We chose this tent because we liked the layout and space inside, even though it looks a bit like an Anderson shelter from the outside.
The two 3 berth inners have been more than adequate for us and our two children, but wouldn't like to try and fit anyone else in though.
We've had no problems with leaks and have treated it regularly with fabsil. The light inside is good with all those windows, and being able to take the front panel off completely has been a real boon in hot weather (not this year obviously).
It is very straightforward to pitch & strike, and it all fits back in the bag too!
The only drawbacks are: not being able to cook indoors (as with all polyester tents),only having two bedrooms so all storage is either in living area or in bedrooms with us, and the noise of the fabric when it is windy or rainy. For these reasons we are now upgrading to a Sunncamp Grange canvas frame tent, but in terms of value for money, and practicality for a small family this tent was ideal for us at the time.
We loved this tent.

We are a family of 4 that believe you can camp in any conditions and we have. Snow, howling gales and driving rain - still the tent stood up to all conditions. We now have a trailer tent due to being flooded this year, but still the tent is in good condition due to the abuse we put it under. Great buy and would recommend it to anyone.

A good tent which we bought as a week end tent to suppliment our large holiday tent, (used approx: a dozen times)
Sleeping pods are spacious and plenty of room to stand.
(though we only sleep 4 in it)
The living area is spacious,and as the sides are almost vertical very little space to head height is lost at the sides.
Pitching is fairly easy though first front end first pole to place under tension can be a little tricky,
No problems with seam leakage and it has had a good test in a week of torrential rain and floods.
Only minor gripes would be , the aluminium stabilising pole running along the tent each side could be better attached as it tends to dislodge in buffeting winds ( incidently puncturing the pod fly screen).
The split gound sheet to enable you to have the door in the back position giving a porch means that in wet weather you have a gap in the ground sheet and water seeps through hence wet feet. We have never felt the need to have a smaller living space and a porch preferring to have the door in the forward position, hence the movable front panel is a bit of a gimmick.
Though all said and done it is a well made tent with plent of pocket storage space.

We love our tent, easy to put up, and has stayed up and dry in many a storm! Spacious inside and plenty of room in the bedrooms although there are normally only 4 of us staying in it.
Room to put fridge, table and chairs in the living area when the weather dictates that you can't sit outside.

Cant fault it - takes a bit of getting up perfect but once you have the knack its easy and quick - we pitch front to back - side door can leak through bottom of the zip is the only down point SIG is brilliant

Used for 1 time found it easy to erect but as novices at camping made some errors which we learned from. Practice will make perfect. I think that the tent would be better in two bags rather than one heavy one

We are about to get another tent as we have had a couple problems with this tent. The skylights have leaked a bit despite all our efforts with the seam sealant. Also find it's very drafty in the main living area so we are going for a SIG tent. However on the plus side it is very spacious and great to live in, if it's not raining. This week it has also stood up to force 7 gales. It is very easy to put up as well. However it has stood us well for the last 3 years camping - we just want to upgrade a bit.

Great tent, easy and quick to pitch (less arguments and threats to kill your other half!) Friends have just sold their tent to buy one of these, very impressed.

What a great tent!
There's plenty of headroom (and I'm over 6ft)with plenty of space in the lounge area for when the weather does its worst. Its quick and easy to put up which helps to reduce frayed tempers and the risk of arguments! I would definitely recommend this tent

We love this tent!
Previously, we owned a large and heavy frame tent. I thought that we may not feel as secure in this but I feel just as snug and safe inside this tent.
There is plenty of headroom for the 6ft Husband, and space for table and chairs for when the great British weather is not at it's best!
Best of all, it is very easy to pitch/strike the tent, an absolute must after a long drive!
