I've just got back from a 550 mile round trip in which I picked up my eBay purchase of the century: a basically brand new current model Esvo Bedouin 280.
And it's lovely.
In early July, we decided that our quick getaway tent - a ten year old dome tent that cost �50 - was at the end of its life and needed to be replaced.
I started the search and made the mistake of looking on eBay and spotted this and fell in love:
For a slightly bargain price, a couple of days of my time, a night's campsite fees and a tank of fuel, I am now the proud owner of my dream tent.
I'll get better at pitching it, I promise (this first effort only took 22 minutes - yes, I timed it. Judge me if you want I don't care)
Even the pegs are a thing of beauty.

Don't forget to leave a review of all tents you've used, for a chance to win fantastic prizes
Awww what a little beauty and a lucky find! We have a Cabanon Guadeloupe ( a bit larger dimensions for two adults and loads of kit) but I dream of a smaller pyramid for solo trips..... well done on a brilliant find and I wish you lots of happy camping.
PS - I found that triangular side tarps sold for bell tents work well on a pyramid, simply looping them from the porch poles and pegging them out as an extension if you have not got the purpose-made extension wings.
