Hilleberg Nallo or Jannu

[paborden]

Just curious if anyone has experience with the pros / cons of the Nallo vs. Jannu. With the Jannu, I pretty much know what to expect, but I've got absolutely no experience with tunnel tents like the Nallo...

I've spent several nights in the Nallo 2 GT, and have been inside the other Nallo's, and the Jannu. I currently own an Allak.

 

Nallo pros:

-lighter than the Jannu

-the GT fly gives you a huge vestibule if you want it

-the ventilation system is a little more versatile...with screened foot vent and the door/fly vent you can really adjust the ventilation level to suit your needs summer-winter

Nallo cons:

-not quite as roomy; length is the biggest thing for me. At 6'2", the Nallo's are just a little bit short for me (87" I think) and the foot of my bag touches the end wall.

-not free standing, which may or may not limit you based on what you want to do with it. I personally like a free standing tent (actually I'd like a Nallo 2 to go along with my Allak, but $$$$$).

 

Jannu pros:

-stable, freestanding, and bulletproof; very wedge shaped and would buck the jet stream

-a little more room and I believe it's about 4 in. longer

Jannu cons:

-noticeably heavier, whether this matters to you is personal of course

-the ventilation system is great, but not as versatile...it is a "warmer" tent

-because it is more wedge shaped, the vestibule space isn't quite as useable (think wall angle)--it's a trade off.

 

Both are easy to set up and are awesome tents.

If you have any more specific questions I may be able to answer them.
