The lightest of the light, Zpacks' sub-12oz Plex Solo Lite is easily the lightest full-featured one-person tent in the world. Designed for adventurers who value weight but aren't willing to sacrifice performance or comfort, the Plex Solo is the ultimate shelter for weight-conscious hikers looking to redefine boundaries and push limits.

The Plex Solo Lite shares the same dimensions as Zpacks' standard Plex Solo Tent. It utilizes their proven 0.55 oz/sq yd Dyneema® Composite Fabric canopy combined with a .75 oz/sq yd DCF floor material, which is 25% lighter and packs down smaller relative to Zpacks' standard tent floors. The Plex Solo Lite comes preconfigured with bright yellow 1.3 mm Z-Line guy lines, which saves weight compared to the 2 mm guy lines on our standard tents.

Easily pitching with a single 52"/132 cm trekking pole or tent pole, the Plex Solo Lite is well-ventilated and can be set up in even the tightest camp sites. You won’t find a lighter, functional one-person tent anywhere.

Features:

  • Taped seams
  • Tie outs have bonded reinforcements for high strength
  • Storm doors can be opened or closed independently
  • Overlapping storm doors allow airflow without the need for additional venting - no zippers that could potentially fail over time
  • Vestibule has enough space for storing a wet backpack or muddy shoes
  • Rainbow zipper on screen door allows easy entry regardless of which storm door is closed
  • Screen door drops inwards rather than hanging in your way - no need to roll up or secure
  • Tarp overhangs bathtub floor & screen doors - in calm rain or under dripping trees the doors can be left open for air flow without water dripping on the floor space
  • Sewn-in 8" tall bathtub floor has plenty of space to stretch out, with room for your gear beside you or at the ends of the floor
  • Mesh pocket conveniently located near screen door can be accessed from inside or outside the tent
  • Dyneema® is naturally waterproof and is not treated with any potentially harmful chemicals such as flame retardants or water repellents
  • Easily repairable - any damage can easily be fixed in the field with DCF Repair Tape (included)
  • All Zpacks gear has a two-year limited warranty against defects in materials or workmanship

Quite nice and very functional
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Grey (Metal Silvered), Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Grey (Metal Silvered)
Elegant and substantial - this valet catch all for your night stand or dresser is quite nice and very sophisticated. Sleek and soft brushed suede like material. It was packed well, and is quite nice to keep miscellaneous items corralled together. I’m very pleased and would recommend.

Perfect size, high quality
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Black (Metal Silvered)
I had a previous catch all tray that I bought on amazon, it used buttons on the 4 corners to turn a flat cardboard into a tray. Over time, the catch all tray got filled up, not just with a wallet, keys and eyeglasses but eventually business cards and other knick knacks. With all the items inside the tray, sometimes the buttons would start to pop out. It wasn't awful, more of an annoyance. But it was time for me to find a more durable tray. I looked on amazon and added 6 different trays that had "potential" into my shopping cart. Then I carefully evaluated each one and deleted them out of my cart until there was only one left. Some had multiple compartments. Some were larger than this one. I felt the ones with compartments would limit my ability to put the things I want in there. Also, I didn't want it so big that it took up too much desk space. Ultimately, I felt this was the perfect size. I'm extremely happy with it, the quality is really nice and it looks and feels durable. No more loose buttons and spilled knick knacks.

Keeps clutter away
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Black (Metal Silvered)
This works great to corral all my notes I write on post its or small notes. Keeping them hidden from the desk top b/c or the depth but still visible to me. Much better than keeping on the plotter. Looks great in quality .

Attractive, Simple, And Well-Made
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Orange (Metal Glided)
I use this as a "catchall". A place to stash things like my wallet and keys when I enter the door, so that I don't use them (I had been prone to that!). It serves it's purpose well. It's both sturdy and attractive, and a good size for a "catchall". Recommended for those like me who need such things.

Good quality, orange color
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Orange (Metal Glided), Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Orange (Metal Glided)
The quality is surprisingly good but the color is much more orange toned in person.
