Description

Our Opinion:-

Recently there has been a growing fashion towards Bell or Tipi tents. The Field Tower is a tipi style  tent with an extended porch that will sleep up to 8 people.

The Advantages of a Tipi Style tent like the Field Base are the ease of pitching, with just one central pole and the strength of the design in bad weather. The strongest shape for a tent is a triangle, and the Field Base is a Conical shape basicly a 360 degree triangle. A Disadvantage of this style tent is the sloping sides mean water entering the tent and gathering on the groundsheet whenever its raining and you enter or ext the tent. The Field Tower overcomes this because it has a generous porch area.

There is an optional inner tent available to separate off the central living are making the tent a 6 berth.

A Tent that will ensure you enjoy your camping experience, will stand up to the worst and best of the British Weather. The Field Station is an ideal tent for  families or groups.The only way to improve on this tent is to look at some of Robens Outback range of polycotton Bell Tents & Tipis which give the Cool Camping advantages of Camping under Cotton

What the manufacturer says:-

The Field Tower sleeps up to eight or can be used with an optional six-person two-door inner, making it an excellent quick-to-pitch base for groups. The tipi features a telescopic alloy centre pole and a zip-in groundsheet that can be rolled back in the large extended front porch to create a wet area. A pre-bent pole maximises porch headroom. Three low vents assist airflow and the neat Internal Apex Vent Control is simple to adjust from inside using just two cords.

Robens Wind Test: The determination of the performance of a Robens tent in wind is based on the knowledge and technique available to Robens at the time of testing. During the test we register the maximum (MAX) speed impact a tent was subjected and the average (AVG) wind speed at which structural instability occurred. This may appear as a broken/deformed pole, or the collapse of the tent and subsequent return to shape when the wind drops. At no point was any form of catastrophic failure experienced up to the maximum wind speed.
