Any opinions on these, esp how they stand up to wind & rain in quite explosed areas? DD (12) keen to replace ageing but bargainous Milletts tent with one of these. Would just be her and maybe one other 12 y.o. in there so size not really an issue.

We have one as do most of our camping friends now and our experience is that they stand up to pretty much whatever the weather throws at them - thunder storms, the lot. Not totally sure about strong winds in very exposed areas as I don't think we have ever tried but provided the guy ropes are secured properly I would have thought they would be as good as any other non-expedition style tent.

Hope this helps.

We've got Quechua pop up tents from Decathlon and they're brilliant!! Have withstood rain & wind - only a pain when raining and you have to undo 2 zips and the rain gets in, but positive far outweigh this!! Buy one!! But do get them to show you how to fold it up again after!
