i think the bl6 looks better also not sure i like the light colour for showing marks

Depends on the quality of the poles, 'canvas' and ground sheet

no side bars for strength

Weighs less as well

thats one good looking tent,but dont expect outwell owners to agree, they seem to thing all vangos are of inferior quality,dont know why.

we've had plenty of vangos and plenty of outwells over the years and each tent has brought it's experiences.  We even tried to see a Vango Zanzibar when we were looking for a polycotton tent but couldn't find anywhere that had one pitched and I like to see a tent pitched before I buy so ended up buying the BL6.

P.S. I did recommend the Vango Icarus 500 to my friend when she was looking for a tent so we don't think the vangos are inferior
