Hi - I see its your first post so welcome to UKCS.
A few more well know makes are Coleman, Royal and Wynnster. As Andi said there are lots of displays around at the moment and you can only really get a feel for a tent once you've seen it up.
Avoid buying cheap new tents off of ebay as there has been a few disaster stories on here. You can pick up some good 2nd hand bargains on there though just make sure you stick to the well known makes.
The tent review section of this site is also an excellent resource to get feedback from actual users.
Good luck with your search
lol this is bad but i can also vouch for the ebay specials..£100 for a dome used twice then binned, still have all the guys as spare probably worked out £5.00 each!!
