Quechua tents
Hi folks:
Quechua 2 seconds pop-up tents by Decathlon are not very popular in North America- in fact you can only get them from ebay. Therefore these tents are award-winning in Europe and I can say that the average user does not need much more than this: easy to set, compact, waterproof and with excelent bug protection. I have used them for years:
Price usually is around $200.
so... how.. is that to fit in my pack??
C'mon, I would barely trust that on a drunkin Ontario July long weekend 10' from the car. And it didn't rain. Or the wind wasn't up.
Ok ok.. Its the internet, I don't mean to roast the OP, but with 'one' posting as a new member, my Spidey sence is kinda feeling like.. this.. is a cheap plug.
Please..the owner of this site and the guys & gals who peruse this website in the global myriad of ski porn don't need to see this amateur & shameless plug for something that'd be on sale at Crappy Tire.
<just my opinion..>

Sorry Dromo,
I didn't want to upset you. I thought new users are encouraged to share their opinions...
re pack: there are some other Decathlon tents that are available for that purpose..btw Decatlon is no way worst than MEC and other similar brands...in fact it is one of the biggest manufactorers of outdoor equipment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decathlon_Group
Again there are no Decathlon stores in North America but quality is definetly higher than Crappy Tire. Don't take my word for it: just enter in one of their stores in Europe or elsewhere.
