After spending a full week getting to know the Howling Moon LT Deluxe trailer tent, I can safely say this is a quality product. On the fourth day of my trip to review various camping sites, I had to endure near hurricane-force winds that were gusting at above 90 km/h, and the tent withstood all that was thrown at it. The rest of my trip was blessed with good weather and the large awning served well to protect us from the sun, offering good shade under which to put out our camping table and chairs. At one of the campsites, the mozzies attacked in numbers and forced us to sit inside the trailer tent with a camping chair on either side of the central ladder with the front entrance flysheet zipped up to protect us from the rabid mozzie attacks. Even bursts of Peaceful Sleep aimed at the marauding mozzies did little to stop their advance.
