My little two person tent.
Review of Eurohike 220 by
mumsymary
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 ...

Tents and 2 children under 3- what a match
Review of Eurohike 455TS tent by
princesssoapy
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

Lichfield Cherokee Tunnel 2 Tent
Review of Lichfield Cherokee 2 Tent by
north_north_west
Advantages: value for money, ease of erecting, space, ventilation, weight
Disadvantages: ventilation, mine leaked
I bought this tent from a discount online store. This is a tunnel tent and relies entirely on being properly pegged to stay erect but once it's pitched I found it more stable in the wind than any dome. On my own I can have it up in 5 minutes.
The living area is almost the same size as the inner tent and big enough to kneel up in. The tent comfortably sleeps 2 adults and accomodates 2 adults and a small child. The living area sets it apart from any ... ...weather is so unpredictable. You could easily cook and spend a few hours in there without feeling uncomfortable! It's also good for cycling as bikes and luggage can be stored in the front and it only weighs 4.2kg which is a good bit less than similar makes.
Inner tent has a lot of vents; good for summer but if it's cold take a warmer sleeing bag. Also, mine had a leak just off the seam in the fly sheet where it looked like the tape hadn't been laid ...

not in the winds!
Review of Coleman Savannah Frame Tent by
meeeee4
Advantages: easy to put up
Disadvantages: not durable enough
a very good tent, easy to put up, can be done in around 20 mins. can stand up in it so it helps when getting changed. holds six so ideal for a family. but there is one problem - do not use it in strong winds!
we went camping, as a family. me, my brother, my mam and dad, my nan and taid. (yes my nan and taid!) so we set up the tent blah blah and to sleep.
3 in the mornin me and my bro were woken up to the tent fallin on us. The pole had buckled ... ...head. We moved to the porch because we couldnt be bothered wake everyone up. When i next woke up my mother was pulling me out from under the tent. The whole tent had collapsed in the wind and rain!
so there we all went, nain and taid and all, packing up the stuff from under the tent, in the rain and after a good soaking got in the car and went home.
so lets just say not the best camping experience! xx ...

Gelert Rocky 2 - Fantastic Little Tent
Review of Gelert Rocky 2 by
bluestar666
Advantages: Lightweight, Easy to Erect, Great Value
Disadvantages: Porch uncovered when front door open
I bought this tent for a 2 night stay for just myself to use. I bought it from Go Outdoors for just £25 although other websites and shops sell them at a little more than this, most of them retail at around £35.
First of all it comes in a neat little carry bag which took up hardly any room at all in my car!!!
I decided not to attempt putting up the tent before i went away as i normally do so i have some idea of how it goes together!! I decided it ... ...right, it was easy to put up and didn't take long at all. For a two man tent it has a good sized storage area or porch at the front. The ground sheet in the porch is also sewn in which saves extra faffing once the tent is up.
I could easily lie down in the tent and another person would easily have fitted in there with me too. It rained both nights i camped in the tent and it didn't leak or anything which is always a good sign!! It was quick and ...
