Has anyone had experience of severe material fade on this tent?

We have used ours for one season, one in miserable weather and 2 weeks sunny.

We have the air porch so when that is taken off the fade is really noticeable.

The porch has fade too

Whilst I expect some fade I'm concerned that the bedroom compartments are getting lighter!

Don't forget to leave a review of all tents you've used, for a chance to win fantastic prizes

New! Please upload a photo of your tent to the Tent Showcase!

Reviving an old post here,
Did the tent survive and hold its waterproofing

We have the same tent and it also has fading, more noticeable when the porch is removed, or positioned differently from a previous camp.

We always seem to get a storm when we camp and haven’t noticed any reduction in waterproofing.

The Porch is just 16 months old and shows no signs of fading, I do not know the age of our Air 6, I got it second hand from a colleague who had only used it twice, I don’t know when they purchased it.
