Vango Sigma Mallard & Mercury dome tent, ideal tent for a family it has two entrances which made siting easier and gave some privacy for the kids when they were desperate in the night. It takes around ten minutes to erect and probably twenty to get back down, folding into such a small bag seems to take forever. It is colour coded and double seamed and looks very smart when erected. The only downfall was the porch linings are separate and when it rained seemed to let the rain trickle in and the tent pegs bent the first time they were used, these could have been stronger. It had four pockets inside though for the torches etc and the kids loved it because they could get straight through. A great tent in a storm as the centre had a fitted groundsheet.
