As reported on the Evolva Society thread my overall appraisal (for that is what this thread is called after all!) is a good tent.
Absolutely no leaks despite the downpour we had alll day Wednesday.
Space is fab and was set off nicely by my Outwell Minnesota carpet.
Pitching was a bit of a struggle but taking down and putting away was no problem.
On the downside, the front door is a poor design, but you will all know about that as my reporting of its falling inwards into the tent has started the pursuit of a canopy that might fit. Also zips do catch on the zip storm covers far too regularly.
Worst news is my broken zip pull (sheared off completely when fixing CA to tent) and the damage to the seam on the front door left hand wing guying point where a 6" section has torn away from the fabric.
I am hoping for a repair, as Highbridge Caravans have no more in stock. If that can't be done I will have to say goodbye to my Evolva after just one use and buy something else with the refund.
Will keep you posted. If I do end up having to part company with the tent I will have an unused Link Annexe for sale!
