STOVEHUT TENTIt's low priced because it's polyester. That's not as strong as nylon and a bit heavier but for the price it might be worth a try. It weighs 6 lb plus the weight of the stove so it wouldn't be good for long trips.

Evenin, is that one of the Tigris tents? I bought there baker style tent, oh maybe 4yrs ago. It's standing up pretty good. No Fire hole but was thinking of putting one in. They seem to have some designs that are well thought out. For that price I'd try it out. Put it & a stove in a sled or tabogan hike into some remote lake for some ice fishing. GWPGUY. πΎπ£π¨π¦

A friend sent the link to me. I've never heard of Stovehut. It would be more useful if you have a way to carry it other than on your back.

For $160 I'd be interested.
Most people don't really want the truth.
They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.

Pomoly is the company name. I think for the price they should work pretty well depending on your needs. Several years ago I bought a tipi from a competitor (Luxe) and it's held up well (probably made in the same factory). The US distributor for Luxe based out of Fork, WA ended up fugging a ton of people by just collecting their money and never sending the product. Of course the company stopped allowing him to do business. I've seen quite a few posts on other forums and FB pages that seem to talk highly of Pomoly. Their return policy is definitely better than Luxe. If you took it out of the box Luxe wouldn't let you return it! You could spend 8-10 times the price and go with Seek or Kifaru and get a better product, but I don't think it's always necessary. This is my setup.

Its low priced because its a no name brand made in CHyenah, not because its polyester.

I have a stove that's very similar to the one in the OP. I wouldn't want the tent that close to it. It eats a lot of wood and doesn't hold a fire very well, but it can get really hot. I would get a piece of fireproof fabric, like Nomex, and sew it above the stove.

I had the luxe version of that double pole tent. Not enough headroom...stick with a tipi. Not all that easy to get a tight pitch with it, in spite of its appearance.

I bought the double pole one as well right before they went sideways. Still haven't used it. I like the Tipi with the tarp off of it for the height and space.

Looks like a terrible design. Minus the stove it may be suitable for a summer tent for the kids in the back yard but as a backwoods shelter that you could rely on when the weather goes south ... not so much. Take a look at that unsupported chimney and imagine what a solid wind would do should the wind come up while the stove is running hot.
Heavy, poorly designed of suboptimal material and manufactured offshore in the service of saving a few bucks. Everything about the design screams disfunctional junk. No thanks, paying local people a fair price for producing a quality product is a no-brainer for folks who actually use and rely on their kit.

NorTent makes a similar design but itβs bigger and way more expensive. The stove jack is in the center and thereβs optional inner tents for both ends of the tent. It also has a lot of guy out points. They make some very nice looking tents. https://nortent.com/products/nortent-gamme-6-arctic10

If its actually cold Arctic ovens are pretty nice. Heavy, but warm, even at -30.
