A one person tent capacity means enough room for one person to sleep in. No gear, no elbow room.

This is an important observation to make, if you are looking for a tent for one person.

If you are a minimalist, looking to carry the minimal weight possible, and are willing to give up comfort in order to go light, this category is for you. In this case, consider buying a tent that has a vestibule, so you can store your gear and cook in if the weather conditions are bad.

If you are willing to carry a little extra weight in order to be more comfortable, check out our reviews for the 2 person tent category.
