Description

The declared capacity is 6 people, so imagine how luxurious this is when you have no less than 192 ft² (17.8 m²) of the inner area plus 41 ft² (3.8 m²) under the porch. This gives around 32 ft² (3 m²) of the inner area per person. So the declared capacity here is very generous, and this is not always so as you can read in my separate textwhere I discuss the issue of the tent capacity. See the dimensions and the floor plan: Eurohike 6 tent – floor plan and dimensions Large lounge (270cm x 380cm) offers a spacious area to spread out with 2 large windows on either side, 1 doubles up as a door. You also have 2 steel poles 1.8 m each and these are used for the side awning; the pole sections are 60 cm. The fabric The floor is fully waterproof, taped, and sewn-in so you have a complete protection from all sides. You'll want to ensure your tent footprint is the same size as the tent you're pitching – several manufacturers sell footprints specifically to fit certain tent models.

Most tents have thin, collapsible poles made from fibreglass. They often fold up into a compact size and are connected by an elastic cord. They're usually flexible and will need to be bent to fit the shape of the tent canvas during pitching. Once the tents are up, we closely inspect the interior of each one and rate them on how likely campers are to have a comfortable and enjoyable experience that meets their needs. We consider how easy it is to get into and out of the main entrances and sleeping compartments, how bright and roomy the living spaces are, and if we consider there to be enough room for the number of people intended to sleep in the tent.

The picture also shows multiple storage pouches on the wall of the inner tent. Note that each of the bedrooms have several more pouches on the sides. The materials Regarding seasons & climate, the tent is ventilated, tall and pleasant, perhaps a bit more suitable for a cooler climate. The waterproof rating is very good so you are fully protected. I would describe it as a true 3-season tent. All rooms are full height standing rooms. The living area is huge, more than 10 square meters, and with all those windows on its three sides. It's very common for manufacturers to be generous about the number of people they say can fit inside their tents. The number they give will be technically true, but it probably won't account for the space needed for campers' belongings, or the space people need for a comfortable night's sleep. A tent with more than one door can help with airflow, assisting with ventilation and also gives you more flexibility to enter and leave the tent through the most convenient doorway. 8) Number and size of windows

There is also a wide gap between the inner tent canopy and the shell, so this is useful to reduce condensation. The living room alone has more than 10 square meters of the fully protected area, so 6 more people can easily sleep there. This would be suitable for a large group of friends at some summer festival or any similar event. Tensioning can be difficult causing difficulty in zipping up doors but maybe it was our inexperience A good rule of thumb is to go for a tent that's claimed to sleep one more person than you need. If you're a family of four, for example, we'd recommend going for a five-person tent. There are two doors, one is under the porch so it is fully protected from the rain and this is a dry entry point. The other door is on the side.An optional awning or canopy can provide protection from the sun and rain, creating a shaded area from which to enjoy the outdoors without having to stay inside your tent. 10) Extra features Not all tents have indoor communal spaces that can house all the campers if the weather turns, and even those that do aren't always large enough for everyone to be comfortable.

The inner sleeping area is what they call the darkened bedroom, so glare is reduced and you can sleep longer in the morning. The tent is not freestanding, so you have to stake it to the ground properly. The inner tent material is what they call a darkened bedroom, so this puts it in the group of dark rest tents. This tent is designed for areas with lots of rain, there is no mesh in its structure, the windows are a solid translucent material, so I would not use it in warm areas. This is for a cooler environment.There is a zippered port for an electric cableand you also have a series of Velcro loops that run from the port to the ceiling so that you can pass a cable for electric lighting or ventilator. The inner tent is the yellow area in the floor plan picture below. There is also a front porch which offers an area for sitting in the shade. The tent is tunnel shaped and non-freestanding. The floor plan and dimensions.

Tent footprints are available to buy separately from tents at outdoor retailers. They're essentially an extra groundsheet that you can pitch before your tent, with the aim of pitching your tent on top of it. There are also tents with inflatable poles. You'll need to pump up each pole individually, so it can take a bit of effort, but you can avoid trying to feed the poles through the tent canvas. If you have used this product please leave a review, or your comments for other visitors, many thanks! The fabric: The shell fabric is a polyester with a 4000 mm waterproof rating. The seams are taped. They do not provide information about the floor material, but note that it is fully sewn-in and sealed.The inner tent has yet another extra floor. TheHampton 6 tent offers lots of headroom due to its height which is 82.7 inches (210 cm), and due to elbow sections on either side of the top which givesextra width.We inspect the interiors of the tents during and after testing to see how each fares against the elements. Some tents manage to stay firm, but others blow over and even have puddles in the sleeping compartments. The tent body is the fly, the same material is everywhere, so it is fully waterproof with taped seams. You have a 3000 mm hydrostatic head. This is a great value and comparable to some winter tents. See more about the waterproof rating in my separate text. There are currently no images uploaded by members for this Tent. If you have a photo, be the first to upload one. Seasons-wise, this tent comes with an impressive waterproof rating which makes it suitable for any conditions in a 3-season use. The tent has mesh on the doors, and in addition to this, they have added several vents. You have low vents on the long sides plus a large rear vent behind the bedrooms area. the inner bedrooms have openings that match the rear vent so you can keep them open for more air, see one in the picture: Inner bedrooms with vents.
