Eureka Spitfire Tent: 1-Person 3-Season

Eureka Spitfire Tent: 1-Person 3-Season

Rating for this product: 5 February 11, 2009

I tour on a bicycle. Space and weight are at a premium. The Spitfire 1 packs into one pannier with room to spare, and weighs just a little over 3 pounds.

I've had this tent for 3 years and pitched it over 100 times. It shows no significant signs of wear. No tears, no loose seams. The aluminum, shock corded poles are tough and so are the two zippers. Set up/take down is simple, quick, and easy

No leaks in heavy storms, but some misting, which I understand is normal for tents like this.

I especially like the peak height which is about 43", taller than almost any other solo tent. Vestibule space is limited, but I find room for 4 panniers inside.

If you're less than 6' tall, then I can recommend the Spitfire 1 without reservation. If taller, look at the Spitfire 2. Same design, just much bigger.

Great little burner.

I'm a touring cyclist and have used this stove for 3 years. Have looked closely at the multifuel burners, but stick with this one for its simplicity, reliability, and portability.

The larger cannister will last 2-3 weeks with careful use. They don't want you using a wind screen for fear of overheating the cannister, but it really is essential for maximum performance. I just use a piece of heavy aluminum foil around 3 sides, and monitor the temp of the cannister.

For longer trips, the cannisters can be mailed ahead for pickup. Sometimes required as they can be hard to find outside major sporting goods stores.

A standard butane lighter will fit in the neat triangular carrying case.
