I have a gelert meridian 10 and would like a porch/extention, anyone have any opinions on what is the best one to go for? does it have to be a gelert or do other makes fit?

How about the High Gear Kalahari porch as you can close up the front. Ideal when cooking..........

It may be a different colour, but this is the best porch in my opinion. The Kalahari is identicle to the Meridian. The Gelert porch is open fronted with no door. Good Luck

Just bought a beyond meridian 10 with a corvus porch - had a practise run at putting it up in the garden before we go to France, and the only way we could get a snug fit between tent and porch was if we positioned the porch so that it covered half the tent window as well (not a disaster, but somewhat inconvenient for opening/closing the window!) - anyone had similar trouble or got any tips please??  Thanks :-)

We have the meridian canopy on one side of our Meridian 10 and the corvus porch on the other. They fit well together, although both obstruct the window.. Only downside is the straps that go over the tent: if you tighten them to reduce wind tunnel effect and get a snug fit to the tent, they tend to exert downward pressure on the tent frame and make indoors a few inches lower for tall people like myself.

We also bought some Kampa Easylock interlocking flooring squares for the porch. These are ideal- they keep everything off the ground, but have holes in them to allow any rain etc to run through and help prevent killing the grass underneath. Really help stop mud coming in the tent.
