Tbh I can't see that reading a review of it would make much difference - if you have all the relevant details of size and features etc and it suits your purposes - which it must do as you've just been singing its praises - then does it really matter why or for whom it was originally made?
I did come across this on Amazon -
This review is from: Vango Midas 400 - Moss - 2011 (Misc.)
Having always been against hulking great family tents, I finally relented and agreed to this as a compromise. And I'm very glad I did.
Two sleeping areas either side of a large, standing-height living area makes for a really good layout, while both side flaps are shielded with a zip-down insect net. Combined with the integral ground sheet, this meant we were able to avoid getting bitten too badly, despite being in the highlands at the height of midge season.
Frankly, with a toddler in tow, I think a week away would have been a real struggle in our old tent (wonderful and light though it is). And the wee man enjoyed having his own room.
Very easy to pitch and my only gripe (apart from having to buy a family tent at all) was how difficult it was to pack away again. I'm sure it gets easier with practice, but some packing suggestions would have been useful.
I have to agree that it isn't easy to get back into its bag but it can be done if folded and rolled properly, though I think it's the case with most tents that they never go back the way they came out!
