Bit of a sad day for me today - our brand new used only once Vango Airbeam Kinetic 600 tent has had to be returned to the shop.
Unfortunately last weekend on our first camping trip with it - yes you guessed it - it sprang several leaks.
Vango really need to sort out the Airbeam tents.
Erecting the tent was a doddle. We pegged out the footprint. Pegged out the tent on top and pumped up the beams. Brilliant, or so we thought until the rain started and the tent started dripping. Seems the 10000HH ground sheet wasn't sufficiently attached to the 6000HH top sheet. What a waste of my time and money. We spent a fortune on petrol picking it up from a well known store's show (not to mention the groundsheet and carpet I'm now stuck with!!) and you can imagine my disappointment when the leaks happened.
Just goes to show that even if you pay a fortune for a tent, it can still leak.
On the plus side I got a full refund - what to buy next ???
