Hi everyone,

my wife and I recently bought the Enigma 5 bundle from GoOutdoors but now I've seen a secondhand Outwell Glendale 5 for a good price. The Glendale is 5 years old but looks in very good condition and has a lot more room than the Enigma. I'm debating taking the Enigma back and getting the Glendale but I'm a little worried about the age of it.

Should the Glendale be good for a few more years yet or should we stick with the Enigma?

Thanks in advance for any help or advice you could give me

theres a new tent which looks like it replaces the glendale out now - the glenwood 600 which is much bigger than the glendale 5. the 600 is currently on offer at 250.00 - although they will try to sell you the front extension awning carpet and a footprint getting you to almost double your spend to 450.00!.

but buy a cheap sedona footprint at 25.00 ( they are on clearance ) and use a carpet from another tent or one thats also on clearance and you have a bargain big tent!
