Well we used the tent this week....but only stayed in it for one night.   Our first night there were horrendous gales and driving rain.  To be fair to the tent it stood up really well to the weather, there was only a slight leak in the living area where we left a UFO light against the tent wall.  Unfortunately neither me or DH slept a wink because of the roar of the wind and the expectation we may have to get up at any moment and hold the tent down.

The good news is the tent is sturdy and waterproof.

Ok note to self "dont post reply till i am done lol

Cheap tents dont usually do so well in bad weather so it sounds like it was way worth every penny.

Am surprised but pleasantly :)

Just seen the specs for this tent on a site here in Holland. Apparently it is HH4000mm !

I got this tent last year but only managed to sleep in it twice due to people deciding they dont like camping.

Going away with the tent this Friday and really looking forward to using it.  I would like to know how you managed to get up by yourself.  I tried a few times last year in the back garden and when i used it but never managed to get the poles in correctly.  any suggestions would be helpful,

this was our very first tent in 2005. lovely tent. got it from argos. had to send it back though and get a refund after only 2 outings. the zips on the doors broke. 2 poles bent and pole sheath stitching came undone and we had no wind either. love the set up in this one though would have been better sig throughout. the bedrooms opened up into 1 big one. thats brought back memories! had 2 great holidays in it..

is this the one

hi Milly

That looks like the one, it has shoe holders in the bedroom area.

Last year my dad helped me put it up but i need to do it on my own or at least have my son put the poles in.
