We went for the Horizon 8 in the end from Campmania, I was a bit worried as I hadnt read the reviews on Campmania until after I had ordered it, but I ordered it on a Friday and it came the follwing thursday so although not next day as it stated on the site but still quick enough for a large item.  I am putting it up in garden later so will post feedback on how easy it is??!!

We managed to pitch the Gelert Horizon 8 very easily, by laying the ground sheet flat and inserting all the poles into the colour coded cuffs on the pole sleeves, leaving them all extended straight until all in.  Then we pegged one end down and inserted the ring pins into each end of the poles one pole at a time, my hubby and I worked either side. then when all were in we pulled it up from the unpegged end and pegged that in - and bingo it was up, just pegged rest in and hung bedrooms up, its very easy, we also managed to put it away quickley and get it back in bag first time !! (we stood on it to get all air out). Very pleased with it.  We have bought the canopy too, but havent tried it yet, its the older slot in poles so will probably take long to erect than the tent!!
