Just wondering if anyone has one of these and what they think of it? I've heard it may only fit Oztrail Awnings (mine is a Rhino Sunseeker II)?
Here's the problem - I have a cheap tent that I thought was good enough for the occasional trip (and probably was) but I bought a stretcher for my last trip away. I'm fairly tall so I bought the larger size stretcher (210mm long). I checked the bag my tent is in before buying the stretcher to make sure it would fit - the tent bag said it was 250mm so I thought it would be OK. When we set up camp for the night I put the tent up then put the stretcher in only to find it was sticking out the door by a significant amount. When I checked again I realised that the size on the tent bag included the fly sheet! That will teach me to try new gear before going away
I'm not able to go on many overnight trips for family reasons so I can't justify spending a lot of money on camping gear that only gets used once in a blue moon so I'm looking at cheap options. It's only for me so doesn't need to be huge as long as the stretcher fits.
I could get another (larger) cheap tent (probably for between $50 and $100) but I do like the idea of the RV shade tent:

It's $250 in Rays and I could wait until they (or BCF) have a sale on again so potentially could get one for $190 which is reasonable.
