G'day Nick,

The hutch is designed primarily for 1100 wide swags, so it wont be directly compatible.
You can set it up against the end of the tent, but the Bandit swag doesnt have end access for the hutch.  You'd be able to access the hutch from the side only.

G'day Jacklyn, 

The 900 Bandit has an internal head height of 95cms so this should have enough room to sit up in! The main difference between the 1100 is the width, they both come out to the same head height. If you don't need the extra width, the 900 will be great and easier to carry at 2kgs lighter.

Hi Tom,

The new composite poles from Darche are stronger, 23Zero are in the process of upgrading their poles to Stainless Steel but not all swags have them yet.

You can certainly upgrade/replace the alloy poles, but there is nothing wrong with them. Most issues occur at the point of the swag being setup and result from people clipping the pole from one side and working across to the other, doing this creates stress on one side of the pole. If you clip evenly going back and forward from side to side you shoudln't have any problems.

G'day Ted,

The bottom half of the Dirty Dee is significantly smaller than the top half, and probably has half the amount of canvas as the top section.  Whilst the bandit does taper off abit, the bottom half is only marginally smaller than the top half.  It also has full windows and zippers of all 4 sections, where the Dee does not.
hope that helps.

G'day David,

The crew up in our Brendal store measured this one for me, as they have it on display.
The head and foot end both taper down slightly, the head end being 74cm and the foot end being 65cm.
Bear in mind this is a guide as we dont have the ability to peg out and tension up our swags indoors like they would be set up outside, so there may be a slight difference to real-life set up.

G'day Adam,

We tend to find that the carry bags are fairly generous, and will allow you to roll up your sleeping bag in the swag roll. You might be able to fit a sleeping bag and blanket (depending on how thick they are), but you won't fit a pillow inside.

G'day JJ,

Yes, you can use these swags on an 80cm stretcher, you'll just have a bit of overhang, which generally doesn't cause any issues, just be sure to check the swag poles aren't under any additional strain.

G'day Margaret,

We do get quite a few people in their 70s purchase swags, so yes we think it will be appropriate. One thing we generally suggest with a swag is a stretcher to pop the swag on top of, as getting up from the ground can become an issue as the years' progress. 

G'day Wayne,

We find that the 900mm swags tent to suit the Easy Fold Single Jumbo Stretcher best as it's 900mm by 2100mm which is almost the same as the Bandit dimensions. If you're after a little more width we do find a dew people steer towards the Darche XL 100 stretcher or the Oztent RS-1S Stretcher.

G'day Jon,

We're pretty excited about the 23Zero range! We've just recently put up a few of their swags instore, the Bandit being one of them, and so far they look great.  In terms of build quality and materials, I reckon it's on par with the top of the range options! As the range is fairly new, we're yet to see how they stand up to years of adventures, but honestly I dont have any doubts.  I've actually got my eye on the 1100 version, and if you did decide on this swag, I think you'd go alright.

G'day Jon,

Unfortunately no, its not.  There arent many swags that pass the midge test, but what you'd be looking for is No-See-Um mesh! Hope that helps.
