It is a great family tent. Have just brought one first time campers would recommend this tent.Great value for money and lots of space for family of 5 2 teenagers 1 12yr old and 2 adults.
Very easy to put up and simple instructions, up very quickly. Would recommend any body to get this tent if haven't camped before.

I've downsized from a Vango Vista 800 which was a fantastic family tent, but family and friends have bought their own tents, so the vista 800 was too large. We looked round a was stuck between Vango Icarus 500 and Mojave 5, we took advice and bought the Icarus got it home and erected it and found it wasn't for us.
We felt the doors wouldn't keep my dog secure and he would get out, so we purchased the Mojave 5 and what a great tent, both side doors zip fully round and have mossie nets so you can have both doors open and no insects get in. The bedrooms are very spacious and are separate 3 and 2, the living area is very good, enough room for all our equipment and at night we had 6 adults and a large dog in and was comfortable. We had all weathers scorching sun(the side doors opened with nets down and let fresh air in), high winds (the tent stood up very well) and torrential rain (not one leak). We erected and pegged out in 20 mins and dismantled in about the same time, no problems at all. Great Tent For first timers and diehards alike. P.S Don't listen to reps at go outdoors ha ha.

We have just down sized from a massive rage tent, as it was so big and heavy my husband suffered with his back for days after. We bought the tent and used it this week for the first time, myself 2 kids and my mum, we erected the tent no problems at all, and there really is enough room (i was a bit worried as I was use to a big one). I like it, I like it a lot. O and we did get a lot of comments from people who liked it.

Just bought this tent and absolutely love it. Out of all tents we have owned it was the easiest and quickest to erect. Lots of room inside and we think that with the sewn in groundsheet and 3000HH is one of the best on the market at the moment for a cost of £149 (Go Outdoors). The only thing we could not comment on at the moment is the actual waterproofing as it did not rain whilst we used it. We even managed to get it back into its own bag which with our other tents mainly Vango is much harder work. Overall for the money I would highly recommend this tent.
UPDATE
I have just arrived back from two weeks of horrendous high winds, torrential rain and generally very bad weather in Anglesey for two weeks and just wanted to say that this tent is superb, it withstood all the bad weather with no leaks, broken poles etc. Absolutely fabulous and would highly recommend.

Just bought this tent (£150 go outdoors) and used for the 1st time (1st time camping in 20 years.!) Easy to put up (40 minutes 1st time) - Only 2 adults and used 2nd sleeping area as storage and changing area. Did everything its supposed to. As per other comments we didn't use the large front door instead using the 2 side doors (these were more than adequate). All cooking done outside - not a fan of naked flames inside a tent. Had only a small shower of rain so cannot comment on any leaks etc. Approx 25 minutes to put tent away - and yes it fits back in the bag.!

Have just returned from a weekend on the Yorkshire coast, the weather was torrential rain and gusty/gale force winds (the forecast was light showers) and this tent stood up to the elements magnificently, didn't budge in the wind (we do use Delta pegs) no leaks and this was on a site where '8 or nine tents were skipped'. There is just the two us and we only put one bedroom pod up, loads of room for storage, sitting, etc, three entry points is a great idea, whichever way you pitch choose the entry point that offers the most privacy, brilliant tent for the money (£150:00 online)would be adequate for weeks as well as weekends.

I bought this tent for when I camp without OH as I cant quite pitch the Oregon 8 on my own. And what can I say! absolutely fantastic and cheap (£150).
Very easy to pitch on my own with help from my 7 year old carrying pegs lol! (im 5ft 6 female).
We were in very heavy wind and rain all week and this tent stood up to all it was subjected too. No leaks!
Would definitely recommend.

We used the Mojave for the first time in September at the Chertsey site, and we thought it is a great tent. There is only the two of us but the stuff the oh takes we need all the space. The only thing I will change is to put some sticky back velcro along the bottom of the main front door. Apart from that an excellent tent,and we've had a few over the years.

Just purchased the tent this week, we have yet to go away in it, however, we put it up in the garden on Saturday and only took it down today. The tent has withstood hailstones, heavy sharp showers and wind. The tent was dry no water ingress at all. I cannot wait to have our first trip in it. We previously owned a 2009 Vango Colorado 800 DLX, whilst this was a good tent it was too big and took a great deal of time to put up.
The Mojave only took 15 mins to put up and around the same time to take down: what a joy we are totally delighted. When we have our first trip away I will update

Love this tent. Bought it from the new GoOutdoors in Southampton for £100. I came home from work and my wife who is a complete novice had been able to put it up on her own, rather windy and with our 2 boys under her feet too!
Spent 2 nights in it so far, lots of room. Zips got caught quite a bit but seem to be made well enough not to damage the tent. Fitted back in to the bag easily. A window would have been nice and it is very blue, however the tent stayed darker in the morning and the kids slept longer. We didn't notice a draught from the large front door but weather was reasonable for us, cant wait to take it away again soon. Tent heavy, not much of a factor for us but maybe a concern if you need to throw it into a roof box. Really good tent, very good price

Manufacturer's Description
Easy to erect, easy to dismantle, and offering generous living space, the Mojave 5 is a great choice for families wanting comfortable, fuss-free camping, or couples wanting extra space for storage and fun.
It pitches outer first, with separate 3 and 2 person rooms that clip in to the underside.
With taped seams, a sewn-in groundsheet and completely waterproof outer layer (3000HH), you can be sure of total protection from rain and draughts.
The poles are angled to give you maximum headroom throughout the tent, so no need to stoop when you're inside. The pole sleeves have slick inners to make pitching the tent quick and easy.
In warmer weather, the breathable inner and 2 side doors with full mesh panels give you superb ventilation and allow plenty of light into the tent. The large front door can be extended out as a canopy, using the steel porch poles, offering shelter from sunshine or rain.
It has bright and reflective pre-attached guylines to keep it stable and secure, and more visible in the dark. There's also a electrical cable access point allowing you to use appliances inside the tent with the minimum of fuss.
A practical and versatile option for families, group campers or anyone who needs comfort and breathing room when out in the wild.
