Original model tents are best suited for cooler climates - the PVC windows are easy to wipe clean and keep in warmth. The windows can be fully opened to get a good through-flow of air on hot summer days. The groundsheet on this model is clip-up (not seal-in) which makes for quick assembly (great for rapid deployment of multiple tents).
Outback models are designed for warmer climates like the Australian Outback where they got their name. Zip open mesh layers on the windows and doors allow for maximum airflow while keeping bugs out.
They include a seal-in ground sheet to prevent insects crawling in. The outback also benefits from bigger air vents at the roof apex.
Hybrid models give you the best of both worlds, a practical choice for anywhere in the world. You have an insulated PVC layer on the windows for the winter as well as a mesh layer on the windows and door to keep you cool and keep the mosquitoes at bay in the summer.
Stargazer models have all the features of the hybrid deluxe, with a transparent roof, which means you can enjoy all the luxury of Lotus Belle whilst in view of the heavens.
This tent will be perfect for 'dark skies' regions and fans of astronomy and comes after many, many requests for a tent that is suitable for viewing the night sky.
The Stargazer has 360 degrees of transparent panels located around the roof canopy to give the best view of the sky with a clip up curtains to maintaining privacy within.
