Outsunny Large Tunnel Tent A20-351V00CG (Dark Grey, 6-9 Person)

How many people can this tent accommodate?

The tent officially sleeps 6-9 people across three bedrooms. Each bedroom measures 220cm x 188cm and can fit 2-3 people depending on sleeping arrangements. For maximum comfort, 6 people works well with 2 per bedroom. The capacity depends on whether you're using single sleeping bags, double airbeds, or sharing space with gear storage.

Does the living area have a groundsheet?

No, the central living area and porch do not include sewn-in groundsheets. Only the three bedrooms have integral floor protection. You'll need to purchase separate groundsheets for the living space if you want full floor coverage. This design allows for easy cleaning and direct ground contact when preferred.

How waterproof is this tent in heavy rain?

The tent offers 2000mm hydrostatic head water resistance, which handles moderate to heavy rainfall effectively. However, some users report seam leakage issues, particularly around stitched areas. For optimal waterproofing, consider seam sealing the tent before first use. The bedroom floors provide good moisture protection from ground water.

How long does it take to set up?

Assembly typically takes 30 minutes with two people. The sleeve pole system makes setup straightforward - fibreglass poles slide through fabric sleeves for positioning. However, the tent's large size (830cm x 720cm) makes it challenging in windy conditions. Having multiple people helps manage the fabric during setup, especially in breezy weather.

What's included in the package?

The complete kit includes the tent, 41 steel ground stakes, 14 guy ropes, 2 fibreglass support poles, lantern hook, carry bag and assembly manual. The guy ropes come separately and need attaching to the tent. The steel stakes work well in most ground conditions, though you might want additional heavy-duty pegs for rocky terrain.

How does this tent perform in windy conditions?

The tent struggles in anything stronger than light breezes according to user feedback. The large surface area and tunnel design make it susceptible to wind pressure. Proper guy rope tensioning and additional stakes help, but it's not recommended for exposed or consistently windy locations. Choose sheltered pitches when possible.

What are the packed dimensions and weight?

When packed, the tent measures 80cm x 28cm x 33cm and weighs 18kg. The carry bag makes transport manageable, though the weight requires consideration for hiking trips. The size fits in most car boots but check your vehicle's capacity. For backpacking, this tent is better suited to car camping or short walks to pitches.

Can adults stand up inside the tent?

Yes, the maximum height of 225cm allows most adults to stand upright in the central living area. The bedrooms are lower at 150cm high, requiring stooping or crawling. The tunnel design means full height is only available down the centre line - sides slope down significantly. This provides good headroom for dining and changing clothes.
