Model	Sleeps?Sleeps How many people the brand says the tent sleeps: usually that many adults lying side by side on the floor, with little room for gear, mattresses or a cot.	Price	Floor?Floor The floor area, in square metres. The inner floor unless the row says otherwise: a bedroom's floor, or a floor as a shop labels it, which may take in a covered porch (vestibule).	m² each?Floor per person The inner floor divided by how many people the brand says it sleeps. A single camping mattress takes about 1 m²; a queen air bed about 3 m².	Waterhead?Waterhead How much water pressure the fabric holds back before it seeps through, in millimetres: a column of water that tall is stood on the fabric in a lab test. A higher number held back more in that test. Seams, zips and how the tent is pitched also decide whether it leaks, and brands rarely say how they tested.	Weight?Weight The tent as the listing gives it. Most don't say whether the poles, pegs and bag are included.	Packed length?Packed length The longest side of the packed bag, in millimetres: whether it fits across the boot or on the roof.	Buy

How many a tent sleeps is the brand's rating, not a measure of space. Floors are compared only with the same kind of floor. Waterheads are compared only for the same part, and no brand says how it tested. Weights are as each source lists them; most don't say what they include. Each product page shows every figure with its source and date, and every price with its retailer and feed date. The full table filters these against every other tent with a current price.
