Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Try one of the go outdoors stores www.gooutdoors.co.uk
Not sure what the quality is like as I'm not a camping man, but they quite often have them erect (snigger snigger) in the shops so you can have a good look and try out their erections

Edit - vango tigris 800

Hahaha... Funny that... It's yet to be used! Got it and was then battered by rain so didn't get a chance to use it. Did do alot of reading on it though and have seen similar vango ones up and they look good. They also have extra support straps you clip together in the case of high winds. I bought the zigzag type pegs for it though as tunnel tents require the guy lines to stay u...Flip side is its only 5 poles I think. Large dome tents can be a nightmare to put up.
