Eezi-Awn Fun vs Harva Outdoors Udden
The Eezi-Awn Fun and the Harva Outdoors Udden are both softshell tents in the same part of the market, which makes them a genuine head-to-head rather than a comparison across categories. Eezi-Awn and Harva Outdoors take noticeably different approaches to the same problem.
By the numbers, the Eezi-Awn Fun brings 50 kg, 130 cm of headroom and sleeps 2. The Harva Outdoors Udden counters with 50 kg, 3.36 m² of floor, 135 cm of headroom and sleeps 3.
The Udden lists about 14% lower than the Fun.
Canvas differs too: 260GSM double-stitched ripstop canvas on aluminium bows with reinforced PVC flysheet against 420D ripstop polyester oxford, UV- and mould-resistant, 3000 mm water column.
