Hi, I have seen that Awnings Direct have Colamean Bi Space 300 tents on special offer at the moment.

Can anyone tell me if these tents are any good and if it is possible for one person to pitch one of these?

Also, has anyone had any experience of buying from Awnings Direct (http://www.e-awnings.co.uk/)

Any advice appreciated!

I got a 300. I've erected it on my own, even took it on the back of the motorbike, but it was a bit heavy for that.

It's a great tent good quality, and very good in high winds. I have to say it is a bit of a handfull to get up on your own, but is possible to get a technique together after a few attempts. The main problem is the weight of the living area once the poles are in situ.

I've just ordered two of them from there. A few people bought them when the bargain was mentioned in another thread and there have been no screams of outrage. If you buy on credit card then you're bulletproof anyway. Now just need to wait for them to arrive!

I have a 500 and manage to get mine up on my own, so it must be easier with the 300 surely.

Hi

We bought one from them a couple of weeks ago as an overnight tent while on longer journeys or tent for my hubby's sanity away-days. Ordered Thursday evening, arrived Monday!

Had a look, all seems to be in order, hoping to try pitching it this weekend. Can't believe they still have some in stock at that price.

Thanks for the information everybody.

I must admit I was a bit skeptical that the deal was real at that price!

I will be getting my order in this morning.

Hi we have a Coleman Trispace, & the other half (who is a control freak) managed to erect that on his own last year, apparently being pregnant meant I was unable to help. I love Coleman they are fantastic quality tents, although due to the new baby we have changed to the Outwell Motanna, I was pushing to have a new Coleman, but the boss had his way in the end.

I bought the same tent from the same company, excellent delivery time & its very easy to put up in a livingroom(it was raining outside) big enough for us & it seems very well made.

I managed to get two extra poles so I can have both verandas out at the same time.

A good buy from a friendly and helpful company, no I don't work there lol

Hi Jock

Where did you get your extra poles from?

Cheers
