can anyone help us.

we are a family with two young children, new to camping.    we need a suitable tent that would be easy to erect as we are complete novices.   i have been looking at the outwell minnesotas 4 and 6, and the outwell hartford L.  are these suitable, and easy to pitch.      many thanks.   steve.

The minnesota must be easier to pitch than the hartford judging by the shape - have you checked out the video's on the Outwell website? - Just as a tip when we had 2 small kids and no tent we borrowed one the first year to get an idea of what to look for, you may know someone who will be able to lend you one and give you some training in the back garden...

The Minnesota's will be a lot easier to pitch than the Hartford. We have a Montana 6 which is just a bigger version of the Minnesota and is quite easy to pitch.
