Used the Khyam Ontario 8 for he first time last weekend in the new forest. Was really pleased with it. Especially with the carpet. My dog ripped the flysheet with his paw (annoying) but we shouldn't have let him touch it.
Putting up and taking down was ok, bag is a tight fit but we have managed it everytime so far (practice runs in garden. There is loads of room and seems quiet secure. Could have done with some hardcore pegs though, but that wasn't the tents fault, more the campsite.

We wanted to upgrade to a more roomier tent than our previous Coleman Ridgeline & one with a SIG, & after looking at many reviews we went for the Ontario 8. It meets our requirements exactly for a family of 4 and we love it!
Easy for 2 people to erect with the bonus of not having to place fly sheet first, took about 45mins inc. Pegging out. The standing room it gives in both the main living area & the bedrooms make it spacious. We used our double Raised Aerobed in the main bedroom and still had room on each side of the bed to move & store bags. The children like the idea of sleeping separately, again with plenty of room but also the separate pods will also fit a double airbed. We also have the footprint which helps with pegging out & added insulation. Included with the tent was the zip-up porch, useful for storage, sitting out of the wind and kitchen purposes - although we did find the porch a little unstable in very strong winds. The tent withstood some heavy rain one night which we hardly even noticed, no leaks or draughts & didn't rock once.
At first we had problems with getting it back in the bag but with practice it has got easier and bag it with bungee grips.
Hard to beat for value and a neat tent, will fit on most pitches due to tunnel design. Highly recommended

Our first tent so nothing to compare against but have been away in it twice now and had no problems at all.
Very quick and easy to put up and take down and a really good family tent with loads of space inside to sit when it rains. The carpet is a must-have but I would think carefully about the additional porch before buying. I helped a friend try to put his up and we actually gave up when we saw how little extra it would give for the massive effort it took to put up!
Have now given up all hope of ever getting the tent all back in the bag and will get another bag for the poles, pegs and internal pods just for sanity's sake but I guess that may be common to a lot of other tents too.

Put this up on my own in the garden in no wind and no rain. Needed a second person to help when had to put this up in the pouring rain and the third time it was windy so needed a second person again. So have had both heavy rain and strong winds and the tent is still surviving, as are we, it hasn't out us off.
Bought an extra groundsheet which helps when marking out where it will be placed. Also the carpet is well worth having.
Nearly managed to put it back in the bag on the last trip, have managed it when we got home.
Very spacious tent, no leaks etc. Our first ever tent and it has proved to be a great but/family tent.

Got one online for £125 as it sells as a factory second. Couldn't see any problem with it once we put it up and used it for the first time this weekend. Very straightforward to both pitch and then take down. It is massive too and easily took 4 kids, me and my wife. Would thoroughly recommend this tent for someone looking for a big family tent. Have given it 8 just cos I haven't yet had the chance to see how it goes in heavy rain or high wind.

Excellent Tent. Love the sowed inner floor, easier to put up and warmer too.
I am such a dumbo when it comes to tents, but this one for the size of it, is so easy to put up.
We got back from a weekend away and one morning was heavy rain and very windy, the tent managed that very well, no leakages.
We used it a few times last year too.
We cant wait to go again, lovely spacious tent. We use the main pod, 1 king size bed and 1 double bed, both fit easy.

Bought this tent yesterday and put it straight up when we got home. Can't believe how easy this tent was to put up - took us about 40 mins without properly reading the instructions and just going from the basic instructions from the salesman!
We slept well - only woken by the dawn chorus at 4am! But can't blame the tent for that.
We bought the extra ground sheet as well (to help protect the SIG from stones and mud), but found it useful to show where the tent was going to fit in the garden.
Have already booked our first trip next weekend.

I have just bought the 2008 model and I love it. We have just come back from a weekend away. There were 8 of us. 4 Children in the big main pod and 2 adults in each of the 2 small pods.
The tent was very quick to erect. We also bought the sun porch which took longer to erect than the main tent!
It rained overnight on our first night and there were no leaks. The bedroom pods are roomy I love the standing height.
I would recommend this tent to anyone. Hubby even managed to get it back into the bag on the first attempt!

We love this tent. We are a family of 5 (3 children under 12yrs). There is lots of space in sleeping areas and more than enough space in the living area, even with all three bedrooms being used. Fairly straight forward to erect (a min of 2 adults) took us about 40mins. We managed to put back into the bag.1st time too! Lots of extras to buy ie ground sheet, carpet, sun porch and wind breakers.
Great value for money.
This tent is perfect for our needs, long weekends away with family and friends.

First tent we have owned And we LOVE it! Plenty of room, bought an awning and carpet this made it very comfortable. The awning was great for cooking and leaving wet boots etc. The carpet made it snug and protected the groundsheet. Couldn't get it back in the bag though!
