Hi, looking for reviews, and helpful tips on how to get a good pack up size.
Plenty on the 800 but rather sparse re 500
Thanks

Hi there, I would suggest that most tents pack the same way. I also fold towards the values to allow air our and I also walk along each fold I do starting from the bed end to the door end to get the air out. I do this with my shoes off by the way. Or get the kids if you have any to roll along it. They love it. Then when all folded roll from bed end to the door.
I wanted to also ask about your tent I have been looking at the same one but not seen one on display only one line and wasn't sure about the size of the bedrooms. As they don't open up into one was the biggest one roomy . There is only me and my hubby normally and I like to open the bedroom right up into one but this one is separated and wasn't sure if there was still plenty of room with a double air bed in it. Can you let me know. Thanks
