Hi we are looking for our first tent and are thinking about buying the Vango Tigris 800. I have read most of the reveiw on here about them but is there any thing better for the same amount of money.

Hi,

We have the Tigris 800 and have 2 adults + 3 kids. The layout is great and it is a doddle to put up. We also looked at the Khyam Ontario 8 and Gelert Horizon 8, but chose the Vango as we have had an Aspen in the past.

We did have a horror story (search the forum) but generally the tent should be perfect. I do feel it needs the Tunnel Extension (not canopy - a million posts on here regarding this!) if you want a separate area to cook in as you will have all four bedrooms in use which cuts down on your living area.

Sorry the Hijack this post but is it possible to use the 4 man room without the divider at the end of the tent (ie the none opening end rather that the 2 two man rooms? We want to use the big room only but would also like the end large door open?

Thanks

Yes you can. We use this and have a double bed and a travel cot in the one big room.

Oh, word of warning! The big room is supposed to go at the end with the big door although it will fit at either end.
