Hi, I'm new, but have a question on Outwell tents and getting mixed reviews from my mates. I'm looking at the Outwell Parkdale 6 air and worried about quality and waterproofing? Anyone here have thoughts?

Thank you!

Hi, I know it's not the 6PA but we had a Parkdale 4PA for 2 years and used it for over 12 camping trips (of either 4 or 5 days each time). It was absolutely fantastic and was a brilliant size for 2 of us. Only sold it as it got a bit heavy for my husband. Quality was brilliant and never had any leakage anywhere.

Thank you, that's really helpful. What did you end up getting after the Parkdale...being conscious of weight as well. ;)

We went to a pole tent for lower weight. An Outwell Odessa 5, very similar in shape just a bit smaller.
