Good Points

Fabulous size. Generous for space.

Bad Points

Having to erect the inner tent first before attaching the flysheet, terrible idea if you are erecting in the rain! Tensioning ribbons are a major trip hazard on the awning.

General Comments

Integral ground sheet leaked badly. The inner tent got wet when erecting, therefore we couldn't get sufficient tensioning when pegging it down and attaching flysheet, as the inner tent stuck to everything. It took 2 days for the inner tent to dry enough for us to remove the fly sheet, so we could put it back on properly.

Tensioning ribbons on the awning were a dangerous tripping hazard even when pegged down. The separate ground sheet for the awning didn't fit properly.

We are returning this tent under warranty, due to ground sheet leaking and we won't be looking to replace it with another Vango Diablo 900.
