I had a small gap that i used to put the electric lead through - but i would have to thread it through before i zipped up, as there was no chance of getting a plug through once it was done

Sounds faulty to me

Hi

We had a Bear Lake 6 for four years a 2007 model and the zips overlapped were they joined.

As Val said we used to put the electric cable through.

Never noticed any problems as the zips overlapped 6cm doesn,t sound excessive as with the zip system it will never be totally sealed.

Where in the country are you as there are some indoor displays still around you could go and check on a pitched display model just to put youe mind at rest, Don Valley Camping at Doncaster has one pitched at the moment

Definitely have been zipping it on right, with the hooks for the bedroom pods at the back. There are also places where one zip ends and another begins on either side of the tent, which have not gap, just a very small overlap on one side. This is what I'm sure all the joins should be like.

A big thanks to Dave from Go Outdoors, for his further advice - really helpful. Looks like I'll be shopping at Go Outdoors rather than PJ Camping in future.

The space between the two zippers on the back side of the tent always around 6cm. Every big ZIG tent has this.

This gap gives you enough space to actualy connect the zippers.
