The large family tent has a tunnel design with interior zips so campers can create different sections within the tent. Plus, it’s said to be ‘easy to assemble’, a must for many, there’s nothing worse than getting to a site and the tent taking hours to put up.
It’s not the only tent on sale at Debenhams, this teepee style Outsunny one is reduced to less than £100, down from an original £148.99. Elsewhere, and retailer Cotswold Outdoors has a sale on too.
The Outwell Norwood six person tent is currently cut by £130.50 and has been ‘tailored to fit large families or friends’. At Decathlon, the Quechua four-person tent is now £99.99, and has a sleeping compartment off the back of a ‘full height’ living space.
Debenhams shares how easy it is to put up in its listing: “Setting up and taking down the tent is a breeze thanks to the highly flexible and lightweight fibreglass poles and the convenient pin-and-ring connection system.
“The foldable and lightweight design allows you to easily pack the tent and store it in the included carry bag for easy transport.” The Berkfield Home ten is made from polyester with a PU coating, which helps make it withstand rain and wind.
It also has taped seams which can ‘prevent rain infiltration’ and as standard to most tents, it comes with a ground sheet to keep the interior floor dry, and stops it feeling cold or damp from grass condensation.
There are no reviews for the tent on Debenhams site, which has a 2.4 star rating. There are a lot of satisfied shoppers, however a lot of the lowest ratings have been given for ‘slow delivery’.
As one person said: “I buy so much from Debenhams that I love – but it is a shame that it’s a struggle if you need to return an item.” While another shopper said: “Received two lovely dresses pretty quickly. Sadly, neither for different reasons were suitable so I returned them within two days …. then I waited for over four weeks for a refund.”
