Very cheap tent.. £55 with code
Just bought one of these as a spare/just out of interest - if you use code PXCAMP50 it's just £55! next day delivery around £6. I also bought a huge load of stuff sacks and a titanium mug, also half price, same code
I can't comment on the tent's quality but it looks more than fine for that price

Looks very similar to the Alpkit Tetri, although a little lower at 100cm vs 110cm so sitting up in it may be a challenge for some. I like that it's an outer pitch first too, although I can't work out if you can pitch the inner once, then pack it away with the inner already attached, which would be even better!
I may just grab one of these I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

I'll post a review once it arrives, not sure how long the code is around for. I thought it looked similar to Alpkit too.
For the price I think it's worth a punt even if my girls just end up using it on campsites etc. ... If it's deemed too crap for the hillD4 XS, gone, much loved, never forgotten

Why do you do it? Until 7pm I didn't know I needed this or the bike packing tent. Now Ive ordered both!

I wish you hadn't mentioned torches... I just jumped on the Olight site to find a "flash sale" including a torch (Mini Marauder) that I'd been thinking about for a while was "40% off"... two other torches and £300 later I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!

You’ll need a porta-ledge for Tryfan, not a tent

If I'd have known so many people were after tents I'd have listed my North Face Mountain 24 on here Only used a few times and unlikely to be used again (one of the times it was used strangely enough, was a stormy night at Lyn Bochlwyd)
And no this isn't North Wales... far too dry bought in the days when TNF made proper outdoor gear and not just fashion statements like now!I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!

Dam you I’ve just ordered both the two man tents to try for my daughter.
Not bad for £110 Its not the height of the fall but the sudden stop at the bottom that hurts!!

You could always pop over and have a look... although orange isn't much good for hiding next to Dels (fast diminishing) wood pile I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!
