RRP £570.00
description

The standing-height bedrooms in all side cabins – made possible by the Outwell Extended Frame System (OEF System) – are one of the major features in the Hartford XXL. Another popular feature is the outside pole construction which enables easy one-procedure pitching – flysheet first, or all as one. This roomy and refined tent sleeps up to 12 persons, and offers amenities such as pre-attached inner tents with O-shaped stow-away doors, as well as handy mesh organiser pockets. Protected by a sewn-in groundsheet, the spacious living area is well-lit by large windows and two skylights, and complemented by the extended porch with a detachable groundsheet.

A fantastic tent all round.

Purchased the 2009 model and what a fantastic tent.

SIG (sewn in groundsheet) keeps out all the wind and bugs. Easy to put up (about 45mins).

There is acres of room, it has 4 bedroom pods which will house 3 people each on mats or 2 with an air bed with room to spare.

The center room will seat 10 easily around the card table and has lots of pockets, light holders and cable tidies.

All in alll this is a fantastic familly tent.

We have used ours on 2 trips now and have to say it is amazing.

The bedrooms easily sleep 2 on airbeds and we had 10 sitting in the main room on a windy wet night last week and it was comfortable.

We erected the tent in a rainy gale and the all in one pitching makes it a breeze.

This tent is huge and stands up to the worst of the weather while still being practical and relatively cheap.

Mmm a little dissapointed

Well i did the first review on this but at the end of my first season with this tent i have found a problem.

The problem is that i have now broken the poles 4 times in 4 outings and it seems there may be a problem here with the poles.

I was happy, then a little dissapointed but my faith is being renewed.

After taking to Oase (outwell) and sending them pictures of my poles that showed the holes in the middle being larger than usuall they have replaced all my poles, so happy days and thank you outwell
