Took our Diablo 900 out for the first tiome this weekend. IT IS FAB.
The only problem was the length of time it took us to get set up. I have read on here of people getting theirs up  in less than an hour!!!!!!
Well from parking the car to leaving for the pub it took us 4 hours. OK we are relative newbies [only the second time we have ever put a tent up - and first time a Diablo] and we had completly emptied car and blown up air beds etc by the time we left but still I would say it took a good 2.5-3hrs and wedidn't have any real problems other than only having one mallet!
Having said that it is a wonderful tent and we were getting lots of admiring looks from the neighbours [as well as sarcastic comments-"wouldn't a trowel and some bricks be quicker!"..all taken in good heart, theywere only jealous]
