I have just taken delivery of a Gelert Horizon 8 and tried putting it up in the back garden. The pin and ring system allows the tent poles to connect across the tent. There are 5 tent poles, and each one connects to the tent by a pin/ring on either side.
However, the middle (main) pole only has a pin and ring on the one side. There is not a corresponding pin/ring on the other side although there is s strap.
I'm pretty sure this is a manufacturing mistake and that there should a a pin/ring on both sides. Could someone with this model comment? I'm new to camping so it could be my mistake.
Thanks
Mark

Many thanks for the advice everybody, much appreciated. So sounds like a fault. Bit of a pain, but at least we found out in the back garden and not whilst camping with 4 kids!
