i mail ordered it through our local camping shop afew years ago. have a look at exped.com.

i'm not chuffed with their after sales service mind, asked them a question 2 weeks ago about the ideal height and still have had no reply...

That looks very small, how many people does it sleep, it looks like a single sleeper.

you can sleep 2 and kit, but its tight. 1 and a dog + kit is comfy. i've been in one during a down poor with 2 others, their kit and pooch and it was comfy, but there were chairs involved - makes a difference! its all about how you use the space. if you need more room there's always bigger tipi's out there.

I sleep in mine with me, my kit and dog (even though he's quite small so probably doesn't count as taking up room) and its comfy for a while. Obviously, if you were intending to camp long-term you would probably want something bigger just for extra comfort, but for short-term (longest I've spent in it at any one time is 10 days) it is comfy and roomy, especially since if the weather is good is anyone wanting to be anywhere but outside their home (Tipi, tarp, tent etc.)?
