I have an Outwell tent with a Vango non matching canopy and I don't care lol!!

It's just a common or garden Vango large canopy - got mine from fleabay - it was a good price - I'll see if I can find it......................................

There are a few at different prices on the link - mine was about £24 inc postage but the seller isn't on there at the minute.

As can be seen by my photo the standard canopy is rather high for my tent and has little function with regards to extra space. It does give a little shade from the sun if the sun is shining from the side and I've not been able to test it yet but it should keep the rain from entering the open door...providing the rain doesn't run down the underside of the roof due to the slope.

I might have done better getting the two pole (large version) because I was really looking for a canopy to sit under in rainy weather. However, that one is higher still by another 20cm. Perhaps it would be easier and cheaper just to get a bigger tent with a large living area

We bought the vango large canopy to go with our nevada 4 it looks like bertie34 set up.It was very usefull as we went to wales and it poored down for 3 days non stop we cooked in it and sat in it, because we were in it alot it was nice to have the windows.

I think the new one has a door at the front so it is not open to the eliments.

We got it from ebay for £23 plus postage thefootwearwarehouse( 2770)
