Hi lat  we went  to c&cc site at mablethorpe first week of august ( the week the weather changed ) it was  raining like stair rods and  blowing like billyo   non stop  from sunday evening to  wednesday ,  by which time i'd had enough and decided to  call it a day and head for home ,  Grandkids were really disappointed  but  theres only so much you can do to entertain them . The tent stood up  brilliantly though  through all the torrential rain and wind ,  never moved an inch  and was bone dry inside , the site  were good enough to hold  the money for the rest of the week  in a 'holding account ' which was a nice surprise  so  the next trip is almost paid for  , i'm hoping  we have better weather next time

Hi lesley, my nevada died in bad weather! The vents close down with velco and they kept blowing up and rain was getting in there, rain poured in under it, I could see daylight through the teeth of the zip and rain was coming in there, the zip where you can unzip the front and move it back to make a pourch kept opening up itself! ( spooky!) The delta pegs worked tho!

Hi lesley, maybe we just hit extreme weather that day, some of the well known makes have problems and some don't, suppose it's just luck of the draw. the delta pegs have never let me down with either tent in the wind.
