I have the two kids sleep in the two man tent (the three man would be more comfortable if your children are older, mine are 11 and 8)

I sleep in the base seconds full, but there would be room for two adults easily.

Geting 4 of you in the base seconds full would be a bit of a tight squeeze, but if it is only for one night you might be OK

Hi All, last weekend we went to freshwater with our base 2 seconds 3 and 2 seconds basic and it was all very pleasing. Especially when we packed up and one of our neighbours got to laugh at me putting the base down, knew I had to make the shape of a mans genitals before folding it but couldn't get the dimensions right!! Wife just tutted and said "no change there" don't know what she's getting at! But after a pause and a re read of the bag based instructions got it on the second attempt. The base is more than large enough for daily use being 2.25 m square and due to having purchased a kingsize air bed and forgetting i slept in the base with the dog and everything else we had with us. All in all a very roomy quick to erect system. I have used the 2 seconds 3 a few times now and it is probably one of the best bits of camping kits I have ever purchased. Combined with the Base it becomes very useful. We will not be selling the Diablo anytime soon as for more than a few days it's nice to have the space but for our weekend jaunts the quechau will do just fine.

now we know why some people think the base thingy is huge and others say it is a tiny thing
