BIG AND STABLE!

Size! - its high enough that you can stand almost everywhere and takes my family of 4 easily (splitting the two girls nicely ;-) ) Has stood up to all the weather that has been thrown at it and is quick and easy to pitch and strike. I like the compactness of the footprint in fact that it dosn't have huge 'wings' and miles of guys!
I feel the bag could do with handles at the ends as well sa the middle to maek it possible to carry it through a doorway between two! Not sure if I'm too struck with the windows , I have a nagging feeling i'm gonna regret them in a few years when the plastic perishes! - personally HATE pole and peg bags made from groundsheet material!
Graet value, loads of space

THE BIG GREEN IGLOO

The poles are quite thick and seem strong, only took 40 minutes to erect, good considering i have not camp for nearly 30 years, loads of space, you dont have to walk around with a stoop, i love the colour, i'm not into bright orange or sky blue.
weight, about 60 pounds, i split it in two, the outer and half the poles and the inner sleeping units with the other half, it makes it easier to move around, i think a bigger ground sheet would be better, so you could take the sleepers down and get more people in, i would also of liked a mesh inner door, then you can have the front flap open and the flies cant get in.
Even with the couple of minor points (me being fickle) i love it, i paid £215.00 from my local supplier (jacksons of arley)who price matched an online dealer, it pays to stay local sometimes, if it would fit in my garden i would use it for the whole summer ( a bit of peace from the 2 teenagers) i love my big green igloo.

VERY SPACIOUS

Easy to erect and take down, very stable, we survived very strong winds and thunder storm with no ill effects. Bags of living space and height.
Ground sheet does not cover all areas especially front of tent area and if all sleeping areas are not erected there is no ground sheet for that area. Front canopy is flimsy when on poles - we had to add extra guy ropes. Could do with more ventilation - gets very hot.
Very good value for money - we only paid £195.00 so makes cheap family accommodation.

BAGS OF SPACE FOR OUR FAMILY OF 4. EASY TO ERECT & STABLE

Loads of height means I can stand up anywhere inside, i'm six foot but it still has enough headroom. Very stable design and as I paid £230 is good value.
Ground sheet does not go out to door area. If door is up on poles forming canopy there is no secondary door to keep out wind etc.
Good accomodation, stable design, easy to erect and take down,Lots of cheap space for a family !
