanks to the spacious abcide. The accommodation is also spacious enough for 2 people.

I already opened it once and in a week I should go for a test drive for a couple of days. Upon opening, you noticed that the quality is of a different class than in the hundredth tent.

Shape 2 is good in terms of quality and erection speed. 6 minutes alone when everything works out. In terms of length, the sleeping space is also good enough for a 190-centimeter person. In terms of its width, the tent for two is a bit narrow, the sleeping pad may also be to blame. Sitting in a tent requires sitting with your head in the middle. It is possible, but the space is limited, so the tent is a bit low. The apse is big and one person's clothes fit well there. Maybe a dog too. The tent door is perhaps the worst part, it feels like water is dripping when you open it, but maybe you can't avoid this. The floor of the tent feels very thin, which may require buying a footprint for rockier places, maybe even everywhere other than the grass when setting it up. The tent has good air circulation and it shouldn't be a problem to cook inside.

Very high quality and light. Years, hopefully tens of years!

Reliable hiking accommodation, has already been tested even in strong winds without problems. In the apse, a seam leaks a little and the seating height inside is not the same as in the middle of the tent. I accidentally cut one of the arches and there was no part of the arch as a spare part. However, Fjällräven's customer service worked brilliantly and I finally got the spare part from Sweden!

Quick to set up, the color codes direct the arches to the right places. A good purchase

Very easy to set up. Luxury accommodation for one with a wide 65cm mattress. Two can only fit on narrow mattresses. Lots of hall space, excellent ventilation openings, both a mosquito net and fabric on the inner door. I appreciate the ready-made clotheslines in the sausage and in the hall. However, a thick mattress takes up a lot of space from the height and Makkari stays low, you can sit in the doorway when you push the mattress to the side. Feels safe even in the wind.

Easy to set up by yourself, easy to take down too. Spacious for one, but two sleep comfortably. It can withstand even harsh conditions, rain and snow stay outside, and despite the wind, the tent stays upright. Tested in autumn and winter weather. The apse is comfortably spacious, it fits things well and could also be used for cooking. The fabric feels durable and a repair kit is also included just in case. I think it's worth the price.
