Hello, I just bought a gelert beyond zenith 6 tent for £100.

On opening at home 3 poles where bust, and a larger porch pole only had 2 sections, and one is also bust.

The instructions in the bag said 3 red, 3 black, 3 blue and a grey, larger, porch pole (there was some crossing out in permanent pen which indicates the instructions are WRONG)

I got back in touch with the seller and he said he'd find replacement poles.

Does anyone have dimensions of the large porch pole?

Or know where replacement poles can be found for this model (Gelert and Halfords draw a blank).

I can probably struggle to make the blue ones work, but have no idea what is required for the mainly missing grey porch pole.

My kids will be living in the tent for the whole of august so hope to cobble something together either with the sellers help or on my own (once a refund of some sort is established!).

Thanks!

The once reputable name of "Gelert" was bought out by the less reputable Sports Direct, and Gelert are all but no more.
There could be a small chance of getting some specs from Sports Direct...….a very small chance?

you are going to have to make them up yourselves, measure the diameter of the poles along with the length needed, you can usually get hold of packs from the likes of go outdoors or other camping shops very easily, however you may end having to cut a pole to get the final length right and then rethread the elastic back thr. its not a hard job, and would only take about 30 mins or so if that.
