Greetings 1 & all!,

I was wondering if i could fit an outwell side canopy to my Outwell Oregon 4, it claims on the website that its suitable for all outwell tunnel tents & most other brands, however, the side canopy stands higher than my Oregon, can you adjust the height of the porch?

Also, does the porch attach itself to the fly sheet?, how does it connect to the tent?

I'm a bit confused - you may have noticed!

Hi Ben and Kerry

The Outwell side canopy, I dont think would fit on your Oregon 4 as you pointed out height is an issue.  The Canopy does attact itself over the top of the tent and is 'guy' roped down - I cant remember if it has clips to attach to the poles too - I think the only true way you are going to find out is if you go to a shop that has these items on display and ask if it can be tried out - or if they would sell you a canopy so you can try attaching it at home and if it does not work would they take it back and get a refund.

Sorry this does not help with a straight yes/no answer.

I once used my outwell canopy on my 4 berth Lichfield Araphao. It fitted but was nearly bigger than the tent.  Looked very strange but gave us more space to cook and sit.  Will put photo on profile.   PamJ

Told  you it looked funny ! ! !

The clips don't fasten on to the tent poles , only on to its own poles.
