The Quechua are quick and simple tents to erect, and very cosy and dry, we bought one out of our local Decathlon sale for our Daughter who is also a single parent with two small children both under school age.
The problem comes though when she wants to pack it away, due to its 'Pop-up' design, its not very easy to wrestle with it alone to get it into its circular bag, and once it is in, its still quite a large package at around a metre in diameter and too big to fit flat into quite a few car boots, or indeed under the front benches of our caravan, even though the pack is only about 10cm thick.
With hindsight, we wished that we had bought her one of the smaller model Outwell tunnel tents, a mini version of our old Winfield, which was quick and easy to pitch, and very storm proof and dry.
