We have just returned from two weeks on the Isle of Wight with our new Killington 900, and it was superb. We had one very heavy thunderstorm, and a couple of nights of high winds, and the tent took it all in it's stride.
For experienced campers it is easy to erect, but packing takes some practice. I contacted Vango about this and they responded very quickly with some very useful advice.
The Killington 900 is simply huge. We have three growing children, and so valued the space it offers, and we are very pleased with it.
We also have the sun canopy/porch accessory for the front, which keeps the front door dry and is very handy.
The tent's large size might be an issue on some sites. We used an electric hook-up pitch, and it just about fitted within the allocated space. Also some site owners tend to moan about the effect tents pitched for more than a few days have on their grass! But why worry about the grass if you are running a camp site??? I imagine that pitch sizes will have to grow in the coming years!
All in all a very robust, large, family tent. We can't wait to use it again.

Just bought our Killington and took it for a trial run in the half term. Took a while to put up, slightly harder than the dvd made it look (we are used to an easy to put up Khyam )first night we had a howling gale and it pored with rain all night. No problem with the tent.It is large but cosy, well thought out design, I couldn't be more pleased. Looking forward to using it again.
