Hi, we bought the outwell oakland xl thinking we were buying one of the best makes of tents, what a disapointment. We where camping in Cumbria in the early hours of the morning it became very windy in a matter of a hour our metal poles of the tent had broken resulting in our tent being destroyed, we where left with nothing more than a damaged canvas what we stood up in and all poles broken. we were using storm pegs so dont know what more we could of done. Outwell is impossable to contact the store said we are not covered for storm damage, but to me this is a manufaturing falt DO NOT BUY A OUTWELL TENT other couple that had the outwell montana had the same problem and their tent was destroyed also
Just spent £840 on an Outwell Maryland XL package deal from and internet supplier,used it 3 times and it has leaked every time, supplier has just taken it back and are going to “test” it with a high power hose, cant see them being able to replicate the three days of solid rain it just had on our last outing! The supplier say it is meant to be weathered but if you read Outwells FAQ page it clearly states that their tents do not need to be weathered at all……who’s telling the truth? It is made from sealed seam 5000mm HH material,this should not leak at all…..probably made in China by someone earning $1 a day who does not care if it leaks or not…….were gutted. Dont know weather to have another Maryland or another Outwell tent ,maybe a vermont or just have our money back, other than the fact it leaks it’s a great tent!! anyone else had a leaky Outwell?
Just read these reviews and have to say we purchased an Outwell Hartford XL six years ago in 2005, and its been the best tent we’ve ever had. Its been through gale force winds in Anglesea and torrential rain in Conwy, and has never leaked or broken. Every year we keep thinking we need to waterproof it, but havent done so far and its still going strong.
Hopefully the other 2 reviews are just pure unlucky, as I would recommend our Outwell to anyone.
Re: Nevada 4 (discontinued and replaced with Nevada m)
Have just returned from holiday having used our Nevada 4 for only the second time since we bought it. I will admit the rain was heavy, but when we woke after the first night the bedding was soaked. There were large pools of water in the back of the tent, and all the gutters around the top of the sewn in ground sheet were full of water. We needed bivvie bags and towels for the rest of the holiday to keep things dry, even though the rain reduced. Not only the seams failed, but the water came in through the fabric of the tent itself.
Having read reviews from this and other sites, I am sure this tent is faulty, but we cannot go back to the retailer because we bought it from a camping fair. I’m expecting the service from Outwell to be rude and poor, also after reading comments from several other sites, but I will give it a try.
