2 Reviews of the Skydome 6

By: Cal54  Reason: I've used one  Made in: 2004   Rating:   Date: 19/06/2012

Returned from Silverstone having left the tent there after it collapsed in very high winds.

The inner pod was OK, plenty of space (for 2 of us)and reasonably stable.

I bought off Ebay and was not warned the metal frame was damaged. The instructions were not clear how the steel poles fitted together, unfortunately the stability was seriously compromised and the front porch buckled under the pressure of the wind and the junction bent. It was beyond repair.

Had the steel poles been intact I'm sure it would have been a different story and these two campers wouldn't have been searching for an alternative berth on the 2nd night.

I'm not sure when it was manufactured, hope somebody might correct me! Easy to pitch even for a female, on her own. We have had this tent new since 2010, we have stayed dry through torrential rain and high winds.

You put together the poles then place in a central 'spider' clip on the inner tent,peg down, connect the porch arm, throw the fly sheet over peg down guy ropes.Done.

It says 2 people 15-20 mins, I can manage on my own ( while husband settles the dog and son checks out the site!)in 25-30 mins, dismantling 10 mins max. Easy to dry in 2 steps hanging in the garage.

As our 1st ever tent a good buy.
