We are looking to upgrade our Vango Orava 600XL to a polycotton air tent of a similar, or slightly smaller size. We've looked at a few this weekend, but it's a minefield! I'm hoping you guys can help...!

We love Vango - the Kapalua ticks all boxes, but we would like the zip-on extra front canopy, which you can't seem to get for the Kapalua. However, the Keswick Air has one and the Kapalua and Keswick appear to be the same size - do you think this would fit?

We're also interested in the Outdoor Revolution Atacama PC 6.0, but on googling them, Outdoor Revolution get terrible reviews - both for faulty products and after sales service, which makes me nervous. Anybody got experience of Outdoor Revolution? We tried to ring them today to make some enquiries, but they don't have a customer service number, which again, seems odd.

Any other general advice on 5 or 6 berth polycotton air tents would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

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

Every time this gets asked, I go bell/touareg style or dutch pyramid style.
Most are cotton, but some are polycotton.

Others will have differing preferences
