Looking to reduce the costs a little and came accross the
easy camp Licta 600 tent.

Tried a search, turned up nothing.

I had a good poke around a Licata 600 recently. I was very tempted to buy (but got a good deal on a frame tent on ebay) They look well made though lack some of the extras of Outwell, fancy window meshes pocket holders etc (Outwell,their parent company). However there is no compromise on things like the quality of materials and design. The 600 is going for £99 at Go outdoors at the moment . I'd have no hesitation and would have definitely gone for the go outdoors tent had we not splurged on ebay.

Easycamp are budget Outwells.They tend to be less highly spec'd such as canopies have ties instead of clips, the HH is generally lower, and bathtubs dont quite fit as well as the Outwell equivalent. Other than that they are fine and I bought a Toranto similar to my VV500 but it is inner first and the outer is tied on to the poles. Tent is fine though.

I had a Easy Camp tent for a few years and it was a lovely tent - better spec than the sunncamp and coleman that I now have but was too big for us  the SIG was absolutely fine.

We're got a Taranto 500 and it's great - we wanted a good sized family tent for under £100 and this fitted the bill perfectly.

I'm very happy with it so far.

good luck!

 We have a cosenza  and although it is really horrid to put up...inner first and really awquard to attach fly with with sticky out bedroom pods... once erected it is really cosy and warm being double skinned,so we use it for winter camping,theres a pic on profile of it in feb in the snow,and I must say the quality for the price is excellent

 We have had an Easy Camp Reggio 1000 for a year now. Great tent for the price apart from the poles seem to be very weak and snap easily so we have had to 'upgrade' the poles.
