Good Points
Looks fantastic when erected and has lots of space inside. Bedroom compartments are warm of a night.

Bad Points
The Vango Colorado requires at least 4 people to erect. Not having a sewn in ground sheet allows for drafts. We had moderate winds on our first night and this resulted in two of the fibre glass poles breaking causing the tent to partially collapse. This was the first time the tent had ever been used, after recently being purchased.

General Comments
Being a camping novice I had spoken to a number of other people before choosing a Vango tent, as other people seemed to think that these tents were one of the best. In my opinion, if that's the best that tent manufacturers have to offer then there is a gaping hole in the tent market that needs to be filled. I am now looking for another tent but I'm afraid I will be staying clear of Vango tents in the future. Not too nice spending the night in the car with my 9 and 3 year old kids.
