http://www.campingnews.co.uk/anm/2008 Wynnster Mercury 9 Person Family TentLooking for a large family tent, and one from a UK tent manufacturer to boot?

Well take a look at the Mercury 9 which sleeps up to 9 people.

 

 

The Wynnster Mercury 9 is a large family tent that sleeps up to 9 people.

The recommended time to erect the tent is 35 minutes which although may seem like a long time for such a large family tent is not bad.

The tent has three doors and four windows.

Three bedrooms are idea where mum and dad want one room, the boys want their own room and the girls especially demand their own room !

Made from fire retardant polyester with a durable sewn in ground sheet and pole made from superflex fibreglass with a colour coded system that makes the tent easier to erect.

The Mercury 9 is erected by setting the fly sheet first by laying the fly sheet on the ground then inserting the superflex poles using the colour coding system then adding the inner tent.

The Mercury 9 has an optional footprint groundsheet and also an optional tent carpet!

The seams on the tent are fully taped for maximum waterproofing.

The Mercury 9 is 770cm (just over 7.5 meters) long and 540cm (just about 5.5 meters) wide. With a height of 230cm (bit over 7 foot in English) there is plenty of room to stand up.

The tent comes in Dark Green and Mint Green (mixed colour on each tent).

A comparable recommend price for the Mercury 9 is £350 (pounds sterling). Not exactly a "cheap" tent but for its size and quality build certainly a comparable price to other tents of a similar size by other tent manufacturers.

The combined tent and pole wight is just over 27 kg. For those that still stuggle with imagining things in metric this is equivalent to 27 normal size back of sugar. Again not light but managable for the size of tent.
