Why We Like The Aspect 3 Tent

The Mountain Hardwear Aspect 3 Tent is surprisingly robust for how little it weighs, and even more surprisingly compact compared to most 3-person tents. The Sil nylon fly offers reliable, 3-season protection from wet weather, while the 3/4 mesh canopy maximizes airflow for warmer weather. There are two full-size doors and vestibules large enough for three backpacks. DAC Featherlight poles provide a sturdy setup without weighing you down on the trail, and one of the poles is pre-bent to give better headspace. Guyout points with included guylines and stakes keep sturdy in windy weather. Four internal pockets organize all the small things for a cleaner living space.

Can't wait to use it...but not with six feet of snow on the ground.

It's a Christmas gift, so we haven't slept in it. But we set it up in our living room. Really easy to set up. Incredibly light. Great design.

Not water proof at all

I bought 3 tents for my guests because I run a small trekking company in Peru, but we had a really bad experience with these products because our gear inside the tents got wet.

Amazing Hiking Tent!

This is an amazingly light, super comfortable hiking tent. It’s probably the best tent I’ve ever owned.

Used this tent for 4 years

Size Bought:
3 person

I bought this exact model 4 years ago. I am a wildland fire fighter, so I need a lightweight but durable tent. I bought this tent knowing I'd be living in it for 14-21 days at a time. I used Camp Dry (blue bottle) and seam sealer on the rain fly, floor and footprint for added protection. This tent held up against all sorts of weather from 112 degree days in Arizona to 28 degree nights in Oregon, it served me well until it finally wore out. It is incredibly easy to set up and very roomy. It fits my gear, myself and my cot. This tent held up to 40 mph outflow boundaries, heavy rain and even light snow. I was a bit skeptical at first, due to the thin fabric and light poles, but the thinness added flexibility so it withstood the winds better than stiffer, heavier tents. My only negative comment is that you have to be careful about the loops on top of the tent as they sometimes come off the hooks and I have to rehook them. I was so pleased with this model that I immediately ordered the exact same tent to replace my old one. Great little tent!!

Epic adventures await with this tent!

Easy to set up, even on first attempt didn't take more than a few minutes (alone) - it's intuitive, nothing to overthink about (like matching colours, trying to guess the side or whatever). The pole hooks for inner tent cords are an amazing innovation - I did treat them carefully after reading some negative reviews, but they don't look like snapping anytime soon. Very roomy inside, thanks to slightly pre-bent poles. It's a proper hotel for 2 and child/dog/gear, or a cozy place for 3. All in all - that's probably the best tent I've ever had at a fraction of the weight (1.8kg full set!!!). And the only thing it's missing (considering the price point) is a footprint, which is not that easy to find even to buy separately online.

Fair weather tent only

Yes its light weight but it fails in a few departments I bought this tent to replace my Nothface stormbreaker for sheep hunting, it's lighter and saves room in your backpack but as I found out it has very little integral strength to it, when the wind picked up at night the tent was flattened to our faces, the poles were chattering like it was about to break apart. The fly seemed fairly water proof but the amount of condensation that formed inside during a rain was ridiculous, It basically rain inside as well. The tie downs from the fly to the base tent are just very thin pieces of para cord , not your usual tent pole clips or holes, when the wind picked up it would pop these off. It does not come with a base, you will need it unless your pitching this tent on a grassy field of some sort, the tent material is vey thin. If you want a fair weather, summer camping tent that you can use at a music festival then this is for you. Pretty disappointed in this tent as usually Mountain Hardware makes pretty decent gear.

Very happy with this tent

This is the first backpacking tent I've owned in 30 years. I've only used it once so far, but both my wife and I were very happy with the tent. It was quick and easy to setup and it was comfortably big for the two of us and some of our stuff.

exactly what I was looking for

The Mountain Hardware Aspect 3 Tent exceeded all my expectations during my recent 10-day backpacking trip in Colorado. This tent proved to be an exceptional companion in the rugged wilderness, providing reliable protection and comfort throughout my journey. One of the standout features of the Aspect 3 is its durability. Despite encountering harsh weather conditions, including heavy rain and strong winds, the tent remained rock-solid and impervious to the elements. Its robust construction and high-quality materials gave me peace of mind, knowing that I was sheltered from the unpredictable mountain weather. Setting up the Aspect 3 was a breeze, thanks to its intuitive design and color-coded poles. Even after a long day of hiking, I could effortlessly assemble the tent in a matter of minutes. The freestanding structure allowed me to choose the ideal campsite without being limited by the terrain, providing flexibility and convenience. Inside, the Aspect 3 offered a spacious and comfortable living area for three people. The tent's well-designed floor plan maximized interior space, ensuring ample room for gear storage and movement. The two doors and vestibules were a fantastic addition, allowing easy access and providing extra storage for our backpacks and muddy boots. Ventilation was superb in the Aspect 3. The tent featured strategically placed mesh panels and vents, which effectively circulated air and minimized condensation. Even on warmer nights, I enjoyed a cool and refreshing sleep without feeling stuffy or claustrophobic. Furthermore, the tent's lightweight design was a blessing during our backpacking adventure. It packed down compactly, fitting seamlessly into my backpack without adding unnecessary weight. Its durability didn't compromise its portability, making it a perfect choice for hikers who prioritize both strength and convenience. Overall, the Mountain Hardware Aspect 3 Tent proved itself to be a top-notch shelter for my extended backpacking trip in Colorado. Its outstanding durability, easy setup, spacious interior, excellent ventilation, and lightweight design make it a reliable and versatile choice for outdoor enthusiasts. I highly recommend this tent to anyone seeking a reliable and comfortable shelter for their wilderness adventures.

Light and durable tent

I have had this tent for over a year and so far it has held up well. I had to set it up at night once with high winds and rain and stayed dry despite the terrible weather. The mesh actually helped because it kept the tent from being blown away during set up. (It did require 2 people to attach the fly and I did have a towel to dry the tent inside after set up). Attached is an image the next morning, I undid the vestibule due me beginning to pack up. I have also tested it in the backyard during a blizzard and besides occasionally tapping snow off through the night it did make it through. I would not recommend it (it is a three season tent)but it is good to know that in a pinch or a change in weather the tent will hold up. The fly despite being very thin has held up to everything I have thrown at it. I have been careful with it to keep it from being punctured. On a clear night the mesh is great for falling asleep under the stars. As a previous reviewer stated some of the hooks do become undone if the weather is bad but never enough to compromise the integrity of the tent. (At a maximum 2 on the top out of 5). Overall this is amazing tent that is light, yet more durable than similar tents on the market. And yes it will fit three people comfortably with 20” wide pads (gear had to stay in the vestibule). With the silicon what’re proofing being just the cherry on top. Look to use it for many more years to come!
