    What have they done to the old khyam Excel that has turned it into the failure I read about in these reviews. We have just returned from a 4,000 mile tour of Europe and have camped many times with our tent in uk. It coped with howling gales in Glencoe, and monsoons in Europe . Our tent is now 5 years old, very well used, has never collected or leaked water, and as been robust in gales and rain. It is perfect. What has gone so badly wrong in the new Khyam Chatsworth model/ version of this wonderful old tent?

    The Khyam Chatsworth was easy to erect, none of the weatherproof problems mentioned in other reviews despite using it in wet/windy weather. Best tent weve ever had.

    I didn't click any stars at first, but that wasn't acceptable! I actually don't believe it to be worth any stars.
    I had a Kyam XL tent for 9 years and it stood up to everything the weather had to throw at it. Minor problems on the bedroom corner, but otherwise great. I bought the Chatsworth last year,as I liked the thought of an inbuilt groundsheet. The first time I used it was fine. There was a little rain, but all went well. The second time there was heavy rain and the bedroom pole bent, allow ...

    Brought this Khyam Chatsworth tent and annex for my family of four (Two adults, two kids 11 & 4). Used twice so far and have found the tent to have plenty of room with the annex up. None of the problems have been experienced as stated in the previous reviews even though we did have fairly strong winds and a heavy downpour of rain during one of the nights. There was a fair amount of rain collected outside at the bedroom poles during the storm but was easily cleared by lowering one side to allow f ...

    As with the other comment about the Khyam Chatsworth, we experienced the same. Leaking from the seams, especially where the inner bedroom is attached to the roof and around the side door, the zips suck in the wet and the plastic knuckle sheared. All this on the second day, in moderate weather. We were lucky; packed it all up; took it back to shop and demanded a refund. In our decades of camping experience; we have Never experienced such poor quality "expensive" tent.

    We replaced it with an Outw ...

    A truly awful tent. I feel duped out of my money for something that wasn't fit for purpose. I bought a Khyam Chatsworth as it can be put up quickly and no delays trying to work out which pole goes where and then feeding it through seams etc. I have to say though that it's a false economy.
    I have used my tent twice and both times resulted in a complete failure in the tent. The problems are 2-fold.
    1) We experienced leaking along the taped seams even though rainfall was not particularly heavy. I ...
