Am contemplating purchasing this. Does anyone have one and if so what do they think of it (no reviews on UK Campsite).

I'm currently looking at similar spec tents and have discounted this one as it has no storm porch on the side door. I've had a similar designed tent before and if its raining or has been raining and you open the door you get quite a bit of wet in the tent before you get in/out and the door zipped back up.

B*gger! What do you like the look of?

I also looked at the Outwell Carolina but don't fancy something light poo colour .

To be honest I haven't found a tent that I like the look of enough to buy one. I kind of liked the Nevada but its those horrible, thin aluminum poles rather than the steel ones. We went to a tent show on a rather windy day, but it was a sheltered field and one of the poles on the Nevada show tent was seriously bent, tent was blowing all over the place and the pole looked about ready to snap.

I've always had Outwell tents previously so have half heartedly looked at other brands now as well.

Sprayway Valley looks nice on the website but I haven't seen one in real life. I don't know what the quality is like and also there don't look to be many windows so I'm just not sure.

We have a camper van at the minute as well as a very old, slightly leaky Outwell Colorado and we're managing with those. Outwell do some nice stand alone camper van awnings and I'm tempted to get one of those and we could use it as a tent on its own as well (I think). But I already have a brand new Kyham awning for the van which was very expensive. I just think its a bit small, decided that after using it once. DH will kill me if I buy another!

I'm no expert but I don't think Sprayway seem very substantial having seen them at a tent show last weekend. They come in nice colours though - the ones I saw were grey and cream (no idea of which models they were).

I like the look of Khyam tents but really don't like their colour!

My van awning is Kyham, one of those instant erect things where the poles are already in situ. Well one of the knuckle jointes snapped as I shook it out to erect it, its been replaced with a new awning but I have lost faith in Kyham.
