mikey replied: 9 meters by 10 meters give or take a few cm
+ I CAN ANSWER!   mige asks : How big is the porch
+ I CAN ANSWER!   Anon asks : We have aquired a diablo 900 tent and on testing it out in the garden we were very puzzled why one of the longer poles would not fit into the pin rings as it seemed to be about 2 sections too long! We have puzzled it out and tried other ways possible but to no avail! The 3 longer poles are different in length - does any one else know if this is correct - we have 2 black poles and one blue (porch) pole, plus the bedroom poles. The black ones seem to be the problem. If anyone can give advice we would appreciate it!
+ I CAN ANSWER!   Anon asks : How much head room is there in the bedrooms?
+ I CAN ANSWER TOO! kaz asked : is it good tent?
andy replied: It\'s a lovely tent but be aware that campsites were not designed for it. Many campsites will not accept tents bigger than 7 metres and those that will tend to have a limited number of pitches. Plus the sewn in ground sheets do the ground no good at all
Riggwelter says : The early 900 model suffered from a tight inner groundsheet which resulted in left hand side of groundsheet not sitting on the ground & tearing the corners,Got tents twice replaced f.o.c due to the problem.Have nothing but praise for the staff at Vango who listened to our problems & replaced the last one with a 900XP what a difference no saggy bedrooms, everything fits great, Better tunnel arrangement on the old one with no side door, but hey fab tent but needs a bit of room at 10 x 10 meters is what you need to pitch, we struggled at first to find the sites but they are out there

Danny says : Had this tent for a couple of years, in the end it was wrecked when pole snapped when taking it down in strong winds and ripped through the inner and fly sheet. A good all round tent, very spacious with plenty of room for 5 people sitting inside when it is raining outside. Negative points are: 1. Its a big beast and can be awkward to put up get down, especially in strong winds. 2. Small number of windows - keeps it warm when its cold but can be claustrophobic. 3. It takes up a big pitch and so positioning can be difficult.

Doyley says : This is a fantastic family tent, spacious and relatively easy to put up given it\'s size. The only problem we have encountered is when one of our kids tore the zip - which was repaired to a first class standard by Camperlands in Manchester. I would say that it is a pity that the door to the front porch area does not extend to form a canopy (as on the Aspen), but that\'s a minor grumble. We will be purchasing a sun canopy to give a bit more shelter to the porch but you could easily live with it as it stands. I\'m tall and I have plenty of headroom in the central area and the bedrooms are more than adequate. We\'ve had Vango tents and equipment before and we have never had any problems.
