Hi All!

I've had the Outwell Georgia XL for a few years now. I absolutely love it but it was always very hard to put up with my wife struggling to help. So we wanted a good sized tent that was easy to put up.

We bought the Hi Gear Kalahari 10 yesterday as it was on offer at Go Outdoors. We probably rushed the decision as the offer ends today and it was a 'Get it now, or never'

Could you let me know what your experiences are with this tent? Is it simple to put up with just the two of us (and the littl'uns running around our feet)?

thanks in advance as always

thanks jeffmasson. I've got high hopes for it.

When i bought the tent, there was two different styles of bags. I picked up the tent with the higher quality thicker more durable materialed bag (a kind of dark green colour), but they had the same tent in a light blue bag made of a similar material to the tent?

The staff in Go Outdoors said there was no difference between the two bags and I'd be better off with the better quality bag. Im just wondering if I've now got a previous years Kalahari 10 and if there was any difference with the new tent if that is the case.

Does anyone have any ideas?

thanks as always

thank you, thats very reassuring to hear. We've only got the tent, not the porch carpet or footprint. That'll probably have to wait for a year or so unless a realy bargain crops up!

We're hoping to pitch it this weekend at my motherinlaws if the weather holds out so we can check it out before our main trip in July.

Thanks again for the advice, its greatly appreciated
