Why We Like The Black Diamond Eldorado Tent
Super light, super strong, and built with waterproof breathable Todd-Tex fabric, Black Diamond Eldorado is a two-person, single-wall shelter designed for mountaineers and climbers. Able to be pitched on ledges that are no larger than a couch, this is the ideal tent to have at altitude. Its weight is relatively light given its burly construction, yet it rolls up small enough to fit into the side pocket of many internal-frame packs.

Perfect tent for serious protection from the elements
This tent met every expectation for my camp in the mountains of Colorado for nearly 2 weeks. Temperatures reached single digits at night, but I stayed relatively warm compared to other folks who spent the same amount of money on other brands. I would recommend this tent for anyone who wants maximum thermal protection at a great price

Easy set up
Very quick and easy tent set up. Seam sealing was moderately difficult.

Best 4 season tent.
Absolutely the best single wall 4 season tent! I have yet to have any condensation on the walls even with two people, snow covered gear after a long exposed trek! I do own three other 4 season tents and this one is by far superior. I have only used this tent in an alpine environment. It handles wind so well, I sleep so much better in here without a fly flap flapping. This tent is so quite in the wind. The 3 zips on the door allow good high low ventilation. And the top vents honestly seem enough airflow in an alpine environment. Also because of the shape snow loading isn’t really a problem. Iv also found it keeps you quite a bit warmer then most tents as well. I would not use this tent in the summer. This is an above tree line tent for light and fast missions where you need excellent cozy protection. My only complaint is I wish they made it 2-4 inches longer. I’m 6.4 and with an inflatable pad I do touch both sides. I am most comfortable solo in this tent at a diagonal.

Bomber tent
Absolutely bomber is extremely high winds. I use it when I am in the mountain solo because it provides ample space for one person (it's long which is great) and a whole bunch of gear

One of the best tents ever made
I've used this tent for years and it has never let me down. High winds, heavy rains, desert sand sand storms. These tents are simply one of the most bomber tents around.

Love the shape and layout of the tent! Not the lightest on the market but preforms extremely well.

Initial impressions
Eldorado Tent arrived as expected in October 2022. Still waiting on winter conditions in White Mountain area of New Hampshire, so have yet to test it in real conditions, but after setting it up in the house I can confirm it feels sturdy and warm, appears to have reasonable ventilation, and is spacious for one person. For two people, it will not fit gear - so the optional vestibule will be a must for inclement weather. The interior Todd Tex material is interesting - unlike any tent I've ever owned. If you have ever felt the inside of the cheap "Frog Togg" rain jackets, that is what it feels like - except much burlier. I would be concerned about durability, but it the outer shell material feels bomber and the guyline attachment points should help to shed wind in bad weather. In short, I'm pleased and have high expectations - and looking forward to a bomber tent to test in the alpine!

So far so good
Owned a bombshelter before this, wanted to shave weight and still have the same durability. Seems to hold up just as good to fierce alpine conditions as its larger brother.

Life saver
I woke up floating in a river in this tent in 30 degree weather. Managed to get my dry suit on and pack my sleeping bag without spilling and wade to the kayak. She’s been through a lot but she’s still water tight thankfully. A go to tent for whatever the occasion.

Delamination of floor
I bought this tent, after 3 years of little use and perfect storage the floor has delaminated. Black diamond has refused to replace it, apparent it's already had its lifetime.
