My partner and I are looking to invest in a new tent.  We have used a Lichfield Montana for the last 5 years and have no complaints at all.  We are now looking to get a slightly larger tent incase we have a new baby camper joining us!!

Our main prioities are height and porch.  We have looked at the Outwell Oregon 5 and are quite impressed, we like that set up as opposed to a vis a vis layout.  Can anyone give me any pros and cons from personal experience about this tent or any other of this ilk.

Thanks in advance 

I recently bought an Oregon 5. Simple to put up and the 3/2 divider sleeping area is a cracking idea. Good for height and very stable in Scottish wind. Problem was it started to leak around both front porch zip seams. Water would start to dribble down the inside and drop onto the ground sheet. They are supposed to be waterproof so I'm returning it. The company who sold it to me did say this is the first time they've had one returned and could only put it down to a bad batch, which might be the case. Apart from that, I would recommend it.

P.S. I bought mine for £149.00
