What are the best makes of pop up tents and which one would you say is the best for a 4 man highly waterproof tent. I do not want anything but a pop up/quick pitch tent, and it's need to be easy to buy online from the uk
Answer
Millets have some good deals on at the moment. Eurohike have a corny name but they are pretty good for the price.
Buy online or in your local shop....link below.
You want highly waterproof pop-up 4-person tent for £70 though.
Ok. I'd like a Mercedes Sl35 but pay for a Ford Fiesta. We can dream.
The waterproofing is still OK though even on budget tents as long as you're not going to the Highlands or the Hebridean islands on a wet blowy day or expecting it to let in absolutely no rain during a four day rainy festival.
I use one to save wear and tear on my good tents for fishing off the rocks and beaches and for local walks in the hills where it can blow pretty bad and chuck it down, but that's close to home.
Nothing too bad if the tent fails. So far it's been OK but I pitch tighly and in as much shelter as I can find on our windswept hills with the tent orientated for the best wind protection.
To get the best performance you need to pitch it tight with no loose bits anywhere. Water runs off tight fabrics instead of collecting in puddles or making little rivers.
If it's got guy lines (some pop-up's don't) then get them well placed and tightened up all round to keep even pressures on the tent in wind. Pop-up's are not made for rough conditions-
If you buy a tunnel tent, as the pop-up's mostly are, you can use a sheet of polythene or a big lightweight groundsheet from B&Q, Aldi, Homebase etc as an extra cover. They have eyelets already fitted and you can use plastic coated washing line for guy lines.
It also gives more wind protection by helping to keep the tent stable in wind and aids the pegs in keeping the tent fixed to the ground if it's pegged out well enough, and it saves wear on the tent.
When you pitch the tent it's best to put a groundsheet down first and pitch the tent over it. Then tuck in the groundsheet all round and water flowing off the tent will stay outside and not soak in under the floor. It also keeps the base of the tent clean and dry and again saves wear and tear.
Like this groundsheet for a small one. It looks like Glencoe but it's in Peru.

It's best to buy some strong pegs. The pegs supplied with budget tents are never much good and for a pop-up tent in a wind you could be saying bye-bye to the tent as happened at Glastonbury this year.
