2 Reviews of the Denver 6

By: Evilleedna Reason: I own(ed) one Made in: 2016 Rating: 9 from 10

This is a magnificent tent, it’s large, seemingly well constructed, proven waterproof (by us, in temperate rainforest!) and perfect if you are away with the family and it rains, you’ve got plenty of space to hang out and hang stuff to dry. There is nothing I would change about the design and it's far better thought out than any of the tents I could find in North America, and why I was happy to pay so much in shipping.

My issue with Outwell in general though is that they do not provide small off-cuts of matching fabric to quickly and discreetly fix any tears, when I contacted them about his they said I would have to purchase a repair kit from an Outwell dealer with - I assume - little guarantee of a fabric match, especially if a few years have lagged.

This is the first of 4 tents I’ve owned that didn’t come with a small repair kit to make quick and discreet fixes, and about this and the other Outwell products I own I now wonder what else they may have skimped on?

We purchased this tent August 2016 to replace out 10yr old Outwell Vermont and used twice in the first month.

The old tent wasn't stopping the rain anymore, the ropes were starting to fall apart, and it was a bit bulky, so time to look for a new one.

What we love about the Denver is the door at the front is vertical and covered, the only annoyance being the small step, but this does help to keep things out.

It is very waterproof, we were worried the first night about water inside, but this turned out to be just condensation.

The door mesh screens are excellent for keeping the flies out, and the inside temperature cooler.

The size of this tent is great for our family of 4, with plenty of room inside for the rainy days. An event shelter could easily be added to the front for extra shelter, but we are happy with our cooker & a table outside under the Porch. It's also a great area to leave the shoes!

We did have to add a groundsheet for the porch area as an extra, so as to cover up the strap which could be a trip hazard, and make the area more usable.

The quality of this tent is what really decided it for me, and it hasn't disappointed.

CampingWorld have been great. Fast delivery, apart from one item we had to chase. Also the tent came with a small hole in the ground sheet of the tent due to damage in transit. They were happy to replace the tent, but I was happy to patch it (at my suggestion) so they quickly sent a patching kit free.

On day 2 it was discovered that one of the fibreglass pole sections had split, so I had to use the one spare which came with the tent and was easy to do. On informing CampingWorld, and providing pictures of the damage they were onto Outwell and we soon had a complete replacement pole, with lots of segments, so I am very happy that we'll be fine in the future.

I was surprised at how easily the pole broke though, especially as Outwell boast at how much stronger they are than standard black glassfibre, but I honestly can't tell the difference. They look like they should be stronger, but I don't think they are.

We purchased a package for Ł570 which included a carpet and footprint groundsheet along with the tent, and these really do make the whole experience nicer (shoes off inside, and no mud on the tent when packing away).

This tent is a definite 9 out of 10 from me, as even with all the minor hassle we had smiles on our faces the whole time, lots of positive comments from fellow campers, and we could see the overall quality of this tent easily with all our camping experience.

Even packing away was a joy with the oversized bag!

The only mark being lost due to the pole breaking.

I would happily buy this again if I had to.
