Can anyone confirm if the new Vango Killington 600 has 2 or 3 bedrooms. Looking at the Vango website is has 3, but looking at Outdoor Megastore, Outdoorworld, etc..It shows it as 2 bedrooms with a foot print which looks identical to the Diablo 600. Don't know who to trust!

I would be inclined to trust the official Vango website. If the people who make the tents don't know then no-one does. Plus if you check the pitching instructions on the Vango web site the 600 & 900 are the same instructions which makes me think that it is the same as the 900 i.e. 3 bedroom pods.

Hi - i'm pretty sure the 600 has 3 bedrooms - someone with a Kirkwood will know for sure as they are the pre-runner for the Killington.  I think that some websites are using the diablo footprint as they are similar sizing.  You could always ring the websites concerned to double check but i'm sure Vango themselves will know best!

If you know you want the Killington 600, then try the link below. The Kirkwood is identical to the Killington, but is a pre-launch name. Only Outdoor Action has them, and they have already sold out of the 400 and 900. At the moment the 600 is available, and is quite a lot cheaper than you will find the Killington (which they are also selling!) (The diagram shows 3 bedrooms.)

Good luck!

Thanks everyone for the update. I was looking at a replacement for our 2005 Diablo 600 and thought the Killington would have been ideal (easier to pitch mainly). But size is smaller. Oh well! The Montana 6 is still the front runner. Should stop messing around and buy it really, just wanted to wait until I've seen the new 2007 tents. Show at Birmingham NEC in March can't come quick enough!

Thanks again

Have you looked at the Killington 900, muttley? Essentially the same as the 600, only larger pods, so if you like this design surely this would be a good replacement for your Diablo?

I just know I'm going to kick myself for not getting one of those Kirkwood 900's! Anyone got theirs yet, and actually pitched it?
