Tents > Eurohike Tents

My little two person tent.

Advantages: Easy to pitch
Disadvantages: everyone else at Glastonbury festival has one

Time to get the tent out and make sure everything is in tiptop condition. It is Glastonbury in 4 weeks time and we use our Euro hike tent. Our tent is about 4 or 5 years old cost about £40 it is a green 2-man tent, yes it is big enough for 2 Adults and a child a bit of a squeeze but fine for a night or 2. The tent comes in a bag with handles fairly light, (cant find spec on wieght)easy to carry. This Euro hike tent is easy to put up. There is ...
...which you slide into place, and an inner skin, which you fix to the outer tent with lots of toggles; this inner tent has ground sheet attached already. There are tent pegs to fix the tent to the ground to stop it blowing away. It takes me 15 minutes to put it up on my own (I timed myself last year) Less time with another. Yes it is waterproof! We have used it at Glastonbury in the rainstorms. A hint if you are going to Glasto and it looks like ...

Review of Eurohike 220

Eurohike Avon - for festivals not wild camping

Advantages: cost, easy to put up, replaceable poles
Disadvantages: outer rips easily, groundsheet wears easily

This 3 man tent was bought for wild camping expeditions in lowland areas. I had hoped it would withstand being put up and down by enthusiastic teenagers! It can be purchased from Millets for a cost of £49.99. It weighs 4.9 Kg and has a hydrostatic head of 2000mm (most start from about 1500mm). It comes in a good size carry bag (20cm x 66cm) with great handles. The guy ropes are bright fluorescent yellow so not easy to trip over. Ease of use: The ...
...2 people about 10 minutes. There are 3 poles which are colour coded so that the right pole goes in the right place. It’s a bit fiddly to attach the inner area to the outer sheet and this took the most time. The poles split for folding and go through the loop areas really easily. Durability: I took three of these tents out on a really dry weekend and two came back in need of repair after one night. The elastic inside the poles snapped and one ground ...

Review of Eurohike Avon Tent

Tents and 2 children under 3- what a match

Advantages: Easy and straight forward to erect.
Disadvantages: Not suitable for a larger family.

Not- is the continuation of the title, especially when its your first time camping with them, Callum 2 years 8 months and Lucy 10mths (fast crawler!). This was also the first time my husband had put up this tent, and it was late and we were both tired hungry and irritable and so were the kids. Now add windy to this scene as well and me having to hold on to the tent whilst hubby knocks in the pegs and if I had been watchinh instead of doing then ...
...though, getting back to the subject on hand, is a brilliant design it goes up very easily and this was the first time my hubby had put up this tent it was very straightforward and he reckons that he will be bale to do it on his own next time, which is good news for me. Anyway let me describe this marvellous item to you it has: UV nylon coated fabric (SPF30) Taped seams 7 Shock corded fibreglass poles flysheet(outer) first erection 2 inner tents ...

Review of Eurohike 455TS tent

Brilliant Outwell Vermont L

Advantages: Space, Durability, Comfort
Disadvantages: Weight

In my opinion, this is probably the best Mid to Large tent that you could wish for. Unfortunately, as a previous reviewer wrote, it is rather heavy and although it is easy to erect it does take time as there is an awful lot of pegging down to do. However, once erected, it's like living in a palace, especially when like us, there is only my wife and I. We have weathered some quite severe storms with both wind and rain, where you felt like it was going ...

Review of Outwell Vermont L Tunnel Tent

Quechua Tent

Advantages: Very Easy to put up
Disadvantages: Takes a couple of goes to put it away. Easy once you know how

...easy. I also bought a Quechua blow up bed to use with it, the two together were the perfect match. I can't praise these enough I am yet to find a better make of tent. I recommend these to anyone looking for a quick and easy tent. I have also found a really good website to buy them from. www.quechua-tents.com There were so easy to buy from and I got the tent the next day with no hassle. ...
