Are O.R tents as bad as the reviews say?

Reviews where? The reviews on here seem pretty positive generally. UKCampsite Reviews I haven't used one of their tents myself but I've used other kit from them which has all been fine.

I went on the website and then onto Trust Pilot. Really disappointed as it was the perfect layout. Also said they are a British company but all their stuff is made in China?

..... and you think other British/European manufacturers/suppliers products are NOT made in China!!!!! VERY LITTLE is not made in China or some other cheap manufacturing base, you have to hit the real top end of the market to find much that 'potentially' is made elsewhere!

I've had a few bits of OR equipment, not a tent though, and it seems to be of comparable quality to most offerings on the market. One of the more critical points with a company is their warranty, and customer service backup, than where they have their products made! I'd love if stuff DIDN'T come from China, but it does, and we're stuck with it!

We have one and it's great. The Airdale has valves to bleed off over pressure on the air tubes. Very reassuring on hot days
