Pros & Cons
Pros
Fast to setup and easy to take down. Great value for money. Highly recommended and very pleased.
Tons of room for me and my 60 litre rucksack. Goes up and packs away ridiculously easily. Lots of little storage pockets too.
Held up in torrential rain, kept me and my father completely dry. Hh head so its seriously waterproof in the most torrentially rain. Bought this to use in the lakes in autumn, handles the wind and rain no problem.
Have used vango tents for over 40 yrs. The hexagonal protex fabric feels a lot tougher. Overall the tent performs well in most conditions.

Shipping
Delivery from amazon was fast with no problems.
It arrived yesterday and today i wanted to set it up in the garden to test it.
Packaging/appearance
It’s also very easy to pack away as the bag is plenty big enough.
Packing away is a doddle as it comes in a stuff bag rather than a tent bag.
And you'll be able to pack the wet outer tent into the bag provided which is oversized so it allows you to stuff it in quickly ... Read More
Competitiveness
Superb tent for the money, build quality was really good compared to the other vango tents like the helvellyn experience models.
There's not as many reviews on the orion compared to other vango products, and i only bought it after the banshee sold out on amazon.
This does not seem to be one of vangos more popular tents due to the lack of information on internet or it is also known under ... Read More

The inner is bright orange its quite wide and suitable to use as a solo tent or it would be good for a couple maybe for camping or festivals
