Good poncho for a reasonable price!
Can’t speak for its ability to protect you in very heavy rain, but certainly, this did its job during light to moderate rain. Happy days! Also, somewhat obviously, it’s absolutely usable as a lightweight tarp - in our case we used this to wrap up boots and other kit, to keep them dry overnight, when the rain really kicked off. Nice utility. Fit size? I’m six foot with an athletic build, and it fit really well. Happy with this item!

Recommended.
I live in a humid climate where a rain jacket would make one sweat. I have two of these.One navy, one camo. In heavy rain much more air flow than a jacket. Very good quality. Pleased with them. Recommended. The first thing I did with both of them on arrival was to seam seal the stitching around the zip and at the front where the waist drawstring is attached. I did this because I have previously read that some owners had experienced some water ingress at those points. It was just a precaution on my part. I have not had any leakage problems. I use one on my motor scooter, and the other for walking. Pack up fairly small, and can even be used as an emergency tarp shelter for those that hike. Though you will need some string ot paracord. Be aware. Unless wearing rain pants, your trousers will get wet from the water running off the poncho. Not a problem for me as I am mostly in shorts.

Keeps you mostly dry.
Keeps you mostly dry. The seams that attach the hood to the 'body' are not sealed, (they are taped, but not sealed), and so let water in over time. I'd recommend using seam sealer to fix this. Highly recommend having a cap, (baseball cap), to wear under the hood. That will help you see, but also keep dry. The only 'gripe' I would have with it, is as a larger man, the top poppers are too close together for my arms to go through gaps, so I have to use the second gap down, which lifts the poncho up more than I'd like when I use it. .. Other than that, it's awesome!

Lightweight and compact
Very lightweight poncho and material is quite thin, certainly not as robust as the military issue bashas/poncho. Seems well made; press studs and grommets seem sturdy. I love the Pencott cammo but have not yet had chance to test it in the rain. Comes with a small stuff sack which keeps things neat and tidy

Bushcraft and Outdoor kit
Helikon Tex ponchos are useful pieces of kit to carry with you as a waterproof cover or to be used as a quick set up shelter. Great quality and of a good price. Though some taller people may have an issue with the size, it's still useful as a lightweight and compact shelter.

Waterproof and Versatile
Just got to try this for it's waterproof qualities in a massive downpour for half an hour while walking the dog, everything under the poncho was bone dry when I got back home, very impressed, bottom of my legs on the other hand were soaking, may have to think more about the bottom half of my body in future. Have also used this with the mil-Tec poncho liner for a night out a few days ago, not sure if the poncho will stand up to much use when lying on the ground but so far it has worked for me and I was cosy enough, not sure if the combo will be good enough for any thing but summer use mind. I have also set it up as a lean-to and a plough point shelters which was easy enough with the amply supply of the rings and a bit of para-cord. My one downside is the poppers do not seem to hold very well, of course you don't want them to be too tough to undo but I would prefer them to be a little tighter. Overall, pleased with my purchase I am, would I buy again, yes.

Great quality
The quality is great. It's could be a little bigger but I am 6'4" so if you are normal size it should be fine. Packs down nice and small. A little on the pricey side though.

This will keep you dry!
And you can use it as a bivvy in a fix if you bring cordage. Just be gentle with the poppers. Slightly shorter than a full length military poncho which for a short-ass (5'6) like me is ideal, no tripping over myself! Dries fast and packs away easily. So good my 70 year old mum now has one too. Another brilliant suggestion from Hidden Valley Bushcraft. Nick Goldsmith FTW!

Ist sein Geld wert
Der Poncho ist solide verarbeitet. Knapp 25 Euro sind ok. Mit billigeren hatte ich nur schlechte Erfahrungen. Und bessere sind auch teurer. Der Heli-Poncho ist gut verarbeitet, hat wirklich gute Metalldruckknöpfe. Die Kapuze lässt sich mit der Kordel superschnell und einfach zuziehen. Bisher hat er auch 100% dicht gehalten, wenn er auch noch keinen stundenlangen Starkregen aushalten musste . Das Gewicht ist angenehm niedrig, dafür, das er Metalldruckknöpfe hat. Diesbezüglich hatte ich bisher nur den alten BW Poncho, der aber dafür das doppelte wiegt und den ich deswegen mit diesem Heliponcho ersetzt habe. Mit den Druckknöpfen und einem zweiten Poncho lässt sich auch sehr schnell ein etwas grösseres Tarp daraus machen, wenn man bspw. Zu zweit unterwegs ist. Und zuletzt. Der Poncho ist natürlich auch auf den Swagman roll von Helikon zugeschnitten. Dieser Poncholiner von Helikon Tex, der sich auch in einen Schlafsack verwandeln lässt. Aus dem Swagmanroll und diesem Poncho lässt sich dann schnell ein sehr gut wasserabweisender Schlafsack knüpfen. Dazu wird der Swagmanroll zum Schlafsack gefaltet und Reissverschlüsse zu. Dann legt man diesen ausgefalteten Poncho hier, drumherum und befestigt ihn mit den vorhandenen Ösen an beiden Teilen miteinander. Tolle Sache. Mit dem Poncho und dem Swagmanroll habe ich somit mit knapp 1,3Kilo sowohl eine warme und regenfeste Kleidung am Lager, die ich bei schlechtem Wetter tragen kann, wie auch gleichzeitig immer einen Schlafsack mit Regenhülle, die zudem ja auch noch windisolierend auf den Schlafsack wirkt. Tolle Sache, diese Kombi reicht mir für die meiste Zeit von Spätfrühjahr bis Spätherbst bei ungeplanten Overnightern als Schlafgelegenheit. Einziger Nachteil des Poncho. Der letzte Druckknopf da, wo dann die Arme durchgehen, der ist mir zu eng gesetzt. Da lassen sich bei mir die Arme nicht mehr bewegen ohne das der Knopf dann wieder aufgeht. Ich hab jetzt auch nicht gerade Schwarzenegger Arme, da sollte Helikon tex etwas mehr Luft einbauen. Lieber liegt der Poncho an den Armen nicht so dicht an, als das der Knopf beim ausstrecken der Arme immer aufgeht Ansonsten Top. Werde mir bei meiner nächsten Warenbestellung noch einen zulegen.
