Anyone have these tents?
They seem to tick a lot of boxes, but hoping for some user feedback:

Thanks in advance

I have both the Revolution 1 and 2 person which are identical except for the complete third cross pole and I think the fly comes down closer to the ground.
They are excellent. Someone on here will have the Chinook. There is a video review on youtube from an Australian. I think he was from trailhiking.com or some such website. Cheers.

Nice, thanks Lamont.
Found the 2P video, assume basically the same as the 1P. They look like a lighter Hillebeg Soulo (which I've had in the past, but very heavy @ 2.5kg). Think I'm sold. Thanks for the reply. Cheers.

No problem with the goods, but there have been many complaints about the reliability of supply.
Some buyers have waited months for delivery.

I’m trying to get used to 1 person tents, and even this one looks to have a pretty small interior. Once you’ve got your head around the interior dimensions, which are bigger than what I’ve recently used, it looks great!

If you don't want to wait for supply from the US, try backpackinglight.com.au or the physical store off Little Bourke Street Melbourne. They stocked Big Sky last time I was in there so you may be able to get it off the shelf. I have another Big Sky tent with the exoskeleton I really like but it did take ages out of the US. I heard indirectly this had been improved.

Big Sky were/are more miss than hit. I bought both my tents from BPL in Melb. and was very happy to do so. Not affiliated with them in any way-just a punter.
I know of and emailed (in the email/digital sense) someone who recently bought from the US to Aus. and had a detailed to and fro with them and got his tent.
I had multiple emails unanswered but that was about a year ago. Search thru' posts on BW.com and other forums and my experience it seems is still commonplace. Unless you are in the US! Cheers

I have checked them out at BPL and they look very very good, the Chinook 2P will likely be my next solo tent. Definitely let BPL take the risk with supply - at one stage there were a lot of customers paying up front and not receiving the product until sometimes months later.

Big Sky have the strangest website/s -did you notice there are two?!
They don't even seem to be linked!-it is like they don't want business. Or do they?
Many people in the US have mused they should make a much greater impression just like Laurent's site at KS.
Those websites can do your head in!
