Used the Vango F10 Helium UL 1 (2021 Edition) for the first time on my latest SwimCamping adventure at the weekend and it was great. Plenty of room for my Exped Synmat UL LW (197cm x 65cm x 7cm) so that you can have items at your head and feet ends if you like but mind and leave room for venting. Even with a long & wide sleep mat, there's also a neat triangular space left which I bundled clothes and other gear into. There's 1 door with this tent and it has an ample sized porch, so I put some gear in there too. Have to say that I found the door very easy to open and close with no snagging.
I did swap the tent (fast pack) bag and pegs over for my own ones, which I prefer to use.
The tent is amazingly light (1.2kg not including bag & pegs) and packs down really small (30cm13cm) making it ideal for SwimCamping. I haven't tried to use the TBS system as yet. I never timed myself pitching the tent as I wasn't that fussed. The main pole more or less snaps into place when putting it together. The 2 end poles are simple enough to slip in their grooves and click into place. Peg out the main pole, the inner and flysheet pitch together plus peg out the guy lines that you want to use. Fantastic tent and I look forward to using it again soon.
Ps, I bought the tent myself and these are my own views.
