Just thought I would reply to your message. Ive just ,in the last couple of days, bought a Skandika Indiana tent. We put it up in the garden and the heavens opened up for about an hour. On checking inside there was not a drop of water . We are really impressed so far.Its a good sized family tent with good head height at 7ft.

Like other tent, they dont come supplied with a sig, but just as you would do with other tents, buy a slighty larger tarp and turn up the insides of the tent. I did this with mine, no problem with draughts and it has stayed perfectly dry in very heavy rain.

I was thinking the same thing. I've recently bought the Endeavour which I have not had the opportunity to use yet. I did notice that the ground sheet provided was a little small so was going to get a bigger one. Where did you get your replacement one from?
also......what are storm flaps, mentioned in an earlier post?
We purchased the Gamma for this season and toured around germany and luxomberg with it.
Huge tent (hard work putting it up to be honest) lots of space inside. we only paid £100 for it aswell new so it done us good for our trip. we did have a few complaints tho but remember for 100 quid they can be ignored despite the fact we binned it in luxomberg and finished with 2 nights in belgium in a hotel! (it was very very very wet)
We had some leakage on the seams in heavy rain.
No windows!!!
Drafty (although above advise should resolve that)
Found the zips to be poor kept getting stuck.
But still as i said it was 100 quid and we had a wicked time in it!
