Zpacks Plex Solo Classic Tent - is designed for ultralight backpacking and thru-hiking, exemplifies Zpacks' dedication to quality and innovation. It achieves a remarkable balance of strength and minimal weight through its use of Dyneema Composite Fabric (DCF).

Inside, the tent offers a well-designed living space for one person, featuring a single-door setup for convenience. Notably, it offers versatility with options for both freestanding and non-freestanding versions. The freestanding variant incorporates lightweight trekking pole supports, while the non-freestanding version relies on stakes for setup, catering to individual preferences.

Addressing the condensation issue often faced by single-wall tents, the Plex Solo Tent incorporates strategic vents and an airflow-friendly design for a comfortable, moisture-free interior.

Setup is adaptable, allowing the use of a single trekking pole adjusted to around 132 cm or a Carbon tent pole from Zpacks if trekking poles aren't available. Stakes are not included with the tent and you can buy it separately tent stakes.

The Plex Solo Tent boasts a solid, sewn-in 20 cm tall bathtub floor. This floor is 97 cm wide at the center and tapers to 71 cm at the head and foot, providing ample room to stretch out comfortably. However, taller hikers can create even more head and foot room by propping up the side guylines with Trekking Pole Cups.

The tent's storm doors operate independently, accommodating changing weather conditions. They securely close with custom-made metal hooks, providing protection from rain and cold winds. The screen door, featuring a rainbow zipper, offers easy access and neatly drops inward when not in use.

The canopy extends over the bathtub floor and screen doors, offering rain protection without sacrificing ventilation. Elastic cords are thoughtfully included to enhance rain protection when a door is open. Additionally, a convenient mesh pocket near the door provides easy access to essential items.

One of the advantages of this tent is its compact packed size. It measures a mere 12.7 cm by 28 cm, making it compatible with smaller backpacks and daypacks. The small packed size is a significant benefit for those who want to keep their overall gear volume to a minimum.

With its lightweight construction, durability, and compact packed size, the Plex Solo Tent is an excellent choice for weight-conscious backpackers, fitting comfortably in smaller backpacks and daypacks. Its design ensures stability even in windy conditions, and its adaptability caters to a wide range of preferences.


 
MATERIAL:
.55 oz/sqyd (blue, olive, white) or .75 oz/sqyd (spruce green) Standard Dyneema® Composite Fabric 

Dyneema® Composite Fabric has several advantages over other materials:

  • High strength to weight ratio – the material can handle high wind force and does not tear easily.
  • Chemical free, PFC free
  • Waterproof – there is no DWR or coating to worry about wearing out. The material will not absorb significant water that will add water weight to your pack
  • Stretch-free – the tent will stay taut all night. Nylon material by comparison can stretch and sag, especially if it gets wet.
  • Taped seams – our seams are sewn for strength then taped water tight. The tie outs have bonded reinforcements for high strength. No seam sealing will be necessary!
  • Easily repairable – Any damage can easily be fixed in the field with our Dyneema® Composite Fabric Repair Tape.
  • This tent is semi-transparent. In bright sunlight, a fuzzy silhouette of a person sitting inside the tent would be visible, but you cannot see any details. It has a suitable amount of privacy for changing clothes.
  • In lower light (such as in the evening or at night), you cannot see through at all. Another nice thing about this material is that you can see the outlines of trees and your surroundings for a more immersed outdoor experience.


TOTAL WEIGHT:
413 g | 14.6 oz includes guy lines, sewn in linelocs, taped seams. 

A piece of repair tape and two spare zipper sliders are included with each tent. Your choice of canopy material will change the total weight.

Our dogs hurt their mouths chewing these bones
Color: Purple & Blue
I don't do a lot of reviews because I realize many are objective opinions. However, in this case I felt it was necessary to warn others. Our dogs are aggressive chewers. Their last rubber bones (not these) which we've purchased before, and recently purchased again, were destroyed quickly. Chunks of rubber came off the ends. Since those didn't hold up like they used to, I found these harder bones hoping they would last longer. They were able to gnaw into the hard plastic within a few minutes. This created sharp edges that cut their mouths. When I saw a bit of blood on the bones, I took them away from the dogs and threw them away. I wondered why they quit chewing on them after being so excited at first. Also, these are hard enough to damage a tooth.

Pups have shown zero interest in these toys….
Color: Purple & Blue
I would agree that these are indestructible being neither of my dogs have shown any interest in these at all. At this rate they should last forever…

Durable but losses interest
Color: Purple & Blue
My dog is an aggressive chewer. She was interested in this toy while it was new, but soon after lost interest. Good news is although it took a beating it did not break or splinter. If soppy toys are disposable in your house, give it a try.

Great for Excessive Chewers and Eaters
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
I decided to get the Kong Extreme toy for my then 9-year-old dog in Sept. 2010, after her older sister passed away a few days before. I figured we both could have used the distraction. I learned ages ago that most toys couldn't hold up against my two Australian Cattle Dogs, since they didn't just happily gnaw on things, they'd try to eat it. In fact, they tried to eat a number of things, from fabrics to meticulously eating the lining off tennis balls and soft balls. Nothing was safe, especially against the youngest, who has some OCD issues. I'd be lucky to see a tough toy last a day, much less a month. Like the rest, I didn't think this toy would stand a chance, but it's still holding up well almost a year later. My dog isn't a strong chewer, like a doberman or pit, but very meticulous. She and her sister would go at something for hours if you let them, until nothing was left. Because of this, I also need to choose soft toys, rather than something hard, because she'll wear her teeth down if you let her. Fortunately, this manages to stand up to her obsessive chewing, but it also doesn't wear the teeth down, which I love. I'm thinking of getting a new one, even though the current could probably last another few months. I'm just now seeing some wear along the seams, despite her every effort to conquer and destroy it. I'm mainly getting it just to be on the safe side, so that I don't risk it falling apart while I'm not watching her, and just for the sake of cleanliness. These are extremely durable and easy to clean. They do have a strong odor when you first open them up, but it fades relatively quickly. I let ours soak it in hot/vinegar water for a while, then rinsed it well and left it out in the sun for a few hours. Seemed to help a little. They can also be loud when dogs chew on them, which can be annoying if you're trying to watch TV, but I find it well worth it, even if my partner doesn't agree during football time. I love the fact that these toys bounce unpredictably, although I would be careful around furniture if you plan to bounce it off the floor or toss it. I got into the habit of using it down our long hallway, referring to it as Dog Bowling, which she loves. She also didn't need food as incentive to get into it (just me playing with it and making it out to be a big deal), which is great, since that just means less cleaning and less weight gain in my book, although I do put treats in it now and then, if my partner and I are leaving the house and plan to be gone awhile. My dog's around around 30 lbs. and is medium sized, but has had no trouble tackling the larger-sized version, which was the only size available through Amazon at the time. I may get the medium-sized toy soon, just because she's reaching 10 and she'll go at it for ages. This is a great toy for obsessive chewers in particular, and I highly recommend it to dog lovers. I just wish we'd found out about them sooner! I'm also happy to report that she has stopped chewing on random things), like blankets and clothing, as much as she used to. If she does start up, it's because she can't find her Kong. I may also get the bone version and will review on that if I do.

Great buy
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Definitely recommend. My new rescue has chewed though I can’t even tell you how many “indestructible” toys in under 10 minutes. Not this! We’ve had it a few days and she loves it. Hasn’t chewed through it at all and it literally keeps her busy for an hour at the minimum. Would buy again. Great quality for the price and made to last. Perfect for aggressive chewers.
