[23 - 25 Feb]

So this is the first tent in my budget I found on 23 Feb, 23:00:

This is a very cool but very expensive tent:

This is a cheaper tent that looks more professional:

Then I spent 2-3 hours researching about ventilation (which I'll talk about in a different log) and I didn't want my lack of finds to delay the tent itself from arriving. At 3am (24th Feb) when I bought this tent, I didn't detect any issues with the green tubes or branding everywhere. I was just thinking "Yeah green and light grey are my branding colours anyway." and "WOW! This reflective texture looks much higher quality than the first one I saw!". 

Before I went to sleep, I saw the below image and I quite like the industrialist look of the overhead filter and bright interior walls, looking at this from an office setup perspective.

So it was a new day and it took until maybe 6pm to realise I didn't mentally render the branding in any of my mental simulations. I look closer at the videos of the tent I can find to gather data, and soon I was thinking "Oh noh! There's "vivosun" every which way I'd look, and the green is the wrong shade." I can tolerate the green, but my worries have spiked because of all the interior branding.

The reason why I realised I didn't render the branding or question the specific shade of green is because I found this tent:

This Senua tent has the same lovely texture as the Vivosun, but absolutely no branding.

There's an even cheaper tent that comes with rope rachets which are used to hang the carbon filter gear on the ceiling. Unfortunately, I looked into Gorilla Box tents and they also do the same branding thing that Vivosun does.

It's now 9pm on the 24th of Feb and my vibe is at all-time lows because of the branding plastered inside a tent that's already been dispatched. The Vivosun tent was the only one where the seller actually offers to pay for return postage apparently, so perhaps I could see this as a risk-free venture? I did send an email to the seller and got a response at 8:30 saying that it's not cancellable but I could try and refuse the package. I've never done that before so I'm not sure how well that'll pan out.

Because of this, I'm now being extra strict with the interior look of the tent. Thus, I decided to reject tents that have windows, since they'd always be closed and would just be some black rectangle in the wall:

I found a listing that was kinda sketchy only because they took an image of another tent and poorly modified the image:

This tent was £108 after a coupon, which is one of the lowest I've seen so far. Well that is untill I'm scrolling through the search results and see this detailed render listing:

The tent is from Prodigy Tents, but in the process of finding that information, I found a 3D model of a similar tent. The tents seem to have more ceiling bars than most others.

To end off the day, I saw this tent intended for office spaces:

Now it's today, the 25th and I notice something missing in that £99.99 tent: the waterproof floor tray thing. Seems that option is out now. 

Currently, I'm thinking of getting this £109 tent for the long-term:

It looks like there's few things on the walls, such as extraction vents or rear mini doors (see the Vivosun tent) and the white beams blend in too, so I think this is a good solution with the Seuna one being a backup choice. The listing description also has everything I'm looking for in a tent:
