Our "next door" campers had one on our last trip away and it looked like a good tent for the price.......until the wind started blowing, when it spectacularly died. Tips I have learnt from their misfortune, make sure you guy out properly with decent pegs, if the weather is a bit blowy, check your guys regularly, and try not to pitch with a side wind. If any guys get loose it turns into a kite. Try to bag a fairly sheltered pitch.

I would say you have a pretty good tent for a very good price, which will probably be fine as long as you don't hit any really nasty weather. To be honest, the weather was that bad that all but 7 tents had damage, and they were frame tents or quite small tents, but the ProAction was the first to cease to be.
