Oh no!!! I fell in love with this tent earlier this year but funds were limited so we went for our next best - the Oregon 800.  Now Somerset camping are selling the 2006 Aspen 500 for £175 (on ebay) Can I justify spending more money on another tent!!

Convince me I don't need it.  We only camp for a maximum of 4 days at a time so the Oregon is ideal. But.....if we had the Aspen maybe we'd stay away longer.

No, must be sensible - it would have to go on credit card. There, my mind is made up.....or is it.....

How does the aspen compare with a frame tent for cosiness.  We got a bot chilly last week in our Oregon and bedded down quite early to get warm, whereas in our old frame tent we were quite warm,

Help, some advice need for a new tent. I was looking for a new tent and was going to opt for the Diablo 600 however now I have seen this considering changing my mind.  Mainly looking to use it at weekends.  Is this a better tent than the Diablo?

The Aspen versus the Diabolical ???

Your avin a larf!

The Aspen IS the Diabolical with all the mistakes put right : full height bedroom so no floppy sides ,instead of  bedrooms sprawling everywhere they shoved around to the back to fit on most pitches , lost and lots of windows and vents so it doesnt feel as closed in as the diabolical ,its also a little more tastefully coloured!

Looking at your gallery clare I see a picture of the tent in the snow. Did you camp in that weather?  How was it?
