Hi got this today just give it a wee try in the kitchen as its wet outside and it went up really fast, and is so light..! Think i will take a couple of extra pegs for the mmm as the ones with it are very small and might not be great on uneven ground.

Will report back after the mmm.........!!

Got mine from these guy's http://worldofcamping.co.uk/shop/coleman_rigel_x2_tent__1665 (http://worldofcamping.co.uk/shop/coleman_rigel_x2_tent__1665)  fast enough on delivery but £9.99 for delivery to N.I (outer monglia) also came packed in bubble wrap and that black bag cling film stuff very hard to get off without thinking your gonna do damage to the tent, I have e mailed them about this so it will be interesting to see if they change how they pack it in the future..!

It went up so easy, just 2 poles one for either end and they only go in a short sleve along the top and are colour coded too, it fold's up into its own pocket on the gound sheet but i further rolled it up and it is in a mesh stuff sack for a watherproof coat i had very compact...!

I might put it up outside before the mmm on a night that is going to be wet and see how it dose   :o
