Advantages: Good Size, Brilliant Value, High Quality, Sturdy, Easy to Erect Disadvantages: None that I can think of!
I purchased my Vango Venture 500 towards the end of 2006. For the bargain price of £85.00 and I haven't looked back since! Numourus camping trips have bee happily spent in this tent and it will see many more!
The frame consists of 2 large poles crossing over to make the main dome, and a 3rd smaller pole creating a loop for the porch area. Once erect, with all pegs and guide ropes in place the tent is extremely strong and stable. We have camped in strong winds and strong rain and it has stood strong throughout.
As long as there are two of you, erecting the tent is a swift and easy process. Funnily enough you tend to erect it faster when its raining! And packing it back into the bag is an art the first time but you tend to remember how to do it from then onwards and it's easy enough. When packaged, the tent is relatively heavy ...

Advantages: Lightweight, spacious, well made Disadvantages: fiddly to put up
. Besides it?s cheaper than hotels. But the good old Vango Force Ten was looking a bit the worse for wear so we decided to invest in a new luxurious but compact model large enough to accommodate 3 young children and 2 middle aged adults.
Tent design changed a great deal about 10 years ago with the advent of dome tents and tunnel tents. These incorporate flexible jointed poles, made either of metal or glass fibre. They increase the usable space inside the tent, having a curved ceiling, take up less room when packing and are lighter. Tent material has also improved greatly; you are no longer restricted to heavy weight canvas and you can choose from a range of polyurethane coated materials in a variety of grades. Inner chambers are made with breathable cotton, or nylon with sewn in groundsheets. You can still buy traditional ?A? Frame ...
Advantages: stylish; everything you need Disadvantages: not much memory; keypad a little small
Samsung, in my opinion, make some of the best, well made products and thus, all my gadgets tend to be manufactured by SAMSUNG, including ONE of my mobile phones - the Samung J-700.
The J-700 comes available in either metallic black or pink so it's stylish for boys and girls a like though I do consider this more of a 'girly' looking phone with it's long slender smooth appearance. The phone is a slide up which are my favourite kinds. I always feel like I will smash the screen with flip phones and with standard ones, the key pads always get accidentally pressed and you call someone unknowingly. With a slide, the key pad is protected by the front screen. A simply push upwards eaily slides the screen up with a click to reveal the keypad and locks securely into place. All the keypad and buttons light up when this happens and go off shortly ...
