Plex Solo Lite Tent

Loves their Plex Solo Lite after a while of use including a recent Catalina Island trip: super light, durable, easy to set up, with a bathtub floor they like.

“I love my ZPacks Plex solo lite tent I’ve used it for a while now and recently got back from a hiking trip on Catalina Island with it. It’s super light durable and I”

Loves their Plex Solo Lite (12.6 oz) in dry climates like the Sierra and Sawtooths with no condensation issues; if buying again would pick the new Plex Solo Pro non-Lite for the zipper door and stronger floor.

Their 12 oz Zpacks Plex Solo Lite is a DCF shelter with bug netting and a bathtub floor; not the roomiest but very light.

Owns both the Plex Solo Lite and an X-Mid Pro 1 and reaches for the Plex when weight is the priority; it packs smaller, the zipperless doors are one less thing to fail, and it feels roomier at the sides for keeping gear within reach.

Switched to the Plex Solo Lite for a few years to save a few ounces but is going back to the X-Mid: at about 6 ft tall they got tired of the lack of space and felt cramped in it.

Doesn't love trekking-pole tents but uses a Zpacks Plex Solo Lite in Dyneema when they want to go ultralight, valuing the weight savings; for trips where weight matters less they take a freestanding tent.

Their Plex Solo Lite is mosquito and fly proof: on the Colorado Trail thousands covered the outside and mesh while they stayed fully protected inside.

Has about 50 nights in their Plex Solo Lite and loves it; at 6'2" and 215 lb as a rotisserie sleeper it is snug but works.

Has the Plex Solo Lite at 5'10" with a 3-inch pad; most times they only use 6 stakes, adding shepherd hooks on the panel midpoints when it's stormy.

Has 20+ nights in a Plex Solo Lite (and 100+ in a Duplex) and never had an issue in all manner of conditions around the world.

After at least 50 nights in their Plex Solo Lite across a wide range of terrain the floor looks like new, and they've never had a floor hole.
