Our Aztec Galeria 4.  We bought it at Barrett's of Feckenham, in their autumn sale.

RRP for the tent at that time was £270, and for the canopy another £70.

We got the two on a deal for £240, saving £100.

Because it was a great deal, we thought the tent would not be best quality, but it's been absolutely wonderful. Top quality materials and zips, lightweight, loads of windows and doors, SIG... just a little camping palace!

I got a real bargain yesterday at go outdoors, as well as it being their 15% off weekend for the bits I picked up. I decided that we needed the larger campingaz cylinder 907/904.

I had the smaller one half empty, took it back to change for a bigger one and refill. The lady on the till called over the manager to sort it. He refunded me the price of the smaller one, and charged me the larger one. (smaller one more expensive than larger). This then put money onto my bill to take off my bits, I then gave him the refill card to run through the till and he told me I didn't need to pay it as I had bought a new bottle. I didn't argue. So I got a full big bottle for a small half empty bottle, no refill fee and a refund on my shopping trolley. Love go outdoors .

Feeling a tad guilty though.

Hi Fo0.
I have this tent and I think it is a little beauty, but oh how I struggle with the camping pods! It must be me I thought, but even OH struggled and here's a guy who just picks things up and 'knows' how it works!
Do you have a secret you could share in how you put the pods up - they're not like the normal ones I am used to.

Hi there, Mantrachant!  Glad to know you're another owner of 'the best little tent in the World'!  

When you say the camping pods, do you mean the bedroom pods?  Yes, they really bamboozled us for a good hour before we got the hang of it.  Basically, you have to cross the elastic bands at the top front, so they go into the relevant anchor holes.  In other words, the front of each pod is like a 'D', and they go side by side, with the straight sides together.  Then you hook them at the back, and then at the sides, and lastly you hook them at the front and down the side of the tent, starting at the top.  But it's important you cross those elastics, to get them in the right hole.  They're colour-coded, but having to cross them over is confusing.  It's the only way to get the right tension.  It threw us for ages, until I saw the light!  Finally you peg them both, using the single hole in the middle of the tent.

Hope this helps.  If not, send me a message, and I'll see if I can explain it better.

Good luck!
