North Face Stratos Tent

The North Face brand was created in California in 1968. The company is an outdoor product company that specialises in equipment for outdoor activities such as camping, hiking, climbers and skiers to name a few. Along with camping equipment the north face also specialises in outerwear, footwear and fleece jackets. The product reviewed in this post will be the North Face Stratos tent.

The North Face Stratos tent is a 3-4 man tent that is suitable for use all year round. The tent is most comfortable with probably 3 people in it, any more bodies in the tent may feel a bit cramped. One thing about the Stratos tent though is that it may be a bit on the heavy side. It is a 3 man tent though so the weight can be distributed amongst the group if backpacking. If you do like to keep as light as possible then maybe the north face Stratos will be a tad on the heavy side and then tent would be more suitable for car camping.

North-Face Stratos Features

The quality of the North Face Stratos tent is very good like you find with mostly all of the North Face product range. The tent has many cool features inside that makes your camping trip more enjoyable. The tent has two opposing doors which makes getting in and out of the tent very easy, no need to fall over your friends head or stamp on any hands clambering out of the tent in the evening. To help you find the tent zipper in the dark of the night there are also some funky cool glow tabs on the inside zippers. Another convienant feature added to the Stratos is the integrated storage pockets to store any goodies and a lantern loop to hang your night light up.

Another great option for the North Face Stratos tent is the option to only partially install the fly sheet on the ceiling, this enables you to have a great star view at night time. If it starts to rain or gets too cold then its very easy to quickly secure the roof over. The Stratos tent is very good in extreme weather conditions and can withstand high winds, heavy rain, sleet and snow. Upon review of the tent we found it can be a bit warm for use as a summer tent.

Summary of the Stratos Tent

The North Face Stratos tent is a great all round tent which will comfortably fit 3 people in. The tent can be used in all 4 seasons although we found it quite warm for summer use. The North Face Stratos tent is best suited for areas where extreme weather will be encountered. Overall the tent provides some cool features and is of great quality.
