Skandika Kambo 6 man / 12 man tent for camping | large 6/12 person family tunnel tent, matching groundsheet for living area, 3 entrances, waterproof, cabin with mosquito mesh, for festivals, outdoor

Bought this to replace our 4man old tent. Now we're a growing family we needed more space. . .my wife is 6ft tall and can easily stand with no issues....easy to erect (talking about the tent). We went to the lake district and it rained all weekend and kept the rain out. The sleeping compartment is separate and very dark. Plenty of doors to enter from. Has everything you will ever need and amazing value for money. Definitely built to last.

This tent is massive for 2 people and a dog but it was nice to be able to stand up and not feel like we were cramped. Very easy to set up and pack away glad I read other reviews and knew what I was getting.We tried it in the garden and it stayed perfectly dry when it rained so that was the first test passed. While away we had beautiful weather and found the tent gets very hot very fast with the sun on it but having 3 doors and window vent made it a little more bearable.The black material of the bedroom compartment was great, at night with a bright light on inside it didn't become see through and in the mornings it was dark enough to stay asleep past sunrise.

Tent arrived very quickly, took it camping to the coast, weather forecast was storms. Opened the tent and assembled very quickly with 2 people, huge tent but only 3 poles to insert helps speed up pitching time, if you are used to a smaller tent it will take you a bit longer but is 100% worth it for the extra space and head height. I am just shy of 6ft tall and was stood the entire time inside, luxury as only ever had smaller tents. The ground sheet is not sewn in or bath tub which is what the description says, it is a spring tent, so no need to negatively review the tent because of this, it was very hot and the extra air flow in the front area was nice, dont leave food out and you wont get ants. I'd advise pitching the ground sheet further back into the tent just to ensure you get good clearance of the outer tent over the ground sheet at the front if it was to rain, to ensure the groundsheet would be well covered. The front porch poles were really sturdy with guy ropes supporting, perfect for a bit of shade whilst you cook etc. This was one of the reasons I wanted this tent, after cooking in full sun it was great to cook in some shade. The porch roof can open to the front or to the left, something to bear in mind as I thought it might be able to open left and right, the right side is a window with a mesh vent which is another nice feature. The bedroom cabin is also huge for 2 people and easy to hook in and hang up, there isn't a divider screen like other tents have inside the cabin so you dont lose any space, or spend extra time setting up two bedrooms. The lining is darkened but is not blackout if you want blackout, it is less than half blackout I would say, but having some light in the bed area was very useful to be able to see as its such an open space you can actually use it instead of it just being a bedroom. The feature of opening the bedroom cabin is also excellent for those longer stays where you want to lie down and rest but want some fresh air to flow in and let some of the heat of the tent out. I haven't tried this tent in harsh winds or rain but the quality of the material and guy ropes gives me confidence it would hold up, there's also an additional 2 guy ropes, I searched for where to put them but could not find anything, you could use these for extra support in harsher weather though to support where any wind was coming in. I think this is a great tent perfect for 2 people and our needs, but the negative reviews made me doubt this so I thought I'd write this in case other people gave it a miss based on the bad reviews and I hope my review helps you decide if it's right for you or not! Top features, speed to pitch and take down, head height, open spaces, porch flap/roof, darkened bedroom.

Bought this for myself and my wife to go camping with the dogs. Really nice comfortable size for us. The bedroom compartment had a king size blow up mattress and plenty of room to store suitcases etc. the living section had 2 bucket chairs , table, camping kitchen and stove and dog cage with room to walk around. It says it’s for spring/summer and shower resistant but we had a huge storm with high winds and hailstones with torrential rain and it withstood everything. Really pleased with this and would definitely recommend to anyone wanting this size tent

Not as needed

Put the tent up in the garden, like the look of it, easy to put up, I thought I would ask about spare poles as bound to need some at some point, was told not available in the UK. I'm not sure we would of brought this tent had we known that.

Instructions are useless for a tent novice ,tried you tube in endOnce it's up its great handles the weather,rain or windMaterial a bit light though so morning arrives early. Easily sleeps 5Overall I would say a good buy

Easy to pitch. Roomey. Very waterproof. Lots of head room.
