The 600DLX is much the same as the Colorado 600 but there are 3 sleeping compartments each holding 2 people (instead of 2 compartments holding 2 and 4 respectively). | Site | Price | Postage | Total |

Vango Colorado 600DLX Tent Reviews
Reviewed by Mick Collinson (Leeds) on 2006-08-15:
General comments: I bought this Vango Colorado 600 DLX tent last year as the kids are bigger now and wanted separate bedrooms. Have to say I'm extremely dissapointed.
After first use one of the inner tents had to be replaced because of a faulty seam. Now after four uses the groundsheet has broken up and all the "rings" have torn away.
The d loops holding the tent down have all split and the tie downs for the fly have ripped the tent seams. This is really down to very sub-standard material for the groundsheet and base of the fly.
Apart from that the design of the Vango Colorado 600DLX is poor. The fly has only one guy to keep it away fromn each pod, and in wet weather the guys fail and the fly comes into contact with the pods and they get soaked. Two guys would be commonsense. But that apart, the guys won't maintain friction once wet so the whole tent becomes unstable - it's as if the guy was too small a diameter.
Hate to be so negative but this one's going back to Vango next week, let's see how good their customer service is.
Pros: nice and roomy
Cons: naff colour and see above.

AJH responded : Couldn't agree more re: the poor construction/ make quality of the Colorado 600DLX. The simplest bits just come off in your hand and it ian't sufficiently weatherproof for August in the UK - Colorado must be different. All that space and headroom is lovely, but not at the expense of it staying up in anything stronger than a light breeze, and/ or waking up sodden because it drizzled a bit. Oh, and the height makes it an absolute pig to pitch and strike in other than flat calm, too. (2007-02-22)
