Sorry holly4, I don't agree.   We bought one of these just before we went on holiday and used it for 2 weeks without any problems.   We used only the guyropes supplied and it stood up to some pretty rough wind and rain no problem.

I have a vango windbreak and I think it is great, it is a bit of a knack getting it up straight and keeping it all level but once up and guyed out I have never had a problem

We have a 6 pole Vango windbreak and once it was guyed out it withstood heavy rain, kids kicking a ball at it and some unfortunate drunk tripping over the guy rope at 2.00 am (after keeping us up for 2 nights previously it was poetic justice )

I brought one of these and hated it! Too many guyropes for my liking, im bad enough at the best of times, with the tent guys, if id used this, someone would have found my trussed up in it, after a late slightly drunken trip to the loo where i would have trip over the guys, landed in a heap and then entangled myself further trying to get out of it LOL, nope gimme the old stripy beach ones that you hammer into the ground anyday!
