hi i need some help new to camping i have just bought an easy camp boston 400 and i would like a canopy to fit the front the size is width 390cm height 210cm.

I have noticed that a vango large canopy may fit it but i want to make sure before i buy one or my wife will kill me. So if any one can help me or even tell me what other make might suit i can get the one from easy camp but it does not have side's. Also can any one tell me how to get the sewn in ground sheet to lie stright around the edges of the inner tent mine is rounded right up the wall have looked on web sites at pictures of it and there's is fitted ok as i said new to all this camping but enjoying it.

thanks again

Hiya - I'm in Northern Ireland too! Anyway congrats on your new tent.

I'm not sure about which canopy is suitable, if you could post the details about the height and width of the front of the tent I might be able to figure out one or even be able to advise on an alternative.

That's strange about the groundsheet not lying straight - have you taken any pictures of that?

I've been looking for info for my Outwell Toronto 600 with no luck until Shirleys was kind enough to point out that the Boston 600 is the same.

I came across this canopy which according to the website is suitable for both the Boston 400 and 600.

Hope this helps.
