Tell us all about it and what would you have and why if money was no object.

start a new thread for each tent

I know a lot of you go for big name tents Gelert, Kyam etc etc etc but I really like Eurohike. I have had my backpaker tent for years now and it still does it's job. It has kept me warm and dry even after a 12 hour downpour on the North Yorkshire moors. We also have a Eurohike Buckingham which has also served us well.

my brother has a euro hike and recons its the best he has ever had..

i had ( gave to my daughter) a Quechua tent and its been the best ever used as an all seasons tent has done me proud and is now doing the same for her..

Hi
Well I can now reclaim my camping under canvas status, with our Cabanon Pyramid 4 with extended flysheet. but even now if money was no object this would have to be no1 on my list ,you could back pack it for a small group trek, you could pitch it on virtually any coastal site in the world without fear of it been blown down. yes this is the best lightweight family sized tent in the world.

£3,300 for a tent. Blooming heck Rex!!

Reminds me of a hedgehog

After having recently trawled round a large tent shop I came to the conlusion the tent I have got is still best for us even after3 years. We have a Outwell Monty6 with front extension and carpet.

If we hadn't have gone over to vanning, the Monty 6 would have been the next tent we bought. i think they are great but Bern won't have it.

I love ours its large enough for my family of four (and our bikes) really cosy, the window system of plastic/mesh/curtain or nothing is very useful. It so easy and quick to put up, the only grip I have is the size of the holdall that comes with is, needs to be a bit bigger, its always a tight fit getting it back in the bag, I have had many a strange look as I roll around on it to get all the air out

The rolling works to get the air out, unfortunatly its not always the air from the tent that is expelled

We are so happy with our De Waard Lepelaar that the only 'money no object' tent we would want is another DW...

...every one in the catalogue if possible!!!

gelert alaska 8[remember it ?]coz its enormous and all the kids get their own room,plus we still have the vango venture 500 we started with as a weekend tent--me and Alex got it out of retirement this year for the youve been nabbed bike rally.

Remember the minny I bought, well its full if mildew, bit of cleaning to be done
