Description
A great tent from Skandika. We bought this tent last year as a starter tent for me to try camping. Turns out I actually quite enjoyed it so this year we are progressing to a bigger tent so we can all go more often. Easy to assemble - even for beginners! Used twice last year - (2 weeks total) and can withstand the good old British rain quite well.
The HELSINKI is a versatile tunnel style tent for families and groups of up to 6 people.
Quick and easy to assemble and also offers a sturdy home with good weather protection. With its modern colours the HELSINKI is attractive on the outside and the mosquito mesh on the windows and breathable tent material make it practical on the inside.
The sleeping cabin is at the back of the tent and has a divider so that it can also be used as two smaller sleeping areas, if required.
The HELSINKI's biggest advantage is its versatility. The front wall of the tent can be zipped into one of two positions, giving you either a very generous inside living area or a sizely porch at the front of the tent which can serve as a sheltered outside sitting area, a play area or somehwere out of the wind and rain to do your cooking.
The tent also has a second groundsheet included so that however you decide to use your space, you will always have nice dry feet!
The water column value of a tent gives information about the quality and strength of its waterproofness. A tent is considered suitably waterproof at 1200 mm. The HELSINKI has a water column of 5000 mm and provides very good protection from the weather.
The HELSINKI poles are made of shatterproof fibreglass and are extremely sturdy and yet also flexible: a very welcome combination. The tent has tear resistant material, taped seams and reinforced eyelets and tabs.
Included are a handy carrying bag with assembly instructions, all necessary accessories (guy ropes, tent pegs etc.)
