I'm thinking of selling mine and getting the Wychwood Epic. My comments on this thread and others remain the case. The quality is good but I still find it fiddly to set up in comparison to others

Got to say, the Wychwood Epic looks a great peice of kit. I was looking around for alternatives to the Trakker RS Tempest when I came across a vid on youtube, a very strong contender and great value to boot.

Just had a quick look of the video of the whychwood and it looks extremely similar to the Solar uni spider? 2 windows not 4 but groundsheet, shape, design, skull cap all look the same?

The front is different and the mechanism looks easier to set up. Definitely similar though and I like lots about the Solar, apart from the set up

How about the Quest MK3 Defier

Looks decent too as an alternative to the ripoff Trakker RS pricing !!!
