I have a Rock 5 from the seller bentondeep mentions. The seller is "alchemisicltd", as said who is based in Sheffield.

The tents sold are faulty/customer returns. Some though are quick fixes such as just needing a reproof, others may be missing poles or bedrooms etc.

Mine was sold as needing a reproof, however under hose pipe testing it kept water out. Though I have another test planned before using it in March.

The tent itself  (rock 5 that I have) is a good size for me and a dog, though not actually used for "for real" as of yet.

It is about the same size as the suggested Mojave, though I think a little shorter. The Mojave also allows for the option of not using a sleeping pod, to allow more living space. least I think i am right in saying that.

There is also another ebay seller based in Sheffield who sells returned tents etc is 3-traders http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/3-traders?_trksid=p2047675.l2559

So in short, as a suggestion for a tent. As a tent for 1 person and a dog, I "1man1dog" suggest the Rock 5. :)

right here goes ..Daughter setting up her own camping setup , she going to be on the pitch next to us this summer rather than sharing ours .need advice on which tent please, she would eventually like to be able to take the dog with her so is taking that into consideration for later down the line.She doesn't have that big a car & wouldn't be able to tow a trailer as she only passed her test last year. Think steel poles would be too much weight in the car.but would like at least a four man with awning ? so as somewhere to store wet coats wellies etc must have a sig also .any other things I need to look at ? advice please.
