Hi everyone, I'm new to the site although have been 'watching' for the past year. We have the Hartford XL and are thinking of changing to the Khyam Ontario 8/Kansas 8. I've been reading about the problem of condensation in tents which don't have an inner tent and wondered if you could offer some advice.   A website I've just visited said you could end up with puddles of water just about everywhere!!     We haven't had any problems with our Hartford.        Thanks

We do get some condensation on the inside of our khyam but not enough to make puddles everywhere, it is rare to even get dripped on!

Do you mean tents with SIGs that don't pitch inner first? We've just bought a mallard 6 like this. We got a bit of condensation in the mallard 4 with no SIG, so I hope this won't be too bad.

Thanks for the info, I've just been reading some more and it seems that good ventilation is the key!
