Review:  The Vango Banshee 300 is an excellent choice for three-person lightweight camping.  At just 2.75kg in weight, is competitive with the lightest tents when shared between three people, and this comes in way under the cost of other tents.  The internal dimensions are snug, but not overly so, with 230cm of length accommodating taller campers, although the width is somewhat restrictive.  The two pole tunnel design is easy to pitch and thanks to unbelieveable 5000mm hydrostatic head on the flysheet this tent should keep you dry in even the worst monsoon.  For backpacking trios, there really aren't many negatives to this tent, but those looking for a little more comfort might find the narrow width a little frustrating.

Best bits:  Lightweight, good internal length and excellent quality
Worst bits:  Somewhat narrow
