We have been looking for a quick erect tent for camping from our car, were we may stop for two days before moving on.
We came across this on amazon, that lead us to the makers
As I don't know how to put a link on would some more knowledgeable member please do it for me.
This is the AD http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZOU54H86CY
We have read reviews and they recommend the Ali poles over carbon.
This is sure to be our next tent.
Vic.
That ad wont work for you tube But this will work I hope

Is this them here.. Base Seconds according to the Decathlon website they are available (Surrey Quays £159.99)..?

Just checked Ebay and they are selling for more than the shop price, why would this be..? Deacthlon tents come with a two year warranty if bought direct and they deliver for £14.99 (high delivery price).

Just checked and the following stock should be available (not sure how reliable Decathlon web stock levels are)

Surrey Quays      2
Stockport     1
Sheffield     7

I've already got 3 of them - bought them when they were £39.95 I've only used one so far - they make ideal cooking tents

Totally agree with the above, for a pop up they will take a hell of a beating from the weather, we had torential rain and high winds the second time we had ours up...not a single drip inside...you may however need the waterproofs when you venture outside the tent

We sold ours along with our 4.2 (they attached to together brilliantly)...big mistake, we've now bought another and wont be making the same mistake again...in fact like Val we may buy several and retire on the proceeds later wheh they leap in price again.
