Have just bought a monster tent, an Outwell Yellowstone Falls, but haven't bought footprint and carpets.

Has anybody any recommendations for brands of carpet that are good quality as Ive heard the Outwell ones are not good for the money?

As opposed to the Outwell carpets, we have a couple of Royal carpets fromHere

They're much cheaper, however you have to do your homework with regard to the sizes - they won't give dimensions. If you check out the spec of each tent though you can work it out. You might have to compromise or customise but on the whole they're not bad quality.

Forgot to mention. We had this groundsheet for our Norfolk Lake tent (similar spec to yours), it fitted much better than the Bear Lake one we had used for it, as it went under most of the front kitchen area too.

at the price it's a no brainer IMO!

the latest outwell carpets i bought are bear lake and trout lake carpets and also oakland m and oakland L carpets for the bedrooms of the trout and bear tents.

i have to say the quality is no-where nearly as good as the fluffy fleecy cosy carpet in my friends old outwell nebraska tent.

the new ones i bought are shockingly thin and im sure next years ones will probably just a pattern printed onto a plastic backing if the way they have gone downhill so far progresses any further!

i looked at a hi gear carpet which has been reduced at go outdoors and in complete contrast it was thick and soft and fleecy. - im very tempted to buy it for 29.95 and take it to a carpet place to have cut and the edges finished off for me as its a much nicer quality carpet than the outwells'!. shocking really.
