I am a single mum on a fairly tight budget.  Last year I bought a new tent but soon discovered that I could not assemble it on my own as I am not strong enough. 

I would like ideally 2 berth and living area, but I berth will do, and a static head of about 1700, the prerequisit being I can put it up myself.

Thank you for any thoughts or advice

The Khyam QE system is a breeze to put up single handed. I managed to put up my Excelsior XL on my own in about 20 minutes (excluding pegging it all out), despite being old, fat and having a very bad back! The Classic sounds like it would suit you to a T. They have a lovely big living area and are well made.

They're a bit dear new (they've changed the name of all the models now, and they come with a sig)  but you may be able to find a second hand one.

Hi Sally,

Have a look at these for simple pitching, just bang   Quechua Tents  into google, great web site and the tents look smart and very very simple.

Good luck

Gary

Thank you both!   I will do a little research
