I've got a 2006 Antares 13 which is a fantastic tent but it does take some putting up, not sure I'd like to do it with 4 kids to "help".  It takes around an hour for 2 people to fully put up and peg out etc.  and is brilliant for holidays of a week or more but not so good for weekends.  There's loads of space inside to have the table and chairs to sit round and eat if it's not very good weather and once it's pitched it doesn't move an inch even when windy.  We use ours without one of the bedroom inners and use that end as a kitchen annex, the kids have a 5 berth inner between them and me and OH have a 4 berth which has room for the airbed and room to stand and get dressed round the sides.  it has great head height, at 5'6" tall I can just reach to toggle in the bedroom pods so that's how tall it is!

I know they did change the design and layout of last years models so that's all  probably not much help to you!  Wynnster make some great tents, I've had 3 and not had any problems with any of them. 

For ease of putting up you would probably be good with a tunnel or frame tent, one with a 2 bedroom inners that could be divided depending on who the kids want to sleep with!
