Harva Outdoors Lagunen Lagom vs Horntools Themis 140

The Harva Outdoors Lagunen Lagom and the Horntools Themis 140 are both hardshell tents in the same part of the market, which makes them a genuine head-to-head rather than a comparison across categories. Harva Outdoors and Horntools take noticeably different approaches to the same problem.

By the numbers, the Harva Outdoors Lagunen Lagom brings 67 kg, 3.28 m² of floor, 135 cm of headroom and sleeps 5. The Horntools Themis 140 counters with 70 kg, 2.97 m² of floor, 100 cm of headroom and sleeps 2.

On weight they are effectively level — 67 kg against 70 kg — so the roof load question resolves the same way for both. Inside, the Lagunen Lagom gives 3.28 m² of sleeping floor against 2.97 m², about 10 percent more, and it sleeps 5 to the Themis 140's 2. Headroom separates them further: 135 cm in the Lagunen Lagom against 100 cm, which is the difference between sitting up to dress and doing it lying down. Their list prices are within a few percent of each other, so price is unlikely to decide this one. Horntools also backs the Themis 140 for 5 years against 2.

They open differently: the Lagunen Lagom is a clamshell and the Themis 140 a pop-up. That is not cosmetic — it decides whether headroom is even across the tent or tapers towards one end, and how much of the roof the tent occupies when closed. The Lagunen Lagom uses 5.5 mm ABS shell over an aluminium honeycomb floor; the Themis 140 uses ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene). Canvas differs too: 280 g ripstop canvas sides and 420D ripstop polyester oxford roof; water columns 6500 mm (roof) / 3500 mm (sides), UV- and mould-resistant against cotton, linen, polyester with PU coating (water column 2000 mm).
