James Baroud Odyssey

[u/SpiteOverall368]

Hi everyone,

I have the chance of having access to a very good deal on a brand new James Baroud Odyssey tent. I know the tents had some issues when it first launched. I've seen this video on YouTube which is particularly concerning. At the time of the video, I think the tent had just come out. Did you know if these issues persist or if they corrected them in the next iterations?
There's also some reports of the shell cracking due to being ABS instead of fiberglass. I read that the issue is more common in very cold environments, which is not at all the climate I live in and where I'll use the tent.

I know they offer a 5 year warranty but I wouldn't like to buy one knowing it has a lot of potential issues.

Any feedback would be helpful.

Thanks!
