Another utility tent query

Decided to buy a utility tent to use as a kitchen tent as I'm neurotic about cooking in the main tent and it'll be a bit chilly cooking outside at the end of the month methinks

So which would you experienced folks go for?

or the Outdoor Revolution one here -

(The O.R one is in the Camperlands sale at £26.67 but I can't get the link to work!)

I've spent all evening surfing and can't decide between the two. Unless of course you can suggest somehting better????? Got to be a reasonable price though - I've totally overspent on my camping budget already!!

The Camperlands link doesn't seem to be working.

Sorry, I'm no good at these links!

Have edited my post - thanks for looking

I still like the Aztec one as think it may come with steel poles for door too but not sure about this.I don't think the O.R one does.As for ventilation I'm not sure about that.The Aztec one is a good size too.Also HH good.

I'd like 1 of these myself but I can't afford one just yet,so maybe I will get one another time.I think would be very handy for extra storage such as bikes etc.
It does seem to be a good price.

The outdoor revolution one does an XL size (I have just ordered one) that is comparable with the aztec one

The one you have listed here is just the double 'toilet' tent..

It has a window as well - HH is 3000 compared to Aztec 4000, but i preferred the grey one! (got mine for £40 off ebay new, but was a private sale)

Thanks everyone for all the advice and opinions. I've finally made a decision and have gone for the Outdoor Revolution XL Outhouse - seems to have everything I need and is £45.99 at World of Camping so not a bad price (it's my early Christmas present!!)

Now just can't wait for it to arrive!

janso100, could I ask you about your Quechua base as I'm seriously considering buying one to use as a pup tent and also as a utility tent to our big tent.  Is there enough room to use camp beds to sleep on in the base and how many would fit?  We use the gelert aluminium framed beds they are about 195cm long and 65 wide.  Sounds like your please with this tent, any advise would be appreciated.

Trying to work out if there is time to pitch it before it gets dark....
