Hi Cat,just a note to say we used it over Easter and everything went ok.
It's not a bad tent at all.Had a bit of a problem with the wardrobe type affair,think thats what it was?The bit that sticks out from the main awning.We had a lot of rainfall and I didn't notice this ,it's now stretched the plastic roof area as it filled up with water.I suppose plastic dosn't go back in shape like canvas does.I will have to make sure we put support poles in that bit now as any rainfall will just sit there.
We also had a problem with some tree sap,was under a large pine tree,a drop of tree sap landed on the roof and its took the colour out of the canvas.It was grey and went completely white.Never had time to clean this off after we put it away.It was just a small drop ,will this rot through do you think?
Apart from these minor mishaps had a great time and I was pleased with the Raclet.
Hello. So pleased to hear you managed to get away in your Raclet
We try not to pitch directly under a tree but when we have haven't had too bad a problem. Not sure if tree sap can damage the fabric
Next time it will be easier Have fun camping
