Re: kyham utility tent
That's probably what's going to have happened to mine as well unless one of the neighbours has taken it in (we have a lot of retired people living nearby and they are very good at taking in parcels).

Re: kyham utility tent
Well mine has arrived the postman just coincided with my husband getting back home after dropping me off at the station! We put it up, very easy to do and its larger than I though it might be, all good so far but I obviously didnt look at the picture very closely as it doesn't actually have a door and no guy ropes either so you couldn't really use it outdoors which was the plan!
However it's a nice little 'tent tidy' so we will probably be able to do just that when we take the day tent with us. All in all it was cheap so no great loss that I can't use it as I thought and it will come in useful I'm sure!

Re: kyham utility tent
i also didn't notice the lack of a door,its basically a shelving unit to be used inside an awning,i guess this is why they are so cheap.

Re: kyham utility tent
Shame that it has no door,but if you can use it in the awning its not a total loss.

Re: kyham utility tent
Vicki can you please let me know if you do find a smallish one for use outside that's not to expensive. We have got our little pop up to use when we don't take the day tent, but I am looking at alternatives.

Re: kyham utility tent
It would be nice to be able to get a pvc porch awning that used part of the normal awning frame,smaller lighter and quick to erect.
