mattanna Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 If anyone is wanting a chep tent deal, then go to Argos, £39.99 for 2 man tent with porch, 2000mm hydrostatic head(about the max) two mummy sleeping bags and two ground mats, i have already put the tent up, easy to "erect" and has taped seams and can take maximum downpour!!!

tooquicktostop Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 I saw some great tents at Decathlon sports store in Lakeside, fold up into a rucksack and yet sleep up to 4, all for less than £50, all I need now is a Supra ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattanna Posted July 10, 2007 Author Share Posted July 10, 2007 I was tent ignorant, but apparently 2000mm hydrostatic head is the highest value for rain resistance, lowest being 800, 1200, 1500 then 2000, but for ground mats and sleeping bags as well this is good, i have tried everything out and was more impressed than i thought i would be, made in China but what isn't nowadays!!

dangerous brain Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 There'll be no room for the cars with all these mobile mansions Can't beat an army 7x9, small footprint 8'x10' standing room in pretty much the whole tent and sleeps two nicely which is usually how many people are in each mansion tent with own butler and guy ropes stretching into next week RE the halfords one quick to erect 25 minutes?? WTF lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesC Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 And i bought THIS for me and the missus for JAE, which is apparently 3000mm.
