I managed to buy one of the Nova darkroom tents second-hand. It does the job, but it's quite cramped with a 4x5 enlarger and a Nova 12*16 processor. It's also not particularly sturdy and I often have to refix the metal poles (which form an external skeleton) into their joints. I leave it set up permanently in the garage but only switch the fan on before each processing session. As well as obviously providing ventilation, the tent billows out when the fan is on to provide a little more space.
