Finaly decided to plung in and buy that trailer tent I've been after for a while. Checked out the internet, looked at the brochuires and came to a decision. ......  or not!

Can't decide between Conway Classic Trio or the Cabanon Atlantis. Does anybody have either that they could let me know a review or some details about. would greatly appreciate it.

Conway have always used cabanon canvas, not sure it thats changed now Pennine have taken over.

My own view is Conways are tops!

Hi gary,we have the galaxy which is the previous model to yours,our's doesn't have the zip on the awning as the atlantis does so its a bit of a pain to put up with the wifelet at 5ft nowt!!,the beds are really comfy,never thought bout them being thin??,ours is up in about 11/2 hours all told so not to bad,had couple of really windy and wet weekends on Anglesey last year and no probs with leaks or anything,Good luck in your quest.

Hi Gary
I think you’ll get a 50/50 match to your question
I have the classic trio bought last year after nec show. Love it!! but i must say i was in the same position as you, it then came down to price and extras. I bought a show special which was last years colours (green)and an older type trailer - that meant having no drawers in the bedroom (at the end under window) but came with wind down legs, under bed tent, porch wall and large steel fridge box on the trailer. (old style again but I think they're bigger than GRP ones), ask around the dealers and the suppliers of what they’re giving as extras I was told that I had a choice of porch wall or bed tent, after contacting Conway they told me their offer was for both so the sent me the bed tent through.

Best of luck with your choice I know you’ll enjoy either one!!

Thanks to you all for your responses. I'll just look at the best price I can get either of them for. Much obliged to you all.

Gary
