This Is My Tent, Show Me Yours

[Amy Lawn]

I have what is basically a waterproof coffin. I am content.

[Chimps in Balaclavas]

I've got a Gelert Cabana, which everyone keeps telling me is ugly but I quite like the oddness of it (Mine is grey though, none of those terrible clashing colours and prints)

At least you can stand whilst washing your nutsack.

I like the look of those but then I like the strange and different.

I'm going old school this year,it arrived today,bought it from Ebay £35 second hand,its old stock that had been in a warehouse for 40 years,I'm going to put it up tonight.

I probably bought a bag of dust.

Its a Vango force ten mrk3.

Did you opt for a canvas one after having one last year (not so much an oven in the morning)?

Edit: Just read your next post, I don't blame you the canvas tents are friendlier in the sun.

New tent for this year. Nervous.

[Chimps in Balaclavas]

I'll be in this badboy this year, a Coleman instant. It takes less to a minute to erect... heavy as fk though.

Eureka El Capitan Air Control 3. Perfect tent.

its the pop300 DLX, 3 man pop-up with porch and separate inner flysheet.

I got it to replace my Lichfield sauk (the infamous double dome boob tent) which gave up after 3 years of use. It was awesome but a little bit thin and had leakage issues if it wasn't erected tightly. This one has a smaller porch but looks a little sturdier.

Nice, I've got the Dart 300 DS. This looks like a bigger porch though

Instant really?

[monkey1989]

My tent is a piece of shit , getting tent envy

[Chimps in Balaclavas]

Instant really?

Whoops I liked your post instead of pressing quote lol ... it comes folded up and you pull each corner out, then it folds back on itself and you pull each pole out like you would when extending an umbrella. I bought the cheaper 'Tourer' version and tested putting up and it really did take about a minute. I opted for that version instead & sent the other back though as I wanted my own bedroom.

New this year. Looking forward to being able to get dressed in the morning standing up!

Aye the DLX's are the same as a DS just with a bigger porch, and I think the pops are just the newer darts and almost the same.

I have a Vango Beta 450. Great tent, has done me proud for various festivals/camping trips since 2008:

Won't be using it this year, as camping with a mate from Cardiff. He has a six berth, 2 bedroomed tent that we will be sharing between two. Added luxury, as his mates who are getting to site earlier than us will also be putting up the tent.. I feel very lucky haha:)

What tent is it? Loving it

[kaytee...]

Ended up buying another new tent this year, Vango Berkeley 400.

Only two of us staying in it and I've never had a problem putting up dome tents so having one I can stand up in is a proper luxury.

I think it's a 2012 model, I bought mine new from ebay.

[upshitcreek]

Don't have a clue mine give up last year and not got a replacement yet, had my eye on this: http://www.decathlon.co.uk/vango-da-vinci-400-tree-id_8315729.html

Any opinions???

You can't go wrong with a Vango m8, they probably do the best tents. I gave my red and black 1 away a few years ago, I can't find that tent anywhere now and I've regretted it since.

The finest £50 I've probably ever spent - lasted 5 festivals and several camping trips including a winter in Snowdonia. Amazing tent.
