If you were thinking of pitching the Matrix, the Evolva will be easier, as you do not have to contend with the bedrooms whilst pitching the central structure .

It's very simple to put up and straight forward. May not be the quickest tent in the world to put up, but certainly easy to do!

gone for the vango colorado 600 dlx

bit gutted as the matrix x9 looked a cracking tent just maybe issues with the size with a lot of sites

Unlikely you will see one on display now. There was one up on ebay , related to members here , only used two nights .If you are interested, read the Evolva Society thread , put a plea for a sale.
