Brampton 3 Room Dome Tent

G'day TJ,

The new version of the Brampton 3 Room Dome Tent has a more box shape design to increase your internal space, and create more vertical side walls. This will help if you're wanting to use stretchers inside the tent. The model is the TD.34 and they do still come with four awning poles.

G'day Aaron,

I'm guessing you're referring to the first and second images of the Brampton 3 Room Dome tent? Is so, this piece is the Awning Side Wall that can be attached to the front awning. It won't connect the side awning to the front awning but it will mean you can set the tent up as pictured.  

G'day Brock,

We've just doubled checked and the Brampton tent comes with four awning poles.

G'day Annie,

Unfortunately, we don't have the Brampton 3 Dome up on display but I'll approximate that there are probably at least 10 guys included with the tent.  We recommend adding an extra guy at each corner for extra pole stability so you can then have one extending at opposing angles for greater structural support.  With this in mind and catering for the awnings, you could consider an extra 6 - 10?  There isn't a particular type or brand that works better than the others with regard to the Brampton, more so it would come down to your budget and personal preferences.  If you're adding extra guys for stability it might be worth considering the ropes with springs as they are designed to allow for wind movement and stretch/shrinkage.  Feel free to check out this page for our range of ropes and guys, including those with springs.  Cheers :)

G'day Max,

Great question!  The biggest difference is of course, the Dark Room feature but beyond that, they also each use a different frame type.  The Northstar has an Instant Up frame so it's faster to pitch and breakdown compared to the Hornet Pole system used with the Brampton.  The other stand out difference is their floor material.  The Northstar uses a 420D Polyoxford PVC which is a much nicer fabric as it's more durable, yet softer and quieter to walk on compared to the 175gsm Polyethylene floor used in the Brampton.  In regards to the tarp, the OZtrail Ultramesh is a reliable choice!  These are available in 10 sizes so depending on which tent you choose, you'd have to match up the external dimensions to suit.  The 2.44 x 6.10 m would work for the Northstar but with the larger measurements on the Brampton you might want to consider matching up 2 smaller sized tarps?  Cheers :)
