What do you think of this tent? Outwell Alamosa

[luckiestgirl]

I am SO tempted to buy this tent. It's absolutely beautiful but bloody expensive.

I can't find any reviews. Has anyone seen one/ stayed in one?

In my defence, it's polycotton so will last forever.

I bought an Outwell Ohio XL last year after our family tent ripped on holiday. I got it 2nd hand from Ebay and took it on cub camp. It slept 4 adults for a week in wet wales very comfortably. It's a standing joke in our house that DH won't even entertain the thought of camping but last year I bought some new items which have made camping so much more comfortable. I love my tent but it's a beast to put away. DS and I couldn't get it all back in the bag after the first erection. After camp I got all of it back in including the poles and then DH and I managed to get it out to dry, and put it back with poles and zip the bag up again.
I have an Audi A6 estate and it fills a huge area of the boot but it's worth it. We also have folding camp beds. We have roof bars and a roof box so lots goes on top.
When we went away last year, we took my nephew and both dogs. The car was rammed to the gunnels and I had to drive leaving DH with both dogs by his feet/on his lap as we didn't have room for him to have his seat back like he does to drive (he's 6'4") with 3 kids in the back. The kids had to share the water melon across their laps and were packed in so tight!
