- In this video we would like to present you a new ultralight Decathlon tent - Forclaz MT900 2 person trekking tarp tent. As far as we know this is a brand new tent that still doesn't have many reviews on it and hasn't been tested and used much. This tarp type tent has been made of the lightest materials and designed to be as ultralight as possible. And we believe it is the lighest trekking tent available in Decathlon for now. That's what caught our attention in the first place and in the second place was the color - it is crisp white. So if you are interested to dive into more details about this unusual tent and see how it performs, keep on watching!

Do you think this ultralight tent is worth its price? Is not using the paint the only way?
I've used the tent for many night, but the real test came on the Tour du Mont Blanc. The tent withstood Alphine wind and thunderstorms. I was sceptical about the white color, but it cleans easily. The 2 doors system result in good ventilation. I use it as a 1-person tent (I'm 190cm) with my kit inside, so I'm spoiled with space. No tent is perfect, but I will buy it again for the durability, weight and serving me well under harsh conditions.
You finally got it! This is the original version. The newer one is completely white inner and outer. This version is better and also cheaper. You can use carbon tarp poles in place of the trekking poles to cut weight. True about the inner pockets and more points to connect to prevent sagging inside. Also feel there should be a middle hook for a light. If there is a way to dye the outer green it would be perfect. Lastly if the inner was fully mesh!
I have the newer, all white 2 person version and I love it. When you stake the tent out properly using a third pole, the inner does not sag. The reason that it's all white is because it's undyed which is better for the environment.
Next spring, when some Decathlon tents make their way to Canada at the same time, it would be nice to see them come out with a four-season tent for those who like winter camping at -30c degrees and 30cm snowfall.
i will remove the inner, this tent is perfect to be a tarp/tent
I really wanted Decathlon to release a tent that would be better than my Naturehike Tagar 2, but I'll stick to the chinese brand for a while now. I'm still looking for a 2 person tent that would be lighter or smaller packed, cause with bikepacking my space is really limited. So far found nothing without having to spend $400 and getting a Durston.
Compared to the other tent Decathlon sell , the Forclaz MT 900, this one is pretty bad and also very expensive for what it is. For less money you can get a tent that will actually resist some wind and have some space inside like the chinese Naturehike Mongar. Heck...i would even choose the basic Quechua MH 100 over this.
This tent is not yet available in my country, Canada. I've used your videos to inform all my decathlon purchases from the mh500 20l to the mh100 2 person tent. Thank you for this review, it seems the decathlon trekking tent all suffer from the head sagging issue. Have you guys tried the lanshan 2 series of trekking tents? These are also quite affordable and look to be better in design. For the footprint you can use the plastic sheeting that people use to cover their windows as a good groundsheet, much lighter too. Thanks again for the great video!
Terrible design and super heavy.
I saw this last year and then it disappeared from Decathlons website. 1.3kg is not bad for a 2 person backpacking tent but I don't know how well it would stand up to wind.
Great review I also noticed that in decathlon website it mentions that the tent is not made to be under direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time..
The color might be fine for underwear etc but for tent it will attract bugs.
¿Donde la puedo adquirir?
Everything's ok but this color. Dirt and bugs are one thing, but sleeping during the day or sleeping in the morning?
Qui part aujourd’hui en randos de surcroît en bivouac sans bâtons . J’ai marché effectivement des années sans bâtons pensant stupidement, que c’était pour les anciens … grave erreur c’est très important d’avoir deux bâtons . Meme obligatoire de randonnée avec . Donc pour le montage de cette tente , on se doit de les avoir
When I was younger nearly all tents were this colour and the only negative was that it was too light too early in the morning.
All decathlon tents are trash. Get naturehike instead
