The supplier say it is meant to be weathered but if you read Outwells FAQ page it clearly states that their tents do not need to be weathered at all......who's telling the truth? It is made from sealed seam 5000mm HH material,this should not leak at all.....probably made in China by someone earning $1 a day who does not care if it leaks or not.......were gutted. Dont know weather to have another Maryland or another Outwell tent ,maybe a vermont or just have our money back, other than the fact it leaks it's a great tent!! anyone else had a leaky Outwell?

We where camping in Cumbria in the early hours of the morning it became very windy in a matter of a hour our metal poles of the tent had broken resulting in our tent being destroyed, we where left with nothing more than a damaged canvas what we stood up in and all poles broken. we were using storm pegs so dont know what more we could of done. Outwell is impossable to contact the store said we are not covered for storm damage, but to me this is a manufaturing falt DO NOT BUY A OUTWELL TENT other couple that had the outwell montana had the same problem and their tent was destroyed also Hi, we bought the outwell oakland xl thinking we were buying one of the best makes of tents, what a disapointment.
