G'day Ted,

Unfortunately, unless you've already purchased one, then the Oxley 7 Lite is now unavailable. They were a clearance model, and have now sold out sorry. The Coleman Gold tents have a slightly higher waterhead rating on the fly fabric, but overall they're made from fairly similar materials, so should last a similar amount of time.

G'day James,

Great question! I've had a chat with Oztent who have confirmed that this tent is not compatible with the Foxwing. The RV range is compatible though!

G'day Liam,

The Oxley 7 Lite has one large room, with a central divider that can be zipper opened or shut. The divider isn't stitched into the floor, so it doesn't create two completely separate sections, but it will provide privacy and a way to separate the spaces.

G'day Joe,

Unfortunately not, this accessory was discontinued quite some time ago, and we're just clearing out the remaining stock of the discontinued tents.

G'day Ronnie,

We'd recommend the Oztent Alloy Poles 220cm version, in conjunction with the Alloy Telescopic Spreader.

G'day Ronaldo,

It's hard to give a direct comparison with the two tents, as they're quite different, but I'll do my best. The poles on the Oxley are aluminium, the Coleman have steel poles with plastic components, so it terms of poles, the Oxley is slightly better. The materials are fairly similar, however as you indicate the floor on the Coleman is a little more heavy-duty. Both of these tents come with pre-attached guy ropes. I'd personally be happy with either of these options, but would steer a little more towards the Oxley due to the better poles and the shape/design.

G'day William,

Unfortunately not, the Complete Panel System is a discontinued line.

G'day Michael,

Yes you can roll back the front awning, there are some velcro loops to secure it back once it's rolled up.

G'day Ste,

The side mesh window at the back has an internal blind that zips around to fully seal it off from any weather but this does leave the mesh exposed on the outside. As yet we haven't had any feedback - good or bad of the impact of this! The Fly does create a small eave, so may help to shield it from overhead rain.

G'day Kimberly,

Generally, we find condensation is worst in single skin canvas tents over winter. The Oxley 7 Lite has a fly sheet so we'd suggest using the fly sheet to reduce the chance of condensation. Opening up the windows for a little ventilation will also help. We'd generally suggest that you give a little bit of clearance on the edges to reduce the chance of sleeping bags or little feet touching the edge and picking up any condensation that might form. Hopefully, that will help. 

G'day Kevin,

I've just called Oztent and they have confirmed that the roof vent isn't able to be closed, so this tent is probably best in summer, autumn and spring. It will still be fine to use in winter as this will provide handy ventilation.

G'day Torey,

I'm not entirely sure why they made the fly different on these two tents sorry, I can only assume the Lite model is trimmed back to keep the weight down. The Lite model can still be used in light rain without the fly, but the fly will help prevent condensation build up inside the tent and it will help stop heavy rain from getting in through zippers in the roof vents, so just make sure you always have it handy in case the sky opens right up. 

G'day Chris,

Great question, both the Oxley 7 Lite and Turbo Lite Plus 300 tents are quick and easy to set up and pack down. Both tents are a good option, with the Turbo giving you a larger sleeping space, which might be useful for the family. The small fly cap on the Oxley 7 Lite might make it a slightly quicker to set up, but as you've indicated the Turbo Lite Plus 300 is a little more solid and has more accessory options for the front awning space. If you've got more specific questions or need more advice feel free to give us a call on 1300 914 007.

G'day Mark,

The floor of the Oztent Oxley 7 Lite Touring Tent is the same material as the fly, just a different colour. This means that the floor also has a Waterhead rating of 2000mm.
