Hi,

http://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/outwell-nevada-m-5-person-family-tent-p261506

Specs say:
Flysheet Hydrostatic Head (mm): 3000
So it's not Y2012 as Y2012 model is with 4000mm.
Right?

Just bought it and not sure if it's 2010 or 2011 model.

How do I know?
How do recognize that my tent has wind stabilization system?
What are the difference from 2012 model except the color and outtex 4000?

Its neither its made exclusive for GoOutdoors, you wont find it on Outwells website so it is what it is a 2013 model. No you shouldnt be worried about the 3000HH its fine, the wind stabilisation system wraps round the tent pole is joined with a velcro strip and the guyline is attached to it. I wouldnt worry about any of the details as I have had Nevada M with both 3000 and 4000 HH and with and without wind stabilisation and they have both been fine.

What does the bag say 3000 or 4000...?

The Outwell Nevada changed to Green this year. As Arsenaldes has mentioned the Mocha colour scheme is now exclusive to Go Outdoors.

To be honest you won't find any difference in the hydrostatic rating 3000 or 4000. I had an old Nevada M from 2009 and upgraded to the 2012 version. I found more differences in the actual design but not the fabric.

Wind stabilisation: these are just velcro ties around the guy lines which attach the flysheet to the tent pole.

It's strange that this is a 2013 model while it has only 3000mm of outtex. I thought that newer models have 4000mm and not less. But if it's no difference - that's OK.

-> arsenaldes:

1) How do I know for sure if it's a 2013 model with just an exclusive mocca color? Are there any differences between older models and 2013 (except Outtex)?

2) It differs from 2011 or 2012 model because it has a mocca roof. Older models have grey one (here: http://www.outwell.com/imagecache/2012/Outwell/Telte/DeLuxe/110034V12_01_NevadaM_OUT12.tif_61.jpg).
It worries me a little because it might be a bit dark inside because of the dark roof.

-> mcguire6078:

1) The bag says 3000. Actually not the bag but some papers attached to it.

2) Yes.. velcros of the stabilization system are in place. So it's OK.

1. Because its made exclusively for GoOutdoors and has the Mocca living area roof which non of the previous years models have had.
2 With 5 massive windows the only time it will be dark in the living area is if you close all the curtains
1. GoOutdoors spec says 3000HH more than adequate for European camping
2. You have the wind stabilisation system not that it really does a lot.
Sorry to sound rude but youve bought a tent which seems to be exactly as described on the website so no deception has taken place if youre not happy Go Outdoors do a 28 day returns policy I believe but really you are worrying about nothing.

I think it's wrong of Go to sell this tent as an exclusive with a different spec to the same tent sold previously with the same name. However, you can tell the year of manufacture by looking inside the right hand bedroom pod... there should be a label which will indicate the year so you can make reassure yourself that it's not an old stock tent :-D
