Hi, to all the lovely Marisa owners out there

Just wondering if anyone has actually used the pole in the middle bedroom as a wardrobe and how much you've actually hung up? I'm just a bit wary of using it for too much I case it damages the tent so just wondered if anyone had done it

thanks

Thanks Cindy. I bought one of the cotton shelving things (bargain £3 from Asda) that you can hang from the pole but think I'll just lay it along the floor instead - sure someone else on here does the same thing.

Hi,

Have never used ours either - we have the Maritsa 500, and we unzip the middle bedroom and one of the doubles to make a master suite

All our clothes then go in the other bedroom!

Hi, don't use it. We made that mistake in our Marista 500 and the bedroom hanging points went ping ping and that was the end of that! That was with 1 bath towel so not a good idea.

Hello, yes I have used the hanging pole, I have had about 5 coats hangers with clothes on, and one of the hanging organiser things for jumpers etc, no problems.

We have a Vango Monde Verde and we use the hanging rail all the time. I've had about 10 coat hangers on it with clothes on plus a damp towel drying and the only thing that's ever happened is during a very windy day, when the black cap came off the end of the pole, it detached from the hooks and everything slid off!!!

I use the hanging rail on ours... I have a Coleman hanging shelf thingie which I use for loo roll/flash wipes/baby wipes so they're handy for the Kampa khazi (which lives in the middle room) and I also take a few coat hangers for coats and anything else which needs hanging up - everything else clothes wise lives in holdalls

We have never used ours either as we have the 3 and 2 as one big bedroom and store the clothes in the other bedroom, You would of thought it would of been better to put the hanging rail in the separate bedroom.
