Always looking for space saving ideas, I was wondering if anyone has bought one of these folding windbreaks?

Looks very similar design to some we have just bought from sunncamp. The bag contains a windbreak sheet and then the same design poles as tents that fold up and pegs. Very good space savers. We paid £24.99 for ours from outdoor kit. Love the way they pack away into the neat little bags.

ooo I didnt know vango did a folding one.....

we wanted a blue windbreak to match the tent  but have read so many bad reports about the big brand name ones we were just going to stick with the cheapy stripy ones, this one seemed like an added bonus as it folds up small.

Would agree here! Always found it ironic that I could put up a Khyam 16 man Rigipod on my own, but it always took 3 of us to wrestle with the matching windbreak!!

We've got the Khyam one and never had a problem with it, paid £20 last year so yours looks like a real bargain.

Cheers Paul.
