Well another sale purchase, 'popped out' and pegged within a minute.
Stood up to light rain and wind without any problems, single skin so suffers dearly with condensation which collects in the middle and drips on you early in the morning.
Taking down the tent took around 3 hours, an hour trying then drive home with it as small as possible to fit it in the car and view a video on utube showing how to do it. But once you know that becomes another quick task.
Well worth the money for quick night out somewhere, fishing trip or even a weekend but I would say that is the most that could be done with this tent.
I wouldn't trust it with heavy rain and wind!

Tent's ok. Very pleased with speed of pitching but found that using pegs supplied it doesn't want to stay flat. Used plastic pegs and no problem. I struggle to get it folded up despite watching the video 500 times! Perhaps I need to practice more.

This is a brilliant idea ruined by the fact that the floor is single skinned and not waterproof.
My daughter didn't sleep in the tent, we just left it up overnight in the garden with a foam camping roll with a sleeping bag on top, and a solar light next to them. It was and had been very dry for over a week yet next morning when I opened up the tent everything that had been in contact with the floor was soaking wet (including my knees when I crawled in to retrieve said soggy items).
World of Camping and Gelert say this is normal as it is a single skinned tent - it is advertised as 100% waterproof.
They recommended putting a groundsheet down first when I complained about this, (this is not mentioned in ay of the adverts or instructions) fine, except if it rains the water will run down the sides onto this, which in turn will soak your bed again!
We now have a fine beach tent, as it is not fit to sleep in - we did away with 'wet nights' many years ago.

Brilliant! It's so quick and easy to erect and pack up, you can use it if you're only stopping for an hour or so for a brew and snack en route! I go camping with pals who have fancy tents - and they're so envious! Especially when it comes to packing-up time - I cxan be off down the road whilst they're still foling up their poles! Johnny

A great little tent, up in seconds and ideal for festivals or for the kids as a pup tent.
Not ideal for the hiker or cyclist due to the size of it when packed away as it may cause some drag.
The tent arrived in good time from the date of ordering and was well packaged. We'd been sent the funky floral design tent, perfect for festivals, the kids , or just if you fancy something different on site. Upon opening the wrapping I found the tent bag to be in the same design as the tent itself, superb!
I removed the tent from the bag and simply removed the strap holding it together and wham, the tent was up instantly ready for me to put into position and peg out, using just four pegs. With the addition of a self inflating air bed, camping has just got much easier and quicker.
The tent we found was spacious enough for a two-berth tent and my two children slept comfortably in there together, both on inflatable mattresses. Along with them were their bags for the weekend, yes a tad cramped, but these tents are perfect for the quick one-nighter or weekends.
The re-packing was the next step, the instructions are clearly marked on the bag and very simple to follow. I will admit that I was not a master on the 1st attempt, but after struggling for the first couple of times, I soon had the knack and had it down to a matter of seconds. Back in the bag and zipped up, ideal!!
The tent easily fited in the boot along with the rest of the gear, and was lightweight and very easy to use. The tent appears very well made for such a cheap purchase, and comes highly recommended.
