We have this one

Much easier to put away than all the other pop-up ones we've had and it's a really decent size to sit in - you can zip up the front to use it as a changing room.

Is that the Coleman one Weblette? I can't open the link. If it is, another vote from me. I bought one last week, it took three minutes to put up and its great. Added bonus that it went back in the bag easily too!

Nope it's the Quechua 2Secs XL. This one takes erm three seconds to put up Get that one over the ordinary version - the ordinary one doesn't have the extra flap.

As I said, we've had a few over the years but this one's the best.

What's it like on the beach in the sun - does it get boiling hot inside?

Has anyone got the Outwell Miami? We got one but have yet to try it!

I don't like the pop up tent things because they get boiling inside. I've tried two and they were both sweltering. I just bought a canopy type thing that you put together in five minutes with tent-type poles. It's a bit of a faff but it's SO much nicer because it lets the breeze through. I got mine at Lidl but I can't see it anywhere on the net only a similar 'UV Dome Tent' at www.jacksons-camping.co.uk/kidstuff/beach.htm
