Revamp!! sorry ran out of room. We are still on the lookout for a new tent but figure by March someone will have a new range. Outwell updated a lot last season who do think will be looking at a change this coming season??

I understand that manufacturers need to keep on developing and marketing new products to keep on growing and be successful but it seems to me they rush into change too quickly and discontinue tents which are perfectly good tents. Those which spring to mind are the Gelerts Vancouver and Utah 4. Also the Sunncamp Sprint range of tents. Doubtless there are others which I can't think of instantly.

The one annoying thing with all tent makers is once they drop a tent from their range then you are unable to find/buy the relevant carpet/footprints etc.
I think this is a ploy to get you to upgrade to a new tent which imo is not right.
Its the same when you want to buy replacement poles etc,the prices are extortionate, what a rip off.
Customer care is non existent(I don't mean retailers Gary.lol)

every company has a bit of a revamp every year, ive seen some very nice tents this year and just put our orders in with majority of the companies now.
Cant wait as we are expanding our range and hopefully we will get the numbers, sizes etc right.
Kampa tents are looking very swish this year

hope this helps
Ben

Small family tents/5-6 birth like the Nevada M and the Oakland that were hoping to see. No-one gets it quite right. Zips that go all round the doors to keep out draughts (Vangos let you down there). Ease in erecting and strength in winds. Everyone knows what we need I'd like manufacturers to deliver

Still think our Outwell Vermont M is our 'perfect' tent. Shame they don't make them any more as it's perfect for 2 people. Loads of space.

Will NOT be buying a new tent this year as we have the above and an Icarus 500 for those Friday evening 'let's just go somewhere' moments!!!

Can't wait to see the new stuff though.....just 'cos I'm on a diet doesn't mean I can't look at the menu!!!!

I wish Outdoor Revolution had continued to make tents - they were much better than the 'big brand' equivalents...

started a thread a few weeks ago which links in to this. All manufacturers are predicting a massive price hike for next year. Have heard this from numrous sources. To counter this and try and keep prices down they are producing similar tents to this year but with lower specifications. General concensus is if you find a tent now, grab yourself not only a bargain but a higher spec than next spring. its all to do with workers rights in China etc.
