Very easy to pitch and to pack away, light and compact. Has withstood decent rain showers without problems.
Although sold as a '4 man' sharing it with my 13 and 8 year old boys was 'cosy' enough, including bags, etc. Wouldn't consider any more than that. Also, wouldn't consider any more than a 2 nights stay.
Bought as a 'weekender' to introduce the boys to camping and as such is OK. However, owing to the (small) size, not much fun in inclement weather - difficult for an adult to move around without touching the sides. Plus, as alluded to elsewhere, when you open the door after a night of rain it drips in to the porch.

I like the tent, plenty of space for two people but would think for a holiday it would be tight for four people. The sides and doors are sloping so that when it rains you have to zip up the doors or get wet so it could really do with a porch at least over one door.

The tent was bought (for £35) as an overnighter (2 nights on the outward journey, and 1 night on the return) for the August 2008 family holiday to the South of France – 2 adults and 3 small kids.
It was certainly fit-for-purpose. It was simple to pitch taking just 15 mins.
The weather was kind, so I cannot comment on wind/rain.
The 30c French heat and lack of wind, could explain the morning condensation inside the roof of the tent? This is a minor gripe.
The tent was also simple to pack away. It is very light, and folds away to almost nothing.
In summary £35 well spent :)
