We used our new tent for the first time this May Banh Hol that has just gone and absolutely loved it. Not too difficult to put him (must be not to bad as hubby and I didn't argue - but then we didn't have the kids with us which is always a help). We loved the space and everything about it.

The main problem we encountered when it came to de-camping. We took all poles and pegs out and then tent collapse. We folded the front porch onto to the rest of the tent and proceeded to fold. This is where the problem lies - even with the inner doors open we couldn't get the air out and couldn't get it rolled up very small. Had great difficulty in getting it into the bag and definitely couldn't zip it up. So what are we doing wrong???

We have vermont L and look like a pair of raving loons when we do this -but it works.

Take poles out and leave doors unzipped, put all excess material onto the tent so you have a rectangular shape to work with.

Fold front to middle then back to middle - roll about on it to get the air out.

Keep folding like this and rolling about until you have the width of the bag - From memory takes 4 folds.

Roll long rectangular shape pushing air out as you go along,

should pop in bag no problem!

see easy !! Em
