Q for Sonjap

Very interested in the Khyam XL classic TC.  I've never noticed it before.  I'm going to have a hunt for any reviews on here.  BTW is the annexe in the same material or is there one annexe suitable for both the polycotton and the normal tents.  Thanks.

Cabanon go on and on

My father has a Cabanon Julie (must be 25 years old) & a Cabanon Lisa (must be 20) and both are going strong and will do for another few years yet.

Go Canvas & if you can affod it go Cabanon

We have a coleman and find it brill!!

We started with a crappy millets starter 4 pigmy berth and moved onto the Coleman. It is well designed, stands up to the rain/sun and is great quality.

As has already been said, Cabanon are the Rolls of the tent world.

I am biased, as I have one.

Their canvas has always been considered the best there is, and personally I would not have a nylon/poly tent.

OK if you only want to try camping but you will want to upgrade if you get bitten by the bug.

It is new this year and so far it seems there is no annexe available.  or a screen canopy.

andy pandy 666 is my fount of knowledge for all things khyam and he went to see one earlier this year i believe. He is on his hols at the moment but when he gets back you should ask him about it.

if the poly cotton version had been available when i bought mine i imagine i would have chosen it (taking all other factors into account).

If you are not worried about matching colours a polyester annexe would still be useful for 'stuff' and extra shelter.

Thanks

I am now deciding between a Cabanon cotton and the Khyam XL TC.  I'll hold of buying a little bit longer and consult andypandy.

Here you go then, OUTWELL

However ours is a 2005 so we did not have a problem as many others did with the  2006's 

Khyam definatly I have a Khyam Rigipod it's a fantastic tent and wouldn't change it for the world would highly reccomend a Khyam.
