G'day Rog,

Thanks for your enquiry. Both the Exped Megamat 10 LXW and Duo will fit into the Speedy 2 Pop Up Tent. The length of the mats are just a couple of centimetres short of the total length of the sleeping area which is 2m, so it will be a bit tight but it does fit. The LXW is 77cm in width so you'll have plenty of space inside the tent. The Duo is 130cm in width and will take up most of the floor space. I hope this helps.  

We need to come back and correct ourselves here sorry, the curved ends of the Speedy 2 actually make the fitting of large mats like this difficult. The Speedy 2 is more akin to the dimensions of a hiking tent and will fit a couple of hiking mats or a medium sized camping mat.

G'day Liz,

The Speedy 2 Pop Up tent weighs 3kg, however, it won't be suitable to take hiking as it packs into a large 100cm diameter flat disk. You'd be better off maybe carrying just a lightweight fly or similar as an emergency shelter. 

G'day Alzina,

Yes - the EPE Speedy's have a waterproof rating of 3000m on the fly and 2000m for the floor. Laine :)

G'day Allison,

The Explore Planet Earth Speedy 2 Pop Up Tent has a diameter of about 75cm when packed away. I'd be a little nervous about squeezing it into an oval shape, if you snap one of the poles, then you mind find yourself up the creek when you arrive without a working tent. As for the ease of pack up. Very few people do it that easily on their first attempt, it does take a little practice but once you get the hang of it, it packs down real easy. 

G'day John,

We recommend both, they're an equally fantastic tent. Their only major difference is the manufacturer and some features of the tents (eg. door direction).

Yeah, good feedback, thanks, Tom. The curved edges of the pop-up tents to impede on the internal space. We always recommend treating the two-person as a 1, the three-person as a two and the four-person as a three to make sure you have good sleeping space.
