Skandika Saturn Tent

Have done a lot of 'hard camping' in the past, after many years now trying 'soft camping'. This tent is great for the price. Enjoyed the space, front awning and versatility of the side entrances.First outing included heavy persistant rain and only a few drips got inside. BUT!!! After practise erecting the tent we found it to be poorly manufactured. I've had to cut 3 inches off the poles at the main entrance and the rest could do with an inch off. We are not inexperienced and tried every solution we could assuming we were being stupid, but no! The manufacturers have cut the cloth short! We had no time to return it and I have the wherewithall to solve the problem. Not all buyers will. It's a great tent for the price but order early, put it up, and if it doesn't conform to the instruction guidance 'easy to erect, don't force it'....send it back.

Survived a gale in Cumbria intact and with us dry inside. Absolutely massive. Really easy to put up and down. Takes me about 20 minutes on my own. The skylight is a really nice touch.I really LOVE this tent.Only criticism is that there is nowhere on the sides to tie the guy ropes to the tent (that I could find) so I tied them to the poles. Take note of the weight as I find it very heavy, and it also takes up a lot of room in the car (but worth it!).2014 Edit, it has started leaking at each end of the sunroof. Not a massive amount and it's ok if I put towels under it, but irritating.

Found this tent poorly made you have to step over the heigh buit in ground sheet it ripped on the bottom of the sun canopy leaks on the roof window and around the stitching of the ground sheet the poles seem to long only used it once and never again the only good point is the size it is quite big, if I hadn’t of brought it early in the year and not used till end of may I would have sent it back waste of money

So happy with the tent. Used it on a camping trip ay the weekend, plenty room for me my wife and 2 young children

Roomy

good size tent lot of able to get in for them sunny days

Excellent tent spent 4 days on south coast of England 3 sunny days and 1 day and night with Thunderstorms tent remained dry and comfortable throughout.Easy to pitch with one person.Good qualityOnly criticism is the front entrance does not have a net once you open the zip you let all the bugs in. we left this closed and used both side entrances

Great spacious tent. One of the Black elbow pole connection pieces has arrived damaged. Took some time to errected as instructions are a bit sparse awoke this morning to find more water inside the tent than outside. Leaks like a seive! Such a shame as this has the potential to be an amazing tent. Very disappointed
