In the last 3 years I have returned:
A Vango Nitro 200 plus because the inner tent attachment points started to rip after a weeks touring.
Its replacement (Nitro Lite 200+) was returned without even using it as the seams were not finished and there were many loose threads.
A Lightwave G20 Trek – Leaky, impossible to pitch right and flysheet seams separating after a 3 week tour.
A Wild Country Zephyros 1 – inner tent attachment points started to rip after about 6 or 7 uses.
Its replacement was returned for the same reason (it started to rip after one use) plus one of the pole ends did not thread completely into the pole.
Have I just been unlucky or are tents a bit shit nowadays? All of the shops concerned replaced or refunded them without quibble.
I’ve now got a Hilleberg Nallo 2. Fingers crossed.
