I bought one from a friend of my daughters which was a replacement for a leaking one and was brandnew and unused ,we realised it was far to big and sold it for what we paid.The guy that bought it travelled up from newcastle as it was only £250. First time he used it, it leaked all over the place,eventually he managed to get a brandnew replacement with the information we supplied,if not we would have given him a full refund as we would not knowingly sell faulty goods.The 2nd replacement is ok..thank goodness.I cannot understand why Outwell tents are so expensive and of such poor quality.

I have used Vango for many years and quite honestly have never had an issue,there was a problem last year with leaking tents and Vango actually posted on this site while Outwell stayed mum....I have 5 Vango and several other tents and use them all at various times of the year..
