3 Reviews of the Regatta Hyperdome 6

By: Campnovice Reason: I've used one Made in: 2017 Rating: 1 from 10

I recently used this tent for a weekend and what a horrendous experience it was.

Firstly, it was extremely difficult. The instructions were poor and no guidance meant moving it around once up.

Secondly, the ground sheet doesn't seem to attach well which meant water see dropped from the edges into three ground sheet and then it's in the tent.

Thirdly, the rain comes through the tent where there is stitching.

I would avoid this tent!

I owned one of these for about four years. I swapped my old Millets 3 man tent for this as she needed a smaller tent and I needed a larger one. My first outing using this tent started off as a nightmare. I just couldn’t seem to get the tent pitched. After a couple of hours trying a couple who had seen my vain efforts came over and helped me. The problem with this tent is that you require a minimum of two adults to put it up. As there are no straps to help you pitch it you have to kind of guess when trying to peg it down which normally results in one of the sides sagging. In the four years I had it I never once got it pitched where I was 100% happy. Problem was that I nearly always camp with the children and me as my wife isn’t a keen camper so this was very difficult to pitch with two people let alone me and my 6 year old son at the time. Also I could never manage to get the sleeping pods, poles and flysheet back into the one bag. I had to have two bags to fit it all

On the plus side it was very spacious and there was plenty of room inside if the weather was poor. Also good high roof in living area. Three doors so very cool when weather got hot

Pros - very roomy. With a few modifications keeps dry.

Cons - needs a few modifications in the first instance. Flysheet does not keep the wind out.

For the money, this is a seriously good tent. We bought it as an emergency, as our Outwell Hartford didn't contain poles in the bag and our trip was imminent with no reply from Outwell. We got it half price from Argos' summer sale catalogue (ie Ł99) then used our nectar card which meant we only paid Ł43 for it. Result.

Despite a stiff breeze it was straightforward enough to put up, taking us about an hour or so. Inside the tent is extremely roomy, with a huge porch/living area and two very generous-sized sleeping pods. When they say six man, I actually believe you probably could get six in this tent. Certainly two adults and three children would not find it too uncomfortable. Without taking accurate measurements, I'm sure you could get a double and a single mattress in each compartment.

I am impressed by the tent's ability to keep us dry. After a night of heavy rain there was only one minor leak in a seam around the side door- certainly nothing disastrous. Although, irratatingly, the ground sheet does not quite come up far enough around the edges inside the fly and it did let in, with a couple of puddles in the porch to sort out in the morning. We solved this problem by using a couple of spare pegs to keep the worst offending edges inside the flysheet and it seems to work - we have had rain since and there have been no more puddles (we will try to take some pictures later in the holiday).

Following on from the flysheet not quite reaching the ground, it does make for a draughty experience with no way to keep the heat in. It's not too bad but it should be noted. Saying that the tent itself has not suffered any major issues concerning the cruel, unrelenting Cornish wind and, touch wood, is holding up quite well despite the harsh gusts.
