when we put up our evo 600 we had to put in the bedrooms too, but when we took it down i took out the pods, just becasue i thought maybe it wouldnt go back into the bag. But i am wondering if i did the right thing because i cant face doing it all again in sweltering, humid weather ( if we are lucky ) so generally what do others do . Is it in then out or in and stays in. [:o)]

Because we're bone idle, it's definitely

IN and stays IN for ever !

If needs be, a few minutes spent jumping up and down on the folded tent encourages it to go back into its bag.

usually if you can leave your bedrooms in when packing away it will be 'pitching way flysheet or as one but your tent says flysheet only' so I wouldnt personally risk packing it away with the pods still in.. but it might not hurt to try it once.

I take ours out as I find it easier to pack the fly if I'm not worrying about getting mud on the bedrooms

We've had to take ours out every time because every time we pack up, it's raining There's no way we'd be able to get ours dry here at home if it still had it's inners in! I keep hoping that one day, just once, going home day would dawn fair and dry *sigh* because then we'd definitely try and leave the bed pods in

I take ours out becaue I can barely lift the thing with the inner in! We wrap it separately with the footprint and bedroom poles.

 Same as Fran for us as well, no way could you lift it all together, the fly is a bugger on its own to lift so with bedroom pods attached would need a crane to lift it into place.

we've started leaving ours in now, but bought a larger bag (£15 from Winfields) to allow for the extra material. Also helps when pitching as before we sometimes had to adjust straps to put pod in, now it's much easier.

Hi. Our Evo 600 has had the inners attached since day 1. It uses the same fixing arrangement as most other tents, and hasn't suffered any damage at all.

The ONLY time that I have ever detached inners is on non-SIG tents, where I want to put a water hose on the inner groundsheet, and this makes it easier to hang on the washing line.
