Anyone tried one of the Lidl Crivit 4 man tents that were on sale a couple of weeks back for £30?
If so, I would be interested to hear what you think of them.

I haven't bought one personally but for £30 I would say it falls into the 'take to a festival and burn before leaving' category.

Loads of reviews here, and seem to endorse James Watts comments above?

Thanks for the replies. Can't expect too much from a £30 tent, I suppose.

Like it, Caligula, but my daughter is after a reasonably lightweight 3-4 man tent (she doesn't have a car). And my wife would be less than impressed if I bought another 1-2 man tent - I already have four!

Please do not go burning plastic!
Please recycle responsibly.

I suppose you could recycle it as a sieve.

I have one of these and it stayed put in moderate winds and kept us dry in heavy rain.
Maybe I got lucky but for £30, would I buy another if needed, YES.
Would I use it for 3 nights, YES.
Would I use it for a week, NO.
Can I complain for £30, NO.
I have seen equal/worse tents in the sub £100 category to honest.
Infact, I believe in that category, some are probably made in the same factory as this one with similiar materials.

I've got a Lidl beach shelter from the middle aisle offers, must be knocking on 15 years old at least, been quite well used and probably sheltered me from as much rain and wind as sun, still going strong! If memory serves it was on clearance after the normal short time offer period, and cost a whopping £8 at the discounted price!
If your tent is anything like as good, you've got a bargain. Of course, it is what it is, not likely to be the best tent out there, but if typically Lidl, far better than the (original RRP) price would suggest! As Lidl are strictly retailers, chances are it came out of the same far east factory as many a branded tent, in fact may even be a rebranded version of a known tent, as quite a lot of Lidl middle aisle stuff is rebranded major brands.
