Hi there I was just wondering is it possible to leave the bedroom in the vv500 when its time to come home and just fold up the tent as normal?Would this cause any problems or stress to the tent? has anyone else done it?

Thanks guys

I am glad I have read this post as we have just bought the Vango Tamor today. I would imagine that it would be ok but will wait and see what other UKCS members think.

I have a VV500 and following the sale at Gooutdoors my Scout Group has another 5.I cant see why it would not be possible to pack it away all in one, I have never tried it. On the plus side the bag is quite generous so if you made a bit of a hash of it you might still be lucky to squeeze it all in.

it says on the blurb for the tent you can leave the bedroom in situ but what i found when trying to pack away like that is it makes it just a bit too big to get back in the bag easily. to be honest it hardly takes any time to reattach so i have not bothered

It can be done but it does make erecting the tent harder the next time.
