Advantages: Easy and straight forward to erect.

Disadvantages: Not suitable for a larger family.

especially when its your first time camping with them, Callum 2 years 8 months and Lucy 10mths (fast crawler!). This was also the first time my husband had put up this Eurohike 455TS tent, and it was late and we were both tired hungry and irritable and so were the kids.

Now add wind to this scene as well and me having to hold on to the tent whilst hubby knocks in the pegs and if I had been watching instead of doing then I would probably have been in hysterics.

The tent though, getting back to the subject on hand, is a brilliant design it goes up very easily and my husband reckons that he will be bale to do it on his own next time, which is good news for me)

The features of the Euroike 455TS are:

UV nylon coated fabric (SPF30)
Taped seams
7 Shock corded fibreglass poles
flysheet(outer) first erection
2 inner tents
gear pockets
colour coded pole system
large living area with groundsheet

all this for £199.99 but we got it for a reduced price of £159.99 because of foot & mouth and retailers encouraging people to go away in Britain.

The best things about this tent is the enormous living area, in the living area even my husband at 5' 11" can stand upright. The whole family could have a meal round a table in the living area, the two inner tents were perfect for us as we are only a small family.

As well as for small families like ours this tent would also be perfect for group camping, say two couples.

I would really reccommend this Tent,although I am still not sure about camping, but this excellant tent made in more bearable for me.

By the way we are going camping again in it again soon,so it can't be that bad can it.
