We currently have the bog standard Outwell carpet for our tent which is pretty poor. So I was thinking is the super duper deluxe 3 layer insulated carpet any better?

Comments please?

For the awning we use those ventilated tiles from Aldi, They cost about 12 quid for half a dozen or so, they are about 20 inches square each and fit together like a jigsaw.

They keep your feet nice and warm in the awning and are really comfortable to walk on.

In bad weather you can put awning carpet down on top of them - or underneath come to that.

Best Regards

We had a 3 layer carpet for our tent and thought it was worth every penny, nice and soft under foot and well insulated from the cold, would certainly recommend them, I even started taking a rechargeable Hoover to keep it looking lovely. (OTT)

Just wondering what the basic carpet is like ,we too have a Vermont xlp with the carpet and it is rubber backed and warm. We bought a motorhome now so not needed if you were after one at a good price just give us a shout

I'm intrigued too - we have a 'basic' OUtwell one, and it's a bit slippy (underneath and on the top). A 3-laye one sounds fab.

They're probably like the thick fleecy ones they produced when tent carpets were first introduced...

And the rest! I've just noticed this A Montana carpet now costs £170.99!

i'd expect a whole tent for that!

They still don't look like the 'old' ones, with a heavy non-slip rubberised backing tho'.
