Note – this isn’t really a review as such – this is more a spec comparison, so you can see the key differences between the two tents.

OEX Lightweight Phoxx 2 II Tent for 2 People with Porch

There’s so much information available online when we’re shopping now, that it’s easy to find lots of detail about products like OEX Phoxx 2 Tent. This is of course really helpful, but there’s almost too much information available, so it’s important to know exactly what you’re looking for.

Overview

That got us thinking though, that we’re looking at every possible item from OEX so it would be good to narrow our search down even further and only look at OEX branded products within the 1 – 2 Person Tents category. The cost of OEX 1 – 2 Person Tents That’s why we’ve pulled together this list of key factors for OEX Phoxx 2 Tent below, to help you choose if it’s the right product for you and your budget. Condensation didn't prove to be much of a problem although there was a slight sheen on the inner tent in the morning and the functionality of a door on each side of the tent made a huge difference as you're able to move in and out with less bother and create a good current of air to ventilate the tent. We also found that, for a tunnel tent, there was more than adequate head room in the tent which gave it a spacious feeling, which would be needed if two were sharing the tent. Pre-angled Endura Poles give sturdiness to inner tent Another factor that can be a great indication of product quality is the brand. Brands like OEX are of course extremely well known, especially for 1 – 2 Person Tents.

The OEX Phoxx 2 would have been in the running for 5 stars but the tent is snug for 2 adults and gear and, in our opinion, is better suited to a solo camper who would have masses of extra room for gear and dogs (optional!).

The extremely low profile of the OEX Phoxx 1 enables you to pitch the tent in some fairly exposed areas. I’ve had it up in 40mph+ winds and driving rain and it never failed. OEX state that the Phoxx 2 is a 4 season tent. We have trialled this during autumn and found it to be perfectly sufficient but have not used this yet in the depths of winter. For winter camping in Scotland, considering the variations in weather and temperature, we would look for something more sturdy like a canvas tent for the colder, snowier months. Our Final Verdict on the OEX PHOXX 2 V2 TENT: There are however some methods that you can use to determine a product’s quality without needing to physically have it. Sleeping in the OEX Phoxx was really good fun. This may be down to the fact that I didn't have to share the tent so there was oodles of room for a solo camper and I could spread all my gear out and still have room for the dogs. From a personal perspective, it would be a snug fit to share with another adult and have space for your gear. Plenty upright space in the OEX Phoxx 2We’re really pleased to have scored OEX Phoxx 2 Tent so highly, givimg it 9.7 out of 10, making it well above the average for all 1 – 2 Person Tents. Multiple trips in Dartmoor and Snowdonia National Park which are known for their windiness, as well as the South West Coast Path and the odd garden camp during the COVID-19 pandemic. We put the Phoxx 2 through our rigorous testing criteria to evaluate it's overall performance and functionality, design and construction, our own user experience and value for money and overall, the Phoxx 2 excelled across the board given the rain and windy conditions we pitched in, giving them a 4 out of 5 fireside rating.
