Bought the Kalahari from Go-Outdoors on a whim, 2 weeks before we went on holiday. We have never had a tent that seemed big enough for our family, 2 adults and 4 children, but by god this one is with room to spare! We had a whole pod to ourselves while the kids had two double airbeds, that just about fit into the larger pod on the opposite side, the smaller was used as storage and a dressing room (how posh?!)

We has every kind of weather thrown at us in the last few days of our holiday and the Kally stood up to it all (including our hysterical kids during a particularly noisy thunderstorm!)

The pockets on the bedroom pods are brilliant for storage, as you can imagine we have a lot of 'stuff' with four kids!

Incredibly pleased with my new baby and can't wait to take her out again!

The tent has 4 bedrooms, not 2 as was mentioned in one of the reviews. It has two inner compartments which each split into a 2 and 3 man bedroom, thereby giving you 2 two-man rooms and 2 three-man rooms. Not too difficult to put up. Worth buying the carpet from Go-Outdoors, usually on sale at around Ł40. Makes a huge difference. Could do with hooks for hanging stuff, but does have about 10 convenient pockets on each of the inner tent walls

We've just had our first week camping in the kalahari 10 we read the reviews but were still sceptical as we got such a good price but they were spot on. We sealed the seams before we used it and then put it up in the rain,we had 24 hours solid rain and NO LEAKS!. We only needed one sleep pod so loads of space and we also got the porch really useful with the rain for the wet stuff and also to cook in when raining (yes, we had other exits open, good ventilation and away from sites) For anyone who is not quite sure we would highly recommend it.

Fantastic. We got an absolute bargain, tent, porch and carpet Ł385. We are yet to holiday in it but have pitched it in the garden and it took 20mins! Easy. You'd be mad not to get this tent in the sale.

We are a family of 4 so will have an abundance of space to use. Our previous tent was an Eurohike Buckingham 8. We thought that one was room lol it seems like a little 2man one now. Like I said fantastic. I couldn't rave about it enough. X

We bought our kally last year having owned a sahara three pod tent which was great but took an age to put up. The children have tried it in the garden and thought it was great, there is so much space and we also bought the porch at the same time so that is even more space as we take every thing with us including the dog, we are looking to get the carpet and footprint as a lot of people have recommended them, so heres to a good summer and many evenings sat in some camp site drinking a good glass of wine or beer and chilling out!

Really pleased either the tent (which we bought along with the porch,footprint and carpet) . May seem ott for two adults and two kids but it means the youngsters can each have their own room and the remainder 2 berth room can be used for storage (ask junk).

Served us well this week when we used it for the first time the week and more than happy with it.

Bought ours last year under the offer at go outdoors. Porch, tent, carpet and footprint for around Ł340. There are 6 of us using the tent 2 adults and 4 kids. Have used the tent once and it lashed it down, and was quite windy, tent stood up to all that was thrown at it. We have our second outing in 2 weeks.

Very roomy inside, with plenty of space for a double airbed in both sides of the bedroom compartments. The living area is huge and does not feel cluttered even with all 6 of us in there.

Tent was easy to put up, takes 20 mins - 30 mins with two of you, had more problems with the porch than the tent.

Highly recommended if there are a few of you and you like your space. We had a horizon 6 before this one, and the tent does feel a lot more secure when pitched. Keep an eye on the prices, they often have this tent on offer with all the associated bits and bobs, really at this price you can't go wrong.

Love this tent.

Its easy to put up, and really spacious. We(2adults, 3 kids, 1 dog)fitted into it with plenty of space. The living area is easily big for a table and chairs, plus the usual fridge/cupboards etc. Add in the carpet (makes a huge difference- do buy the carpet) and you have a very comfortable place to spend an hour an hour or two.

The internal pockets are genius, filled very quickly with kids bits, biscuits, head torches etc.

Hardly stopped raining for our holiday, but no leaks.

Porch was very handy for wet gear storage.

We bought this tent as we have 4 children and plan on more so thought it would be handy having the extra space. We have only used it once but loved being in there that much that our 3 day planned trip turned into 9 days. We had all sorts of weather to hot days to gale force wind which our tent withstood very well. We bought the footprint which is a must in bad weather and we also have the carpet and the porch. We were a bit disappointed with porch in bad weather as it stores water on the top and the wind blows through it really bad, so could do with an extra strap to help hold it down. My husband had to tighten it on several occasions. Apart from that it came in handy for cooking in when the weather was bad, and also used our porta toilet in there of a night for our children.

We bought this tent in May 2010, huge tent with loads of space, it has four bedrooms and we only need three but the other one is excellent for storage of bags/boxes etc. Very easy to put up, on our first ever attempt it took 30 minutes. Great value for money if you buy when in a sale. Selling for around Ł200 now, though we paid Ł360. We have had lots of people ask us about this tent when we are camping and always recommend buying it. Fits in two bags which aren't that heavy and we are going to buy the porch to go with it next. No problems with wind and rain either. All in all, very pleased with it.

Manufacturer's Description

An updated version of Hi Gear's extra large tunnel tent, perfect for relaxed family camping holidays.

The Hi Gear Kalahari 10 Elite is a spacious and stable tunnel-style tent with two large partitionable bedrooms in a face-to-face layout, roomy enough for you, your family and all your gear.

Pre-attached high-visibility guylines, reduced pole sleeves, and sewn-in polyethylene groundsheet make pitching the tent quick and easy.

The bedrooms comfortably sleep five at each end of the tent, and have breathable polyester walls. Bedrooms can also be removed, to give you extra storage space, or room for dirty gear.

The huge living space has two large windows and hanging storage pockets to help keep it tidy, organised and liveable. Multiple vents along the roof help air flow throughout the tent.

The sewn-in groundsheet combined with the fire-retardant polyester flysheet (with 4000mm hydrostatic head) give you a fully sealed and ventilated internal environment, so you'll be completely protected from draughts and sustained downpours. The two doors can be propped and extended out to use for extra shelter from rain or stretching the space out for more room if it's sunny.

Other useful features include the water-repellent zips and an electrical cable access point.
