"We've camped a lot, and the children wanted their own tents this year for our trip to Germany, so bought two of these. I was dubious of the single skin thing, but assured by another camping friend it would be OK. IT WAS NOT. the first night my teenage son was soaked through condensation. After two more nights we had to buy him a new tent. My daughter managed longer, though still a problem - (younger and less sweaty?), but in the end the rain got in and she ended up in the bigger tent with me....... fun? Well, we coped!"

"Bought this tent for a two night camping trip in the summer. When we put the tent up the seam for the front storage area split but didnt damage the inners, so we settled in for the night. After about an hour inside the tent we had a serious condensation problem. No idea why this happened but my partner and i were soaked. The inside of the tent is cramped and between us we had about three hours sleep. Admitting defeat we decided to get out of the tent to sleep in the car and as a final insult the zips bust. Would not recommend this tent to anyone. That is unless they too want to play noughts and crosses in the condensation on the tent wall at 3am!! Needless to say we called the trip short and i will be looking for a refund."

"Brought this tent for Glastonbury as our other tents were leant to my Parents, expecting a basic tent suitable for a few days camping in a field. When I put the tent up one of the rain cover hooks was missing meaning we had to use a bin bag on the top. This meant we didn't get drenched when the heavens opened but wet from where the condensation leaked in from the bag pushing against the skin.
The tent was also missing one of the holders the poles sit in, in the corner- which meant we had to push the pole into the mud, which didn't work well in the wet when it kept popping out.
Finally on the third night one of the main seems running down the corner of the tent was beggining to split, allowing more rain into the tent. Thank god by this time the rain had passed as we would have been very unhappy campers in the rain.
Overall this tent was not worth the money, ok it was cheap. but you still expect the tent to last at least 5 days in a sheltered field with some moderate rain. I will be bringing my tent back and demanding a refund to be put towards a decent tent from a better retailer."
