I was trying to work out if the front had mossie mesh revealed when rolled up and if you can only see our of the front door and not the side panels.I like to be able to see the lake and my rods when laying down.

£614 for a shelter.. ok that'll come down within a few months, but to get nothing with it is a bit of a knock.

UK RRP apparently going on the website tonight. If it is that price then it immediately prices me out of getting one, which is a shame as I do like the look of it but there are plenty of other good shelters on the market that come full at a fraction of that cost

That's the price I got off the website, fair enough with everything but for the open shelter is a bit much

£649.99 on TfT for the base unit. Ouch.
Just priced up the items I would want to make it a complete system and it would come in at £880

There appears to be a lower price "entry level" version called South West Pro with a clip in groundsheet not zipped etc...and lesser quality material £379
Hide and Hide Pro anyone ??

Several mentions of a Uni spider South Westerly Pro too....
The price of high end bivvys is a joke. £800 is comparable to the tents that are used on Everest base camp, all to sit by some poxy lake in the U.K. with a 20mph breeze and a bit of drizzle... Still, we all know the saying "a fool and his money..."
Assuming this is everything shown in the pictures, package including bivvy, skull cap, infill and groundsheet is £765. Which is considerably cheaper than the trakker offering

Mixed information in that blurb isnt it. Id like to think its the expensive one, as it says its with the free peak, and cant imagine the ground sheet and infil come in at £300

Can't fault my Nash and it's higher in XL than the Spider.
Really like mine the material is brilliant

Just been looking on the solar site. Seems that other than the groundsheet and infill, which are model specific, based on the zip in element of the ground sheet, and the D material of the infil, all the accessories are compatible with both models. So that's the Mozilla infil, the skull cap, and the 2 wraps.
Appears the SP model has newer material with a black out skin, and a few little bits on it, which I suppose, are considered more upmarket.
I'm really liking the way they have gone about this

I wonder how much the Korda bivvy will be when released,this solar does look a nice piece of kit

exactly this. A high end mountain tent will have money spent on light and strong pole materials and great fabrics. A bivvy has some aluminium poles and thick material. It's crazy.
