OneTigris Scaena Backpacking Tent - First Look at the Cosmitto Replacement - Preview
What it is :
My friends, what i have here is the Scaena (sky-n-ah) tent from OneTigris; remember the Cosmitto tent that I reviewed previously? If not you should check out my videos on that tent as it was a very interesting product; it had a lot going for it but unfortunately the design of the tent meant that it wasn’t waterproof.
After the testing done on my channel, the company recommended that the Cosmitto be only used in light rain.
How useful is a tent that can’t weather any sort of weather? Not useful at all.
Anyways, after my testing videos and review went up for the Cosmitto tent, OneTigris told me that they were working on a new version of this tent, one that addressed all of the issues that I had and to make a long story short, here we go!
This is the Scaena tent which is essentially the new and improved Cosmitto tent. While it hasn’t replaced the Cosmitto as it is still for sale for some reason, based on what OneTigris has told me, it is the new and improved Cosmitto tent.

Features :
This is a 3 season tent,
2 doors
2 vestibules
Angled poles - 120 degrees - this provides campers with a bigger, more open tent space. Also, it gives the users a better view from the inside of the tent as well as better ventilation.
Fly can be set up with the floor to make a sort of quick setup shelter when the inner tent isn’t required or needed.
Inside Flaps can be used to block wind - this can be incredibly handy in the summer months in certain situations. For an example, lets say that you are at the beach or maybe you are camping in the mountains and you have wind coming in one way, you can setup the tent with the flaps towards the wind so you can control the amount of air flow into the tent while having the benefits of mesh on the other side. It’s a really smart design
Impressions :
Quality and Construction :
Setup :
Design :
Large two person tent
It is slightly heavy for a 2 person tent but it is feature rich
Well thought out stake out points - points on the sides for additional airflow
Cosmitto Tent :
Going back to the Cosmitto tent for a moment, OneTigris really does deserve a round of applause for the way that they handled all of the issues concerning that tent. As a summary, they released the Cosmitto tent, through testing problems were revealed and the company owned up to the issues and made some changes on their web site and also issued a warning - the tent is designed only for good conditions with nothing more than light rain. While they didn’t pull the tent from the market they did make those changes which can be seen on their site to this day.
From Here :
This is a preview of the Scaena tent and from here it is going into testing - rain testing is coming up with a Test Night Video and in also, I will have a video dedicated to the setup process of this tent which will show you how to do both setups that this tent is capable of.
I will be filming adventures with this tent and ultimately my review will go up.

I’m liking this tent! Thanks Luke. It is great to have you to test all these products so I don’t have to waste my $ on crap. I think I’m going to order 1. 👍👍👍
WOW!! That was a GREAT review! Thank you Luke for all time and energy you put into your videos! You make it so...much easier for people to make good choices in there purchases! 🥰
HE DOESNT EVEN GET IN THE TENT
Seems like a good tent, yet I like more of a cover over the doorway on any tent. Getting in and out in the rain should still be problematic for getting water in your tent. JMHO
i came to comment the same thing. still wouldn't buy it.
The answer to that might be to use a tarp/fly over that area. However, I will admit that would sort of negates the concept of "throw this up quick to get out of the elements". I. too, would like a little bit more of a fly/vestibule arrangement, if for no other reason than a place to park your wet/muddy boots someplace than inside the tent itself.
@@taterhater7419 Me either, I think there's a pretty good reason most people don't do this design.
Yep agree and for all this storm testing how about when it's wind driven...and how is it for condensation breathability? That real world weather testing?
Even vestibules allow some venting, but the Scaena's side door is either all or nothing. I suspect condensation and lack of airflow will be bigger problems than waterproofness.
Great video and you have sold me on this tent. For those still worried - One quick and cheap fix for that "exposed" side would be to run some long'ish strip magnets to close that opening even tighter. Put one on the outside and one on the inside and let the magnet do its magic to seal out the elements even further. Once done camping - remove the magnets before packing it away.
But heck, after seeing this - you probably won't even have to do so.
Either way - I love your content sir and I am on my way to purchase one of these tents! 😀
Hands down the best reviewer on any gear, sir. Keep up the good work.
I'm watching this as we actually have storms moving through here in north Texas! It adds to the experience of this episode!
That's a heck'n test night! I do wonder about sideways rain and snow load. Thanks for all you do; it is really appreciated.
I'm impressed with your honesty your integrity to tell the truth very rare nowadays thank you
Great small tent for hiking, etc. I’m impressed at the test. Good job Onetigris!
I purchased this tent based off of your review and this testing. Looking forward to using it this weekend. Thanks!
I just love your videos . Wish I was born into a family like yours. All the best .
It looks like another OneTigris product will be added to my gear collection...love their products.
I bought it based on your previous reviews and was just as impressed. This tent is simply awesome.
Honesty & candor....that's why I come back week after week, Luke. Keep em coming bro!
I thought it might leak in the middle but not surprised that it didn't . My old tent had an inner fly on the door and back wall and it never leaked in all the storms that I had it in. With an inner fly it's all about how well you design it and how well it's made
My old Eureka Timberline has an internal fly. I've had that thing out into some serious weather. It's never leaked a bit. Yes, there is a bit of an overhang on the external fly, but that doesn't stop a driving rain. I can say it's wonderful to be able to unzip that window a little and look out when the rain is coming down.
Lets bring it to carwash just to make sure its water proof 😊great content luke 🙂
LoL Awesome Idea
Outstanding review. I’m extremely happy with my Scaena tent.
Cool that it did not leak way to go OneTigris! Thank you for your time testing. I do not have this tent but I do have some of their gear and I really like it! Thank you once again and I will be waiting and watching for your next videos.
I really expected the tent to leak. I am very impressed that it didn't, especially with the internal fly. Great job One Tigris!
Amazing! This tent is the real deal! Looking forward to your next round of vigorous testing! Thanks @TheOutdoorGearReview !
I have to admit I thought it was going to leak. I'm glad to see somebody's making a water tight tent. I shouldn't have to say this but it's about time huh.
Got one last week it is amazing, it cheap, easy to put up and take down. I was surprised at how cheap it is and I am very happy. Looking at their other stuff for the summer to build a full set-up. ❤️👏
How much it’s?
About $250 on Amazon right now…. With features of a $400+ tent so that’s not bad.
Amazed by the tent. Its something else.
That’s an impressive result Luke! Looking forward to your final review & assessment.👏👏
May ? I say I think , you have the right attitude to rain and storms .Enjoy them .
Thanks for all the great content and education you provide!
Awesome man. Thanks👍
I will say it again... The only trustworthy chanel on the web.
Ahh gotta admit wow. I do love a tarp combo setup anyway, but still, wouldn't it be even better with an outside fly, and better again with an awning. Lotta wind driven horizontal rain here, if it can handle that I'm sold. Cheers Duke.
Wow I’m impressed. Good job Luke.
Lets do a real wind and water proof tent review. Take it out onto an open hilltop during a storm. Not surrounded by trees that break the wind. If it doesn't leak in the open then it won't leak in a sheltered bush.
Multiple rain tests needs done. Ive had tents go through rain then start leaking. Sometimes it's the floor other times it's been the rain fly.
I usually grab a Ozark Trail Walmart special 3 man tent for $27, than buy a $10 roll of frost king clear plastic and cover the tent with that because the tent alone will leak a little at the seams,I'll spray scotch guard on the seams, cover it and I left it up for 3 years without any leakage at all for $ less than $40. And that's in Connecticut with lots of snow storms,hail,rain,the clear plastic did eventually leak a little from bird talons from birds landing on it.but it beats the hell out of spending $300-$500 bucks any day.
I did as you asked. I paused at 2:28.
My original comment was that it's a $250 tent. For that price, I shouldn't have to worry about staying dry. However, the only way I could honestly know it would stay dry. Is to cover it with my DD 4x4 tarp. Yes I said the DD 4x4. Best tarp DD has ever came out with
Hi Luke I'm seriously looking to purchase a new tent and I've been watching this channel for a while this episode 2 of this tent is amazing 👏 thank you so much for your honesty I can't wait to see you finish this review on this tent if pass with flying colors this one will definitely be at the top of the list. God bless! and strength and honor to you and your family JC Tree of Life Forestry Services
WOW! Just WOW! I’m shocked as well! Once again, thanks for an awesome, thorough review!
i want to get this tent !! so damn impressed :) thank you for doing this review and the testing :)
Great review & video my friend hope your weekend is going well
6:34..."Look at the water sheeting off of this tent." Yessir, that is definitely a SHEETLOAD of rain !!!
Greetings from Sierra Vista Arizona! You sure get a lot of thunderstorms in N Carolina! LOL we get them in monsoon season....... hopefully.
I, too, was SURE it was going to leak! I'm pleasantly surprised! I was hoping like crazy it would stay dry, but that was some serious rain! I was doubtful! Good job, One Tigris! I will soon be a customer of some of their products now! First up is will be the camping chair! Nice to see a company keep things affordable, yet reliable and high quality!
Dude I am so glad this tent is doing well
always nice to see a successful review
Luke, fantastic presentation 👌and you may have persuaded me to buy one. I possibly would use a tarp over the front such as on OEX expedition tarp, Robens tarp merely to give an added level of protection from heavy horizontal rain fall. Stay safe atb Taff 🤠👊
great review on that tent , and now that it actually got such a good review from you the price of said tent has just went higher LOL. All joking aside you did an excellent job on your review. Thank you . Much respect.
Great review Luke, thanks for sharing
I'm not surprised it held up well. I have a 6-man Coleman Flatwoods dome with a very similar front-face design, just bigger, & it laughs at sheets of rain; as far as the "internal fly"-behind-the-windows -thing goes, it's the same, & I've never had an issue.
I thought it would leak after the first test night but it didn't so I knew it wouldn't after the second. Thanks Luke I know the tent I want now. One tigress awesome stuff.
Agree with some of the comments. It is an impressive tent for sure which is why it's worth a third test. A complete muppet set up on an exposed hill with the entrance facing into the wind in a storm. If it passes that, I think you should get together with OneTigris and actually promote it!! There's a first for everything and I'm a believer in rewarding good work. BTW I love listening to your outro on a big speaker. So cool! Keep up the good work Luke! Love to Suzi!
Awesome testing Luke. Congratulations OneTigris! You've clearly hit this one right out of the park for rain resistance!
"One of those rare instances where I was wrong" Suzie laughing hysterically in the background
Hahaha, Ive been wrong before..........................................once. Cheers Duke.
Fantastic test! However, I do think OneTigris should offer a rainfly that gives a vestibule at both entrances - cause I'm not really sure of the benefit of that open entrance. Luke, you are awesome - thanks again
I am impressed myself, I may have to add this to my one tigris collection 👍🏻
I Agree.... I LOVE Storms !!!
Hopefully One Tigris is rewarded. This one is officially on my radar.
Amazing i love rainy days
Definitely wasn't sure it would hold up in that amount of rain.But seems like a quality tent after all. Thanks for the video 📹.
I've been addicted to the look of the tent been really debating on getting one
Outstanding review keep them coming. Be well my friend.
This tent become legendary on this channel. Nice job buddy.
You live in the wettest area I know, every test is rain! Lol. Love the reveiws and tips
Putting my order in. Thx for awesome reviews.
That is impressive. That is awesome of you to test the tent too it's limits. I guess the proof is in the pudding.
When I go camping, I always bring extra tarps. One of my tents is the Alaskan Guide from Cabela's, it does NOT leak at all. But I still bring tarps just in case. So no matter what tent you have, don't just rely on it solely.
Same Here, I always put a tarp up over my tent if there is even the slightest chance of of bad weather, I also like having a place to sit and relax that is covered even if only from the sun.
How do you like the Alaskan Guide?
@@ashslaughter1457 best tent that I have owned
Thanks Luke, I thought it would leak, nice surprise it preformed well. .⛺️
Looks like a Great Tent in the rain🌧️🌧️🌧️☔☔
Nice, quite bombproof in heavy downpours looks like.
Wow what a fantastic tent. I'd be interested to see how it handled with that rain combined with strong winds. But other than that amazing. Great job OneTigris!
Great video review
One Tigris has some good products on the market and my experience has been positive. This looks like another product that is well suitable for 3 season outings. You do some of the best reviews on TH-cam... Thanks... 👍🏻
I am amazed that the design handled so much splashback. Where did the water that washed down over the lower part of the screen door go? We still don't have experience with swirling rain or rain that drives at the door system.
Thank you for sharing your research
Awesome Review Brother Luke! I will be getting one of these ASAP. Thanks for doing the test. Be Safe on the Trails.
I thought for sure that it would leak, and I'm surprised that it didn't.
I do however wish tent makers would design their fly so it will cover the windows and yet you can still unzip from the inside in order to let cross ventilation through. Here in the south it can get brutal closed up in a tent during a summer rain storm without the cross ventilation.
The storm you mentioned rolled through Nashville Friday night so I know exactly what you were explaining. Knowing this tent held up to that storm, impressive is a weak description to define it.
Wow it was a great review so glad it proved its worthiness
I’m looking for a good tent that doesn’t leak and this seems great and passed the rain test…. Love your channel ❤️ Thanks
Nice luke if i didn't have a great tent already I would get this for sure... ( currently have Naturehike peak 2, you weren't really positive about the winter ediiton but it's absolutely amazing in my climate and completely waterproof)
Okay, it didn't leak. The price point is good, and it packs to a reasonably small package. I'm going to have to consider it for my adventures flying into the northern lake country on my fishing and outdoors camping trips. Cheers from Winnipeg.
Another great review Luke, thanks. I would definitely use a tarp over the front of the tent during extreme weather if needed. But I too am impressed.
Unbelievable design to go throughout that and not leak. May be you should push it beyond its limits now be unconventional itnyour tests so hit it with a powerful hose from all angels go out if your way to make it leak apart from chucking a bucket of water while inside it lol then there will be no doubt of it capabilities. Cracking review on this tent Luke 👊
I'm very shocked also. Thanks for the second torture test. I thought for sure it would leak.
Oh yea. Purchasing the Scana. Thanks to your expertise it was an ease.
A rain gauge set up beside the tent during a test night would be a nice addition. We do take your word for how much rain falls during these tests, but with a gauge there's no guessing.
That’s great to see an affordable tent that keeps you out of the weather. And yes I also thought it would leak….
A new tent is like a new coat --- nice tight seams, windproof, won't leak. BUT: what about when it has been put up and down 5 - 6, a dozen times. Will it still be leakproof.
Luke, I know you have some 'favorite' tents that you use a lot. SO, until I see this being used a little and still not leaking will I be convinced. Those seams pull lose, those threads start to unravel a little --- will it still be dry inside? The world is depending on you!
Impressive tent Im sold I believe on this tent. 🇺🇸👍
Looking forward to more.
Great job as always, Luke. These reviews are one of the many reasons why your channel is amazing. I can't wait to see the work you did on your shed!!
Thank you, as always such good content
That is impressive. I think you should test it again in the rain but next test you stay in it see if there is a difference between no one in it or someone in it. But so far it is performing nicely. Great reviews.
Thanks for the review.
Great to have gear you can count on.
If your impressed, I’m impressed…. Must admit I thought you were going to find some traces of the rain getting in but no, it has got to already be one of the leaders in its field….
One Tigris does make some good products. Even though I think that it would leak if there was wind driven rain blowing directly at the front, I am still impressed at how well this tent performed.
Thank you.
Great job bro I think I found my very first tent for my solo life in the bush!!!!
Found my first bush in a tent!!🤣😂😅
Very impressed with you and the tent brother 💪&♥️
I wasn't surprised about this tent, I knew I had a feeling it was going to past the test Luke
Excellent video. Rarely see properly heavy rain in reviews. You should stick a rain gauge in your testing equipment.
