It's a nice tent, I like mine very much and find it very easy to live with.

However, at least one of you needs to be reasonably tall to put it up, and it definitely needs two of you, it's not one that can be thrown up by one person within fifteen minutes.

Saw one today at Go Outdoors - seems nice quality fabric and poles. Plus Go Outdoors had put it up OK which is unusual so suggests it is not that difficult.

My only critisism is that there appears to be better tents for the money - Vango hoop tents for less money offer more space in the bedrooms and potentially more stable with that kinda cross bracing system.

I have a new one and tested it out about 2 weeks ago in the rain, wind and hailstone. It stood up to the job well and with my fan heater I was lovely and warm!

We spent five nights I think it was in ours over the new year period.

Once up it is very stable, but a bit on the delicate side during erection.

Thanks for your comments, they helped me decide to buy a cedar creek.

FYI GoOutdoors have limited stock of these at £99, I nearly bought it last week for £150 phew :)

Cedar Creeks have been heavily discounted by many suppliers both last year and this. Always worth wondering why I think - you could be getting a total bargain just because others don't want last year's curtain colours or is there another reason why dealers have been force to sell off their stocks in this way? MT

Dunno really, I had thought of that but at £99 its worth a try (I nearly paid £50 more). If its not fit for the purpose then the sale of goods act will be there for me.

Anyways its a 5 person summer tent with loads of headroom (am over 6') for reasonable money, I'm happy :)

I bought mine for £99 and love it. Had no trouble with it so far and I'm colour co-ordinated with the field and hedges!!!
