This was a replacement tent, I had looked long and hard to find one that was as good as my last tent. I was very impressed with this tent. The bedrooms are HUGE. Head height at least 6.5ft, each bedroom definitely a large double. The front door opening while VERY useful when its hot -- can be slightly too large. We leave it open even when raining as we also use a gazebo - but do this at your peril, the front door is very wide. Its a light and airy tent. We used it in various weather conditions and not one drop of rain has came in the tent (used on four occasions now) 2 festivals, and 2 general camping expeditions.
I usually get a new tent every year. But I bought this one last year and I used it again this year. Unless something amazing comes up - I will probably use it again next year.
We like this vango! Its so easy to erect (the easiest tent I have ever erected and I have put up few over the years). Pitching outer poles first is brilliant, especially if it is raining - or if there is a bit of rain, as it feels pretty stable way before you have the pegs in the ground.
We have recommended this tent, and some friends only last week said that they were going to look out for one similar.
The instructions on the bag are confusing though, we thought there were pieces missing, when actually it was instructions for another tent!
