Hi all,we have just bought an gelert utah 4x4,we currently use an outwell iowa l with front extension and love the outside space this gives but we have been looking for a tent we can stand up in,and as its a frame tent will cope with windy weather better.does anyone know if there is a universal extention that would fit on this tent ?
cheers

I'm not sure what your tent looks like but if you can match it to any of the hi gear tent range there all made by the same people so the corresponding hi gear model if an extention is made for that should fit. hth

Hi, I ve been checking your Gelert Utah 4+4 and is this it?

http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/tents/p/Gelert-Utah-4-+-4/395

If it is, I cant find the height. If its around 2m, then there is a Outwell Universal Canopy http://www.craigdonmountainsports.com/Images/Dynamic/Cache/Products/2184-633803395484940687_cm-scaleaddwhite_w-140_h-140_q-80.jpg

It fits both my tents, Outwell Sun Valley 6, Ouwell Iowa L 6 (same as your other tent)  and  we use it for days out and put it on the back of the car ,Renault Scenic )and I have the Iowa L side canopy as well.

With the Sun Valley , we have the Gelert Horizon Porch   

http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/tents/userimages/1549.jpg

 

 (Outstading Porch with detatchable door!! Availible in 3 colours) which fits both tents also, As long as the height is OK and your not too fussed with the slight gap you MIGHT get when it meets up against the Gelert 4 + 4  as it seems flat sides but you would be suprised how adaptable/flexible they can be, Have a look,

You could have a try of the canopy you already have for a rough Idea  how it sets up against the 4 + 4 as long as your not fussy if the colours are different (tent,canopy). The Ouwell Universal is a silver/grey...and the Gelert Horizon is in blue or chestnut or green.

A bit confusing but I hope this helps.

Oh....why not sell the canopy you have for the Iowa L or use it for the 4 + 4 ) and get a Horizon Porch instead,Its  like adding another room onto it , cooking . storage etc..!
