Hi

What is a footprint? just been looking at the new Diablo 600 (07) which had one included in with price but no idea what one is!!

Thanks wondered what it was....Think I know what you mean! so is it a pain putting the inner up first? I have a smaller vango venture 500 which is brill to pitch but could do with another bedroom really and like vango as had other tents in the past and not as good quality (in my opinion)

We  have one - used extensively last year  -  if you have as saggy bedroom it'll be down to not pitching it quite as it should be. Highly recommend spending £25 or so on a footprint - saves loads of time figuring out if it points the right way  - or if it'll fit on the pitch (it's big)!

Faults so far - none! The pegs are very weedy though - upgrade with Delta's at the first opportunity

Takes about 45 minutes to whack it up once you ge the hang of it

we had a diablo 600...and had some great holidays in it (our bedroom pods were alway a tad saggy) anyway we sold it and decided to 'upgrade' to an Outwell  BBBIIIGGG mistake!!!!!

Enjoy your holidays in your 600...you wont be disapointed 

we bought a diablo 600 last year to start our camping life and it was the best thing we have done we had a great year of camping couldn't fault the tent (once you got used to putting it up)we got the ground sheet too it is worth getting as it not only protects the tent it also gives you a good idea of where the tent is placed

                  Enjoy

Well I suppose someones got to buy them !

Hope you and your diabolical are very happy together !

Bought ours last year, its great.

we have used it about 4 times, now ready for the big one, we are looking to book 2 weeks away in France in August, we may even aim for the Ardeche 1000 miles!!!
