Hi
We had a Hartford XL one season then a Vango Diablo 900 the next.
Sold them and bought a secondhand Cabanon Galaxy TTent for this year. Used it twice and looking forward to our main Summer holiday in it this August.
Yes, we enjoyed being bugfree with the SIG, and no draughts either. But the raised up beds more than make up for that. We make sure we tuck the mud wall bits under the groundsheet, and bought 2 big groundsheets. (The Galaxy is a really big ttent.
It's really comfy, and feels much more solid.
It's also cooler as we can roll up various side panels and doors to let the breeze through.
The bedrooms can be left zipped up all day and stay bugfree for the night times, if you prefer.
Pegging out time doesn't seem any longer than the tents, and loads of equipment can be stored in the trailer ready for the next getaway.
However, I admit I was in the camp shop lusting over folding campers last week!!!!!
Just can't afford one yet,
Could go on all day, but we really do prefer the TTent.

We went from 2 man tent, to 3 man tent, to 5 man tent, to Easi-camp combi, and now to old Randger TT. The jump to the Easi-camp was the best - just unfolds and in you get, nothing to peg and can be done by little old me on my own. Superb when off linedancing on my own and need cheap accommodation! Now bought old Randger TT and still struggling. Colin the Combi won't be sold! Best part of TT? Off the floor beds and secure on the ground.

We went from two berth tent to frame tent to trailer tent to caravan then back to frame tent cos therewas more room ! Picked up a Conway late last year off this site cheers Ian from Middleton still got the raclet but trying to persuade my niece to buy it but she has no storage space for it my youngest son has been camping with us since he was born we used to have a travel cot for him he's eight now and has never stayed in a hotel or chalet we stayed in a cottage for two years but still went camping for us the trailer tent wins out every time
