Anyone have any experience of this tent?
No.
It looks alright. However, I'm going to assume that your £55 only buys the outer and the inner is an additional cost. I'm also going to assume that 1.6kg is the weight for inner / outer / groundsheet combined because otherwise, that's very heavy for a 20d silnylon tarp.

They have the weights for the component parts lower down the page.

530g, that sounds a bit more like what you'd expect

£80 and just over 1kg for the fly and inner seems pretty reasonable to me. I'm sure that Stu could craft a pole to fit?
Only thing putting me off is the terrible colour.

It'll mostly be dark.

I have some myog poles for it although I haven't used them or the tent. It's been erected once in the garden and that's it. Afair it's dark green colors.

I can't say it's 100% the same but it's the same brand and style, yes.

To be honest I'm not keen on the two pole design, and the number of pegs required etc. Thanks though
