    I have the original Sunncamp Evolution 400 version. I particularly like the way it goes up so fast, even with no help, the all-in-one pitching, plenty of windows and ventilation, and the tub groundsheet keeping insects and rain completely out. Had no problem with rain ingress, as long as the doors are kept shut. No problems with the zips either, after many weekend trips. I got the carpet too, very nice under your feet. The cheap tarp from Decathlon will keep the rain off a door if you want to leave one open. I have got the problem with the split orange pole though, I replaced it with a slightly shorter 8mm pole which has also split. Waiting to hear from SunGard if they can offer a replacement. I think it originally split when strong winds were blowing against the front of the tent. Best to pitch it with the rear facing any wind.

    Ostensibly the Evolution is a great tent and very reasonably priced (£110 in 2007). Its semi-geodesic design makes it very stable in windy conditions in comparison to equivalently sized dome & tunnel designs. It will sleep 4 relatively comfortably with a living area that is almost as big as the sleeping accommodation and a full 2 metre headroom at the centre.

    The sealed bucket groundsheet means that the interior stayed dry during the infamous Glastonbury downpours in 2007. The inner te ...

    Sunncamp Evolutions is an excellent tent alround but needs an add on awning for rain at door openings but I will still but another one.

    This Sunncamp Evolution 400 tent goes up in 5 minutes, very simple very fast and even on my own I can do it in 15 minutes. Sewn in groundsheet, standing room throughout although it is compact if you have to spend a long time inside due to bad weather. Just enough room for table, chairs and our cupboard and cool box.

    We have used it in great weather and very bad weather and I know that other people have found leaks but we have always stayed very dry when the doors have been done up. It is also ...

    I've used this tent on many occasions and unlike the other reviewer i have had no problem at all with it. I bought the 2008 Sunncamp Evolution model which is different from the previous version. The rain protection around the zips and other modifications make it way better. The Lake District weather can throw 4 seasons in one day and this never leaked once or felt like it was going to blow away.

    Easily fits in 2 air beds with plenty of room to spare. The vestibule bit is also pretty big with en ...

    Good looking tent, but I would not recommend you buy the Sunncamp Evolution 400. Leaked like a burst pipe. Could not believe the raindrops falling inside the tent from the fabric. Tried it once and sent it back to supplier. Better taking the kids Wendy house on a rainy weekend.
