The Roman Escape 6V Dome Tent is a roomy tent for small families on a budget.
With 180cm of height and floor space for six adults, the Escape 6V offers a simple and functional shelter with a front storage vestibule and dual entrances.
Also Equipped with two windows and roof vents for ventilation, the Escape 6V is the perfect occasional use family tent.
The details note a 2000mm waterhead rating, but I found other sites noting 1000mm. Which is correct?
G'day Rodney,
As this is a special order tent, we can't confirm on the packaging for you unfortunatley. But, according to the latest information available on the supplier's website here, this tent has a waterhead rating of 2000mm. I hope this helps Rodney.
Is this tent easy to assemble for kids?
G'day Karen,
The Roman Escape 6 is a fairly easy tent to set up, depending on the experience level of the user. It may take some time to set up the first couple of trips but it's a popular choice for scout groups and families with young kids.
Can you confirm the waterproof and head height? The Companion, Roman site gives it a 2000mm rating and a head height of 197cm.
G'day Steve,
Thanks for pointing this out. It appears that Roman has updated the Roman Escape 6V and we weren't made aware. I've just confirmed with our product in-store and our site is presently incorrect. In the interim, please feel free to refer to Companion Brands site here until we have the chance to update our specifications.
my previous tent had huge side windows and I could either unzip the fly on the doors for full air flow or zip them closed for privacy and reduced airflow (this is when I set the tent up minus the fly. Could I also see a picture of the tent set-up minus the fly. Rarely use the fly in the desert. Cheers
Hi Sonja,Â
Unfortunately we don't have more images for this tent, it's something we have been chasing from our suppliers for some time, an a product we have not had the time to take our own photos of yet. We did recently do a shoot for the Roman Adventure 4 EX, it's a different configuration but gives you a good idea of what the mesh configuration on the inner would be like on the Escape Series if you just look at the rear section of the image. The doors are double doors in that they have both solid and mesh panels, so there is the option to increase airflow or close the tent up for weather protection.Â
Another good, albeit a little more expensive option is the Zempire Neo range, which have huge mesh side windows in both the inner and flysheet, that way you can get maximum airflow whilst the flysheet is in use, these also have double doors, so the inner is almost full mesh, even when the flyysheet is on.
I hope this information helps.
is this good waterproofing or will it leak in heavy rain. I can see better versions have 2000mm water head ratings. what does the difference actually mean in the real world when camping in heavy rain.
or is it 300cm by 300cm floor and them 100cm vestibule
