Download Festival 2024: Sendero 4 Tent Review

[@braithwaiteo7]

I bought this tent a couple of days ago, very easy to put up but had the same issue as you with the pegs coming out ha!

[@26dirtbag]

Bought this exact tent for the exact same reason as you, I'm just hoping Download isn't as wet as its predicted to be 😂 it seems to be a popular tent so I'm putting my Sunderland scarf on the outside just so I know which one is mine 😂 if I see you I'll buy you a Liquid Death 😂😂😂

Nice review. , I've just bought same tent for motorbike rallies , a bit heavy compared to my three man (person😏) tent Let us know how it was in the rain . I haven't used mine yet 👍👍👍

Just purchased this for bloodstock how did it do at download?

[@emmasturman]

It did well... On one of the days I returned back to the tent and one of the front tie down points (the plastic D ring) had snapped, so the tapered door wasn't fully tort, and as it was heavy rain at Download Festival this year, I had a slight puddle in the porch. But I was still able to tie down the front again, even though the D ring had snapped. There is a slight hack to closing the front middle part of the door though... as if you don't tie the inner loop with the outer loop, a puddle gathers in the bottom lip and eventually falls into the porch if it's not secured properly. A few of us in camp had that issue

Leaked after a couple of hours of rain do not buy

[@emmasturman]

Mine leaked too... but you've got to make sure you secure the outer toggle bit to stop the water gathering in the pouch bit at the front. Poor design flaw, but mine survived Download festival this year... rain for 3 whole days pretty much

Watch out for the flap at the bottom of the door, took it racing and ended up with an Olympic sized swimming pool of a puddle in the porch 😢

[@ripleybishop4068]

Just an idea but you'll need to anyway. Buy better quality pegs, you can buy pegs for different ground conditions.

[@ptonpc]

Let us know how it goes. Get better pegs than the ones it comes with.

@@emmasturmanhi! Just bought this tent but a little concerned about the puddle issue. If both loops are properly fastened does this solve the issue?

[@emmasturman]

@JAKOLABMUSIC yeah, if both loops are fastened it's OK 👍🏻

[@HeyImLewis]

@@JAKOLABMUSIC Adhesive Velcro the bottom of it
