Deffo, ours have always been fine in the past, when you twin the lip of 1 goes over the other then you just connect the string/hooks at the door bits to twin, there is a vid on the Quechua website on twinning. Best thing about these tents is if you get a break in the weather to pack away they shake dry as the rain beads off them.

You would be better using the bedroom inner in 1 tho for condensation etc.

Thanks for that.
I do have the bedroom inner so should be ok.
We used them in April and although very cold over night
Kept us snug.
It's tipping it down here, hope it gets a little better as we are camping with 2 other families and like to sit out:-)

The only reason I bought 2 units a few years ago was due to the fact I needed a tent I could set up quickly in the rain, have a bedroom I could stand up in and have a living area I can eat in and remain dry.

They have served me well and kept me dry. It's a pity they are no longer available, since I have several friends who want the same setup. Pity the XL is still expensive.

The trouble with getting it right first time is nobody appreciates how difficult it is!
