How to close-up calumet changing room?!

[Meekyman]

Hi Folks,

I'm new to LF and just started getting bits and pieces. I have bought a "Calumet changing room":

It popped open easily enough, but closing it is a nightmare! Makes all these sort of cracking noises and sure the stitching will fall apart!

If someone owns one, can they give some hints as to how to refold it back down to a small packable size?

Thanks

Graham

I own one. Just take the edge just above the arm sleeves, for instance and just push it in towards the middle of the unit. Yes, seems like quite a bit of resistance, but once you get it so far, it just folds into the apposing corner. You won't hurt it. Just tidy up the sleeves to fold flat and the unit will do likewise and slip back into its cover.

Hi Bob,

Thanks for that. Think I have hurt it....the wires that run around the edges have clearly snapped and one is now poking through and only bought it today! Oh well, Friday afternoon product. Time to call Calumet and act sheepish.

Cheers
