Quechua base seconds 4.2 gets another thumbs up here. We got it as a short break tent but we now use it all the time with a base seconds add on for extra space.

Both ridiculously easy to put up and take down - I can easily manage them on my own and I'm 5'4".

Read the reviews on here - not a bad review in 33!

People, Decathlon appear impossible to contact - does anyone know what the difference is between the Quecha Base Seconds 4.2 and the Quecha Base Seconds 4.2 Constellation other than £30 and the colour?? Thanks! :)

Also, where can you get add-on's from and how do they add on?

Thank you v v much :)

We got a Nevada M for grandson. Instant pop-up and easy to pack away. Thoroughly recommended.

Hi H. You've probably seen it already, but the Quechua Base Seconds 4.1 has just the one bedroom, which might work better for you... not sure about add ons or contacting decathlon, though... Hopefully someone else will chime in?

Lichfield Yana worked well for us this summer.

Just throw it on the ground and it's up - literally that easy. Odd configuration inside - lots of space overall but the inner tent is too small to lie properly unless you lie diagonally - or are less than 5'4" tall.

Folding up is quick but only after you've got the knack.

Pretty good performance in heavy rain and a fair bit of wind but we tied on a few extra guy ropes for stability.
