We have the aspen and when it comes to bad weather she withstands all that can be thrown at her, high winds and all.

Plenty or room. Just like being at home comes with fitted ground sheet, clear windows. I would not look for another.

Used this tent twice now, excellent size easily fitted 4 chairs and table with room while it was raining, kept dry and didn't move.Colour coded poles but might be hard for 2 people to erect as we luckily had 4.Each door has insect net so you can have air but no moths etc.Would def recommend. Have used this tent in thunder storms and very strong winds and was no problem.

Excellent tent more room than you could ask for we have the porch as well which is ideal for cooking in also wet shoes keeps the rest of the tent spotless. Only down side is putting it up can be a pain, first time one of the poles bent under the weight, pole was replaced and told to erect it a different way to instructions apart from that excellent keeps kids apart at night as well so nearly a peaceful night

I don't want to type a long reveiew about this tent, more a tip to pitching. Hope that is ok.

We have used it twice, and found it to be all we could have wanted.

There are only two of us and we found erecting it difficult the first time we used it last year, when we followed the instructions.

When we went this year for our first week, we thought we could remember how to erect it so just went ahead. Without giving it much thought, (we also have a tunnel tent) we just fitted the roof sections to the leg sections pinned down the back and lifted the whole thing as if it were a tunnel tent. Thirty minutes from start to finish. I think the instructions would be great if there were three people or more, but with only two people we will do it our way in future.

I believe this would also apply to the seven hundred model.
