Cheers Richard. I'll give it a go. I found it was the porch which got in
the way, but I just remembered I left the doors rolled up, which probably didn't help. Oh, I had another close look at the Fox Easy Dome today. Lovely bivvy, and cosy, but it is so small the bedchair pushes the inner tent against the outer tent. Not good if it is raining heavily. Also, the flat rear end could cause problems if a strong wind comes from behind I would imagine. Such a shame none of the tackle shops have Chub domes erected. "Richard" wrote in message ... "Zoe" wrote in message ... Cheers Richard. Yeah, Chub give the dimensions very accurately. I have their brochure. Shame the other manufacturers don't give such good info. How would you say it is compared to the Easy Dome for size, or even the Carp Plus. To me, the Carp Plus is about the right size inside. Enough for a bedchair and still plenty of room. Don't know the dimensions of either. However, with the XS the bedchair (I have JRC Cacoon 3 leg) can go across the middle easily (loads of spare room each end) or from front to rear apex (centre) position (just). Either way it leaves ample space inside. One other thing. I find putting up and taking down the XS2 easy enough on my own, despite the size. But, is there a technique to folding it away? I found the best thing to do is to pull all the collapsed poles into the centre as tightly as possible first (with the whole bivvy in an upright position, not laying down) . I find if I do this and then wrap the rest around these I get it back in the bag pretty easily. Cheers ....... Richard --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
