Hi, just used my gelert satellite 6 dlx for the first time but have a slight problem with my inside roof poles. Can get the one in just but when doing the second theres no way we can get it in. Am i doing something wrong or is just the way its made. We also had leaking along the poles as well, not a lot but it meant the floor was wet which meant i got wet socks :s

have you got any pictures, I have one of these, is it the roof bar (the short one that goes between the poles that bend all round the tent?) because you have to bend it quite a lot to get it in, mine also always turns upside down in the rain so you get a roof top swimming pool. Also worth losening the straps on the floor as these can prevent the roof bar going in

Didnt think of loosening the straps lol, didnt even realise you could. Ours stayed all up in the rain and wind of the weekend, did really well, should last us quite a while :) just this little niggly problem was annoying me. Thanks for your help.
