Hi all!

Does anyone know if Outwell have plans to make a canopy for this tent next season at all? I am after a new tent (and am waiting for the end of season sales!) and this is my favourite, however, we really need to have a canopy - especially in the absense of a porch.

any help greatly received!

thank you

I'm looking to get a canopy as well but so far haven't heard any news of one for the M. Might have to try and see if there is one that's already available that will fit.

hi i have this tent and wanted a canopy too. there is an outwell universal canopy http://www.worldoftents.co.uk/outwell-universal-side-canopy-p-750.html?currency=GBP that i looked into. i found that it will fit but maybe not tight against the tent. i take it you know about having to buy the poles seperatly for the front door canopy?

argos used to sell a coleman canopy that would fit any tent and a few people reccommended that but i can't see it in the new argos book.

we are going to buy the khyam canopied windbreak http://www.outdoorgear.co.uk/eshop.asp?wci=product&wce=51961101&desc=KHYAM+WINDBREAK+AND+CANOPYand use that for cooking under. have a look at it it looks really good!

Thanks wendywoo.

Both look like an option. The windbreak looks fab although I don't know if the shade would be waterproof as it only says it's a sunshade.

yes it does , we are mega impressed with it very strong and very waterproof.  we  erected it with some porch poles and guylines and its a class act.  Somewhere to cook and sit under if  weather not so nice>  But main thing !!  packs into as small bag about 4x 8 inches approx. We though about canopies of all shapes and sizes  but this does exactly the same job -  shelter to cook under , sit under but  not the extra weight and size of canopies .  We set it up with four poles and put windbreak around it  (braw!)

low cost, light  and functional

hi all! its good to see I started something here and I am really impressed with the alternative suggestions - it has certainly encouraged me to think outside the box! garsoo - i would love to see the pictures too if you dont mind. Like YRREG I am very interested by "low cost, light and functional"!
