Hi,
We've just been away for our first family camping trip with our Sprayway Valley 8 tent. Overall we're really pleased with the tent. We even managed to pitch it in a near gale of wind! However, it didn't matter how we tweaked the pegs and guys, the front doors would not go any lower than about 5 inches from the ground. All the other sides of the flysheet were down to just above the ground. Will the flysheet stretch with use and come further down? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Ended up speaking to Outdoor World where we got the tent from and sending some photos. They said it looked like it had a problem and exchanged it the next day for a replacement. Have to say, their customer service was excellent!
No time to try it out this weekend due to severe gales and torrential rain!!
Steve
