Hi - anyone have one of these or have any opinion of them?

http://www.lidl.co.uk/cps/rde/xchg/lidl_uk/hs.xsl/index_21727.htm

In case the link doesn't work, it's the Lidl tent on sale from Thursday.

Thanks,

Trev

doesn't look like it has sewn in groundsheet i prefer sig, in my opinion they seem to be warmer.i bought a 4 man tent from b&q used it once then upgraded to a icarus 500

Thanks for the replies. Think I'll give it a miss, rather have something that has decent reviews. Lot of Lidl/Aldi stuff is quite good though.

Cheers,

Trev 

My friend has this tent (bought it last year) and it withstood some horrnedous weather last summer - strong winds and torrential rain - without any mishaps.

Yes it is a cheap tent but for the money it is well made, spacious, good HH and will last a few seasons until she can afford to upgrade.

The lack of SIG suited her as she camps with her dogs so it was easy to keep the groundsheet clean.

It took the 2 of us about 30 minutes to pitch but we didn't get a chance for a trial run so it was a bit of a baptism by fire so i think we did pretty well!!

Hi

My brother bought the tent from Lidl last year , not had one problem with it and has camped in all conditions

cheers
