Just back from weeks camping with new tent a Vango Wyoming 800 bought in April this year and it was its first outing. Was wondering if anybody has had problems with droplets of water coming through tent as we did, as Paul daniels would say "not a lot" but enough some fell onto sleeping pods but thankfully never came into pods. Also felt a very very fine mist at times. Tent is going to Vango via Milletts to get checked out (knew we kept old tent for a reason may get away yet for a weekend when dry).

I bought a Vango Wyoming 800 back in May/June.   Took it out in June for a few days and boy did it rain!   Not a drop came in!  We did have condensation in the nights tho  but it disappeared after the tent was opened up in the morning.   Just came back from another weekend and the tent was great, there was condensation in the nights but with 2 adults a child and 2 dogs all breathing, and a sodden pitch it was hardly surprising  

Only thing I'd change is the groundsheet, the blurb said 3/4 GS but its actually only in the middle.  I'd like the choice of not having both pods up.

Did'nt appear to be condensation droplets appeared too big and too spread from one droplet to the next. We were supposed to have a 3/4 GS aswell but it only covers the the middle will let you know through forum if I can get that resolved.
