That is the part of camping nobody misses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis one is a cabin tent on \u003cstrong\u003etelescopic automatic poles\u003c\/strong\u003e. The frame stays in the tent. You spread it out, lift the joints until they lock, and it stands up — then you peg it and you are done. It is the same idea as a pop-up gazebo rather than a traditional pole tent, and it is the reason to buy this over something cheaper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInside it is \u003cstrong\u003e2.6 m long, 2.3 m wide and 1.8 m high\u003c\/strong\u003e. That height matters more than the floor area does: you can stand up and get dressed properly instead of crouching. It is rated 3 to 4 people, which in practice means \u003cstrong\u003etwo adults and their gear in comfort, or four at a squeeze\u003c\/strong\u003e. There is a \u003cstrong\u003e2 x 1.5 m canopy\u003c\/strong\u003e off the front for a shaded spot to sit, cook or leave wet boots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBe clear on what it is for.\u003c\/strong\u003e It weighs \u003cstrong\u003e10.9 kg\u003c\/strong\u003e and the poles are steel. This is a \u003cstrong\u003ecar camping tent\u003c\/strong\u003e — you drive to the site and carry it a short distance.

That is why it pitches so fast, and it is also the trade-off: \u003cstrong\u003eon a cold night you will get condensation on the inside of the fabric\u003c\/strong\u003e, and anything touching the wall will get damp. Leave the vents and windows cracked, and do not push bedding against the walls. A double-wall tent handles this better and takes ten times as long to put up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe supplier publishes two different waterproof figures for the same fabric.\u003c\/strong\u003e The specification block says the outer is rated \u003cstrong\u003e2000–3000 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e and the floor \u003cstrong\u003e1500–2000 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e; elsewhere the same supplier says PU3000 mm and PU2000 mm. We have quoted the ranges rather than picking the flattering number. \u003cstrong\u003eTreat it as a 2000 mm outer\u003c\/strong\u003e and you will not be disappointed. That is fine for normal rain. It is not a four-season mountain tent, whatever the listing category says.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe supplier states, in its own words, that pinholes of light may show through the coating.\u003c\/strong\u003e We are repeating that rather than hiding it: they describe small leakage points visible when the fabric is held against the light, limited to the coating layer, and say it does not affect the tent's function. They say the same about minor coating scratches or hook marks on the canopy, which is partly hand-finished. \u003cstrong\u003eIf that would bother you, buy something else\u003c\/strong\u003e — we would rather tell you now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe supplier does not itemise what is in the bag.\u003c\/strong\u003e The canopy is held out on poles and guy lines, which you can see in the photographs, but there is no published packing list confirming the canopy poles and pegs travel with it. We are not going to promise a contents list nobody has published.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSteel poles need drying.\u003c\/strong\u003e Pack it away wet often enough and steel will rust where the coating gets chipped.

There is \u003cstrong\u003eno measured figure behind that\u003c\/strong\u003e, so we are not going to put a number on it. It is a heavy coated fabric and it will shade you well; that is as far as we will go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNo fire rating is claimed.\u003c\/strong\u003e Keep flames, stoves and heaters outside it, as with any tent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eQ \u0026amp; A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #5EDD5B;\"\u003eHow many people really fit?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe supplier says 3 to 4.
