Faulty Tent Returns.
Due to the nature of the warranty on tents, many of them have to be sent off to the manufacturer's UK branch in order to assess whether any damage which has occurred is covered by the warranty. Unfortunately, because of this, a returned tent may take several weeks to be assessed.
Please be aware that No manufacturer or we cover pole breakages. Pole breakages are considered fair wear and tear.
