hi everyone.....we bought the vango large sun canopy to go over the porch extention of our venture 500 . its not a perfect fit by all means but great for cooking in and storing gear.  a bit open to the elements at the front but with a windbreak in front stops the wind and rain a bit from blowing in , next time we use it im going to take members idea and put it further back over dome so the sides are not exposed.....cheers....stewey

i also got mine from outdoor world for 25.00, like stewey its not a perfect fit, but it does fit my vango idaho 600, ok i have to have the 2nd section really close to the tent, and then i just throw the ropes over my tent and peg out, it really did me well a few weeks ago in windy/wet wales.

When Vango says it is univeral, does this mean it can fit on "most" tents?

I have a coleman bi-space (similar to idaho?) and wonder it would fit.

I think with small adaptations this can be made to fit most tunnel-type tents. I have bought it for my Coleman Columbus and while I know it isn't made for this I will attempt to modify it to fit...

We bought one of these from World of Tents a couple of weeks ago for £25 but the price seems to have gone up now to £35.

I would say it was worth the money though and I think on reflection I'd pay 35 quid for it, it really is a good size.

World of tents seems to have a variety of colours available too.

I think I might try attaching ours to our Coleman Darwin 5 after what I've read on here.
