I've always said the 200 is for 1 person and the 300 is a cosy 2 person tent, I hike and do most of my camping in Scotland and you definitely don't want to be leaving your stuff out in the vestibule, if it will even fit. These tents are pretty good, had one last for about 3 years granted I did re proof the tent about 20 times but that's what happens if you go camping and a storm rolls in which is quite often in Scotland.
This is an old video but thought I'd comment as I bought a 200 recently. Even in 2023 the 200 is often still regarded as a highly recommended, " Hardcore" wild camping tent. That can be used British 4 seasons (providing its not being used in super heavy, snow). Its certainly stood the test of time and is a fantastic, durable, light tent. However, it's drawback is the length of it in combination to the aggressive slants of the inner walls. If you're around the 6 foot mark. The inner wall at the head end will literally be about an inch above your nose. If you're around 6 foot 2. You'll likely have the top of your head touching the inner wall, and nose. This can be negated slightly if you're using a bivvy on your sleeping bag, allowing your feet to press into the wall at the foot end. It's a real shame if you're around 6 foot 2, that you're unable to use the full length of the tent due to how aggressive the inner wall slants are. Overall, the 200 is definitely built for the " Average" height person and is undoubtedly only suitable for one person. Width wise its great, and can easily accommodate a broad person with a 80l back pack.
@Cuthbert Bracegirdle They can be compacted down in their bags to about 3 - 3.5 litres depending on what size you go for. The bag for the tent comes with compression straps to pack it away as small as you can get it, just don't leave the poles in the bag they will bend, and I'd remove the pegs aswell because they could puncture the tent when using the compression straps.
This is obviously an overview from a seller. The Vango Banshee is a tent that doesn't weight a lot but...its poles might snap after a few times pitching it. So, I would recommend everyone to watch more REAL reviews. Ty
I know this is a old video. However the Robens Starlight, for the same money or less is far higher quality.. Vango excel in semi geodesic and fully geodesic at a budget.. The Nemesis and Hydra rock., with a few mods... Robens offer better ventilation solutions and inner tent quality... Still have no idea What Vango F10 is all about.. Apart from more money for the same product ??? Example Mirage pro.. F10 MTN.. Basically the same tent ????
bigearedmouse17 basically yes mate that's the best way too judge it a have the 300 for my self 6'4 my seven years old and Ower dog plenty of room but we also bought the gear store tarp for the side of the banshee store the bergen and kit also ideal for cooking when it's pishing down.
This was filmed in 2016 and all specs were correct at the time of filming. "Protex 70D 5,000mm HH Polyester Flysheet - highly waterproof and durable fabric exclusive to Vango"
You guys charge way to much for your products. You need to be much more competitive as this would boost sales. I clicked on the link in the description and you (Price on 22/3/16) charge £150 for the Banshee 300! Its So much cheaper at Go Outdoors and Cotswold!
+Dyfan Barlow You can afford to sell for less when buying in huge bulk like GO-Outdoors do, personally I'm fine spending the extra few quid to support smaller businesses.

Brilliant video . Exactly what I needed to see, gonna go for the 300 myself over the 200
bought the banshee pro 200 and 300. great tents. worth the weight when it is is raining and windy.
Can we see how big it is when all packed up! That’s kind of a big deal

These are still about the best tents for the money. Also think about the Robens Starlight 1 & 2

Обожаю такого типа палатки. Лёгкие, легко устанавливаются более теплые на мой взгляд.
hi, i am looking at getting the banshee 300, but i am 5 foot 8 (age 15) and i was wondering how much leg room is there so i can grow into it?
+JurassicGamer Vango states the inner tent is 228 cm long, which equates to over 7 ft. So there is plenty of leg room.
+Penrose Outdoors it just didn't look that long in your video when you got in it that's all. thanks :)
JurassicGamer hey, probably wouldn’t recommend it, get a Berghaus peak 3.3
Looking at this to replace a poxy one man I flattened in a drunken state lol it wasn't mine

they've gotten rid of the guy lines at the foot end?!
It looks like it yeah, I think it will be one of those Velcro props instead
marmot tungsten 2p best
SO, The 2man is a 1man and the 3man is a 2man ?

@@Dusty357 I never understand tent makers sizing system. I've never owned a two-man tent that was realistically for two people.
But the Vango website states the flysheet is 3000HH not 5000 like you say.
This was filmed in 2016 and all specs were correct at the time of filming. "Protex 70D 5,000mm HH Polyester Flysheet - highly waterproof and durable fabric exclusive to Vango"
decatlon quick hiker 2 is much comfy .....and better in my opinion....what if rain catch you? you stays there like in coffin?
Where can I go to see this tent rolled up and put away in a pack?
Alps Lynx 1. & 2
It looks tiny.
how about protection against flies and such things ? i'm going to scotland and they've got the midgets, so i wanna be save :)
thx!
schmonk aw good luck mate, just finished my dofe silver and the midgets were awful on arran
oh shit :D what's dofe silver?
Duke of Edinburgh. Its an award thing
schmonk m
Long story short, banshee 200 = 1 man banshee 300 = 2 man
Hi, is this a 4 season tent or a 3 seasson tent???
I would say an English 4 season tent as in it's not designed to cope with heavy snow.
Im 6ft 8inch what tent would you recommend for me
Maybe something like the Vango Scafell 200. www.threezero.co.uk/p/19590/Vango-Scafell-200
CIRCUS ?
Where's the tent? It's about a third mesh! You'll freeze your nuts off in that. (Or drown in condensation if you seal it up to keep the cold air out).
Review?More like overview from a seller...
I've seen bigger coffins.
That pass for wit in Snideland?
I've got one and its massive inside
@@grahamhgt6468 A mate of mine sold his cos it was so small. What height is it, internally?
Nice tents but with van go and some tents shit poles
