The “Minny” is a simple but effective design. It is a tunnel tent with a generous head-height that is pretty-much uniform throughout the length of the tent. The poles are steel which lends the tent great strength and stability in the wind – we had some very strong gusts and the Minny stood tall and straight throughout. It is simple to pitch, though some strength is required to get the pins into the bottom of the steel uprights (or was I just feeling feeble that day?) The bedroom pods are genuinely 2x2 with sufficient room for a double inflatable mattress in each. Also, the fact that the tent is SIG throughout means that it is warmer in the cold (no drafts) and bug-free.
