I am looking at a new smaller tent maybe a 4 man. The two i have got my eye on are evo 4, which has good reviews, but the other one is a coleman deluxe 4, which hasnt any reviews at all. I am only 5.0 tall and want one that i can put up on my own or if my daughter comes along she can help. Has anyone got any suggestions of a easy tent with plenty of room (the dog comes too) in both the bedrooms and the front bit. Must have SIG.... Any ideas with be taken on board.

Thank christina xx

One of the Vango Icarus tents or Kampa's Bude 4?

Another vote for the Licata 400.
I bought it as our weekend tent as I wanted a tent I could put up myself (I'm a short, unfit mum of 3!) but which still had plenty of room for me and 2 youngest boys - this one fitted the bill perfectly.

If you search the Net you can find it for less than £100 - Bargain!!

how about a Quechua 4.1?  it's a pop-up so dead easy to put up and down on your own but has full head height in the "living" area - you can also add the base units to give you extra room when you need it.

Thank you all, I looked at the quechua 4.2 and the kampa, but the others i havent seen, but will have a look around. Off to towsure this weekend for a look too.

Thanks again

We just got the Outwell Virginia 5 as weekend tent, it's stocked by Yeomans only at £159.99.

might be worth a looking as it is very easy to put up and is a good size.

I have taken a liking to the coleman coastline 4 deluxe. Its a camperlands for 129.99.

Which i think is pretty reasonable. Off to towsure in the morning to see if they have it on display. I know its not out in camperlands yet (unless they have put 1 up this week)

I may just come back with something i havent even thought about lol.

Let you all know how i get on. Wish there were more reviews on the Coleman, i will ask the advice at towsure and the probability of me putting one up alone.

Watch this space!!!

Thank you for all your help xxxx
