I saw this one too but have never heard of make. I think with tents it's a case of you get what you pay for.

We passed it by.

if you read the message boards you will notice that lots of people have pro action tent. i think most of them say good things about them and they seem to stand up to the elements very well

We have a pro action nevada 8 person tent. Tried it out in the New Forest a couple of weekends ago and couldn't fault it. There were six of us altogether - two adults and four teenagers. It stood up to a very wet Saturday evening and we had plenty of room to bring the picnic table inside and still move about.

We have a 4   man proaction Argos tent . The only downside for us was that the bedrooms were slighty too small  for 2 lilos , but as it was only £40 , cant complain .

Not a tenter before hand! Probably still not! I brought the Halfords 4 man starter tent! Sleeping bags, beds lights etc. was ok! But had problems with the zips. Took it back when i saw this 12 man tent! Just used it this weekend in Pevensey! Could not fault it. Large! Was easy to put up, and if it rains bring the picnic inside plenty of floor room.We had 12 people sitting around on the floor having fish and chips! Plenty of room in the bedromms! Dont think i would like to sleep for Adults in 1 bedroom! We have a large blow up bed and there was still room on either side of the bed for clothes etc. Compared to the Halfords tent the quality is excellent! Halfords is Sooooooooo cheap. You pay for what you get! BIG! Good tent for the family. Cant wait til next week in Selsey.

A friend of mine at work has just bought a 9 birth tent from Argos costing £150. He thought he had got a bargain until he tried to put it up and the spikes on 2 of the poles snapped. hence he has taken it back.

Daughter has had one of the Pro Action 3 - 4 person dome tents from Argos for 4 years, cost me about £40, gets used regularly every summer and is still ok. It was the teenagers sleep over tent at the National last week, I think they had 5 in it at one point.

If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, just keep going till you go round the bend.

We have just bought a Pro-Action 4 berth tent from Argos for the kids to camp out in the garden with their mates - half price £24.99 BARGAIN - also got a couple of 400gm sleeping bags reduced from £29.99 each to £9.99 each.

We put it up last night, and it is fab for that price! Kids love it!
