What Big Agnes Tiger Wall UL2 owners say

If looking at Big Agnes, I think the Tiger Wall is better. Slightly smaller, but much lighter.

There is no problem with ventilation in Tiger Wall since the inner tent is almost entirely mesh the amount of air coming through under the fly is plenty.

The big agnes will absorb water, sag, then weigh twice as much after you have to pack it up wet.

What Naturehike Cloud-Up 2 owners say

looks like a perfect tent for the UK.

it lasted me the entire 8 month cycle tour from Mongolia to the Netherlands, surviving insane wind, rain, snow and sand storms. Worth every penny.

I love the way the vent only works well if the wind is blowing the right way
