7 Reviews of the Gamma 350

By: Tentadventurer Reason: I own(ed) one Made in: 2005 Rating: 7 from 10

Great tent for the price. You could actually sleep 3 or 4 in this although we use as a 2 man with lots of space. A reasonable living space. Has all the extras you would expect from a Vango such as window curtains. Certainly one of the larger 3/4 man tents available. Only downside is lack of SIG however Vango market it as a 2 season tent so not an issue if you're a warm weather camper.

There is a great little patio area to sit in. It keeps the bugs out. We needed an extra sleeping bag though. It easily fit 4 people comfortably.I would recommend this tent to anyone.It was easy to put up and take down. We did it in about 10 minutes.It can be a bit of a struggle to put away though. We had heavy rain but the tent held and didn't leak.

This was our weekend tent. Loved the tent for the two of us. We never cooked inside but proped open the side door to make a shelter it worked well.

It coped well on a 4 day trip in May to wales with heavey rain and winds(with a ground frost in the mornings). We stayed dry and comfy.

Really easy to pitch and put away.

Only reason why we changed to a bigger tent we wanted to be able to stand up inside.

We've had our Gamma 350 for 7 years now and it's still going strong. It suits us as a couple, but I think we could get three in the bedroom. We like the ease of putting up and the quality. It's never leaked and has kept us happy in all weathers.

We've had 4 sat round a cool box on camping chairs playing cards whilst it rained outside and whilst a tight squeeze it was a happy few hours.

We've never cooked in the tent, but I'm sure you could if required.

We like the secondary tent as a sleeping area/bedroom and the fact that it has the double door for airing.

It always goes back in the bag (although with a bit of a struggle sometimes) but there is a knack that has to be learned.

Only down side with the tent was that our first one came with a broken zip. Something we didn't discover until our first trip. However it was replaced with the one we have had for 7 problem free years. Vango even got involved when the company we bought the tent from refused to exchange because we'd used it. In the end they did exchange, but not before Vango threatened to stop supplying them. I still proudly keep a copy of that email! Thanks Vango!

Great tent from a great manufacturer.

I decided on this tent after a lot of comparison with others, and chose it because it offers a lot of space, is fairly light and good quality.

I have only used it when touring (on my own) and find it easy to put up, and like the extra stowage space at the end. I never really cook in the tent, but with a low-level chair & small gas burner the 'porch' is more than adequate for a relaxing break -even when a little damp!

An excellent addition to our tent collection. Comfortable for 2, but we have also managed two kids in the bedroom and an adult in the porch in minus 5!

Four adults with table and chairs in the porch is a squeeze but it kept us dry.

The numerous guylines are beter quality than a lot of other tents and the groundsheet pegs are very good, just wish I could get some more.

It even fits in the bag!

We love our Vango! It's very practical and goes up no problem at all. The quality is excellent. It is usually sold as a 3.5 person (messy!) tent and is ideal for 2 people. The downside, as with any smaller tunnel tent, is that it isn't really practical for cooking or for sitting in (it's shorter than me!). If the weather's good or if you're touring a lot then you won't notice so much. We have had it up in all sorts of weather and it's coped brilliantly. The inner tent has a double layer door - fabric and bug mesh, handy for airing as well as a bathtub groundsheet. It packs up really small (hardly more space than a sleeping bag or chair in the boot), usually fits in its bag and is very light.
