Is this a half decent tent? Doesn't look like it'd handle a turn in the weather too well.

Im not sure, my kids will use it for back garden camping - just a bit of fun for them. Its a good price for the sleeping bags and chairs alone.

That's quite a bargain when you look at all the accessories that are included. I'm guessing that it's one of those pop up tents that you take out of the bag and they spring into shape? I had one before and it was great. When I went camping with friends, I had the tent set up in 2 mins while they were all following instructions for theirs! You have to learn the knack for folding it up and putting it back into the bag again though.

The lack of festivals will see a big sale on these sort of tents. They're ok, but I wouldn't be getting one for use anywhere but a back garden or a festival where you'll be to drunk to let the leaking bother you.

I'd rather spend 10 minutes putting up a tent with a decent hydro static head than a pop up tent which is barely shower proof.

The tent does have a 3000mm hydrostatic head so it's definitely waterproof. Pretty sure most good Vango tents are the same.
I wouldn't be fit for any serious high level camping but a weekend away with the kids or a few mates it'd be ideal

it's Ireland, even with best laid plans you can end up out on a night with persistant heavy rain, and if you do you'll be happy to have a properly treated fly sheet and footprint.

Still, for the price for some impromptu "it's definitely nor going to rain" camping that's an ok tent and the accessories are decent.

Couldn't see that anywhere, that's good. Do you know does it have a fly sheet?
