Hi Phil
Just got back from York and we did use the Vareo instead of the PopAir. It worked really well in some mixed weather. two of the three mornings we had it up we comfortably had breakfast in it. On the third morning we had freezing fog so we ate inside as it was too cold.
We had a bit of condensation but not a lot. It was so warm on the Tuesday that we opening the front canopy right up and seated six of us in it.
A downside we became aware of was that the awning cord is grey and it matched the fresh pebbles on the hardstanding. We were OK at night as Kath puts some lights on it but in the day they were not easy to see. Kath came out of the awning door and tripped over one sending her face first in the hardstanding - she was lucky not to badly hurt herself. For next season I will replace them all with some bright red cord that we have.
Cheers
