After a lot of thinking, we're pretty sure we want to get the Sun Valley 6. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be anywhere nearish to us (Oxford) where we can have a look at one in the flesh, so I have to rely on the videos/3D graphics on the outwell website. Just a couple of questions:
- Can you remove the panel that separates the main living area from the porch? So if the weather was good you can have the whole thing open making one large living area?
- We've got two little girls at the moment but there's the possibility that we could go for a third in the near future, in which case we might struggle to fit in the SV6 (especially with a travel cot) and are now wondering whether it's better to go for the SV8 instead. Looking at the measurements, it looks like the living area in the SV8 is smaller than the SV6, even if you remove the third bedroom, although the porch is much bigger. And also the tent overall has a much bigger footprint, so would that be a problem with pitch size in some campsites? And also, I've read quite a few comments about problems with leaks on the SV8 but not the SV6, so that could be an issue.
We're thinking of ordering from Outdoorworld because they're offering a free groundsheet. Anyone used them before and recommend them? I'm worried about having problems with leaks and not being able to return it easily.
Thanks for your help.
