Hello everyone, has anyone got any reviews on this bivvy or personal use? I was looking to get one myself.

I've written a few bits on here about it. So far not overly impressed. It doesn't go up as easy as advertised, the front poles are very fiddly to get connected and after modest usage mine are scratched to hell. Once up it is sturdy and I like the pockets and space in there and the material feels good quality. Another issue was water pooling under the spreader block, it never leaked through but was a nightmare to dry out. The magnetic mozzy front is also nowhere near as convenient as advertised, rarely if ever shuts tight when you run through so if you forget to click it shut you still get a load of bugs in there so defeats what I thought was the main selling point of it. I was going to sell it but people have persuaded me to get a skull cap (to resolve the pooling issue) and that the setting up gets easier so going to give it this season
