i am a regular camper , i bought this tent for family trips away , we have used the tent 3 times , it is very easy to erect and very quick , a great size etc , as for the hydrastatic head being 3000 and therefore should be very waterproof is a joke , this tent leaks all over,not just the seams , the fabric just dosnt hold water, it also dosnt stand up to wind very well , i have to say it was very windy but this tent could not cope , two of the poles snapped, the inner support snapped and the pegs are also useless , the guy ropes just came out of the ground, if your planning on camping in england , dont buy this tent, great for calm sun shiny days but thats all

You sure ur talking about the exact same tent? The Vango Vista 800 DLX has been discontinued for a few years now. Replaced by the Vista 800. We had the 800 DLX for 6 years now and used it many times and its never leaked and nothing has broken.
