With 5 out 5 star reviews on the Go Outdoors website , one reviewer stated –
‘I went to the shop pretty sceptical but was impressed how sturdy it was. Just used it for the first time and it’s even better than I thought, we put it up in quite a strong wind and it was still a piece of cake. It takes longer to peg out than it does to put up! Keeps it’s shape in windy conditions whilst other tents are rocking about. Definitely highly recommended and worth the money if you go camping regularly, I expect it to last us many years’
