Vango Purbeck 600XL Family Tent [Amazon Exclusive], Large 6 Man Tent with 3 Rooms, Enclosed Porch Area, Double Living Area, Climate Windows - Vivid Grey

I’m very pleased with this tent I brought it in June but this is the 1st time I’ve used it it is very roomy lots of space unfortunately it’s pouring down with rain outside but we are dry inside easy to put up I’ve seen some very negative reviews but as far as I am concerned this is a cheap tent well worth what I paid

This tent is really good, it has a good internal space. We were under torrential rain last camping and it hold strong with no leakes at all. Good ventilation thanks to the mesh panels and nice big windows. It's a good value for money.

I’m yet to use this in an official camping situation, but I did a trial run in the garden to see what it was like to put up.I have to say, the instructions that come with the tent are SO basic, I was worried I was missing something. I looked on the company website and YouTube to find more information before I started, but there wasn’t anything. I checked the reviews here- and like a few others have said, the poles are different lengths and that was incredibly useful to know and also which goes where because it doesn’t state these things on the instructions. So, thank you other reviewers!Once you figure out the poles, this tent is incredibly easy to put up. It’s so spacious inside, it’s wider than you may expect, the sleeping area is big enough to sleep four very comfortably.The front ‘porch’ area is quite narrow, but there is so much space in the middle section- easily enough room to hang out with family/friends. I will get to use it properly in a few weeks, so we will see how it lasts when tested against the elements!

Only used twice and 2 of the black poles have split so wish a replacement

This is a great tent for family of 4 but it is a lower spec. Perfect when camping in fair weather but we recently camped in daily heavy rain showers and the water pooled on the roof even though the guy lines were being used correctly. Even when the water wasn't pooling, the heavy rain compromised the tent fabric and we could feel spray coming down from the roof. Two of the poles also snapped whilst assembling our tent for the third time - they're fibreglass so splinters can be nasty.My husband and I can stand up in this tent which is a massive bonus. We have a table and 4 chairs set up in the "lounge area". The porch is also big enough to use for food prep in bad weather.Bedroom liners are slightly darkened but not black-out like the Quechua version.Overall - good tent, bit tricky to erect, and not great for heavy rain

Tent is easy to assemble, tip for pitching is one set of poles is colour coded (grey) for bedroom part, other poles are black for the rest of the tent. When pitching find as flat an area as possible. The tent itself is a great size with loads of room to store kit, bedrooms a good size can be left as one big space or split with dividers to create 2 or 3 spaces, I had mine as one big space which was great for us. The windows and living area door also has mozzy netting to keep bugs out but also let's air flow through that helps great with keeping condensation down. Only improvements vango could make is the side door could have a mozzy net aswell, think it would make it better, but even without this it's still one of the best tents iv ever used, wonder if vango will bring out an extension for the side door in the future. Great value for money. Would recommend.

We took this tent down to the Forest of Dean for a 4 night stay, to start with it is quite an easy tent to erect for two and you must put the correct pole in the right position, they are colour coded. Once erected it is a great size tent with adequate sleeping and living areas with vented windows and a front door and side door. The front section is really useful for keeping chairs and cooking equipment in without having to clutter up the living area. The tent was subjected to hot weather and a rather fierce storm and never leaked or was compromised during this.The only down side for me would be the absence of a fly sheet on the side door and on hot days it can be difficult to allow a breeze through without letting in the fly's and midges.We will be taking it out to the south coast for a week and following our previous camp we are looking forward to another trouble free break.

Impressive Tent! A lot of space for a family to live in. There is an inner tent for the bedrooms that you can separate in 2/3 bedrooms and a family/living area plus the porch. It is a robust and waterproof tent with loads of windows, so in the day there is plenty of light, that you can all cover for privacy at night. The only thing I would advice is, as it is a large tent, be definitely two to set it up.
