I don't think it is a bad tent... it's possibly that the one-star people had a duff tent.Out of 34 reviews there are only 3 bad reviews.

marmalize, have a look at the Royal Atlanta 8. We started out looking at the Tigris 800 as we have a 400 and just wanted to go "supersize" for longer summer holidays.

We picked the Atlanta as it is slightly wider, has a light coloured roof,so light and airy inside, and peaks over both doors, not just one.

Just something else for you to look at. We are really hapy with our choice.

Hi,

Dont know if its of any intrest to you, but we have our Tigris 800 in the ads section.

Complete with, extension canopy, footprint, carpet,

Great tent (like the 400, we have one too) ,but we have combined the two and settled on a new 6-7 berth. One of the reviews is ours with pics on our profile.

Vango, had a few issues with quality it seems, and a few 'duffers' made it out , but most very good value for money.

Happy camping.
