I need to get a 10 person one of these for MBLA assessment. Looking for the lightest and most compact packed one I can find at reasonable cost.

So far this one seems good

Any other suggestions please ?

Summitgear.co.uk

Cheaper, just as good and made in the UK. 😀

Lifetime guarantee with free repair service and only £39.99!

That was easy eh?

Cheers

Sanny

If you're needing a 10-man, the Summmitgear ones Sanny recommended will be right on the money. Just watch you don't take off if you have to unpack it on a windy day!

Anyone else who needs a smaller, more packable one, the 3-4 man LESS ones from Mapdec are ace and pack down about a third of the size of most of the other options. I bought one for kayak trips and it saved a shedload of space in my dry bag - [url= https://mapdec.com/products/shelter ]https://mapdec.com/products/shelter[/url] (Sold out at the mo, but worth keeping an eye)
