some how Tinhouse69 I don't think for one minute they are using some industrial sized washing machine to clean the tents with! lol in fact I would suggest that they clean the tents the same manner that I use! i.e. clean water and a pressure washer, and to be honest if your garden is big enough to peg it out in then its not that hard to do yourself for a lot less than £270!

I too like the idea of hand washing and I too have a grommet for my stove which gave me the idea of washing the tent with something like Nikwax Techwash in the bath and wondered if anyone had tried it.

I can just fit the tent in my garden (now that I've removed some shrubs from the lawn) to dry it or maybe for a pressure washer and brush treatment.

The cost of clean and re-proof also gave me the idea to sell my tent and combine the proceeds with what the cleaning would cost to buy a new tent.
