Great tent, large and roomy and very light. The porch area excellent for setting up kitchen and plenty of doors for access in and out. This tent is however impossible to pitch in windy conditions and I would not advise anyone try it. Find pitching in general fiddly compared to our other tent the coleman Sahara 8 which is really fantastic but overall the Vango is great in good weather and once up withstands torrential downpours, thunder and lighting (our recent trip).

Generally very pleased. Large roomy tent with plenty of headroom. Instructions clear and went up fairly easily with two of us but not qickly. I would say it is definitely a two person job to erect as it is quite tall and the poles are awkward to manoeuvre if just the one person trying. Only drawback is that the inner goes up first so not good if you need to pitch in the rain.

The best tent I have owned to date. I have managed to put this tent up on my own but that is a challenge. With 2 it is very easy to put up. We have even had to put it up quickly in the rain and even though it is inner first it wasn't a problem and it dried out very quickly.
The instructions are good but if you have owned a similar tent you won't need to follow them every time I am a man after all! One slight niggle is that the inner tends to touch the outer by the rear door, and has always done so even after multiple attempts to reshape the tent before pegging. But all in all a superb tent. The only reason we would change it is to get one of the funky(er) new colour choices. Pitch sizes can be an issue so pre booking is a must at some sites it really is bigger than your house! Enjoy it if you get one.

Very impressed with our Vango 600XP,good instructions with respect to pitching. Good quality materials, lots of space and head room even in bedroom pods.

Camped for 8 nights no problems/leaks when rained etc.

Excellent family tent. Footprint a must to protect sewn in groundsheet

Only just pitched it but I am impressed so far. Managed to pitch on my own with a little assistance that is required to hold the tent up while the poles were inserted. Will update again when I've stayed in it!
