Having read a few good reports on here about this tent I have finally taken the plunge :)

Think I picked a bargain : )

If it's a 2009 model then it is a bargain but if it is a 2008 model then it is a great bargain - the 2008 model is better due to three separate bedrooms

I did email them about this and was told that it is a new 2009 model as only the 2007 and 08 models came with the 3 bedrooms and that to stop the price of the tent going up too much this year they made the bedrroms the same. I am happy with this arrangement as only going to use the other side for storage or dining room anyways : )

Just looking at the other stuff on offer from them...Anyone have any reviews on the Alfresco cooker??

Give the tent a good check over (as you would anyway) as I had a few issues with a batch of Ontario's early this year... the stitching on the webbing points was terrible, one even had the wrong webbing attachment sewn on.

Just a heads up... but I'm sure you'll be fine.

Planned for next year, hopefully!

Summer Solstice wild camp.

Chilled in a Field, July.

Crantock, August. Fouth year with the fantastic Quechua Base Seconds 4.2!
..... and the odd night wild camping in my Argos 1 man tent...

We have the 2007 Ontario 8 and think it's a fab tent - easy to pitch and acres of space.

Enjoy!!!!!

Yes

It has 2 very large bedrooms at either end with a divider in the middle of each one so it makes 2 large double at either end.
