  • Wild Country Helm 1 Tent - Green review by Alastair , on 19/08/2019

    4
    Firstly the Climbers Shop Service was very good. I rang to enquire about availability as the tent is no longer made and Cus Svce told me the number they had and the likelihood of them all going swiftly - low. Secondly, the tent feels good. I’ve not tested it in anger yet, but my trial pitching and having a good hard look made me feel comfortable. Other reviews are pretty complimentary about the tent and from I’ve seen, they are right. A couple have said the quality is not the highest. I would say that might be true, but for £144 I think I’ve got VFM. I’m replacing a 16 year old Wild Country Solar. Yes, it probably was to a higher quality in materials but would be about £500 in today’s money. I’m not worried about the Helm 1 and look forward to using it.
