Customer Reviews

Get what you pay for.
For the price this tent has some really nice features, all the seams are factory taped it has the bathtub floor, nice size. However it is not approaching freestanding and hard to make taut even with stakes. The gusset where the center pole met the roof broke the second time I put it up, it wasn't tightened properly but amazon was really good about the return process. This tent wasn't right for me but if you live in an area with soil that accepts stakes well and make sure to tighten/check the gusset it could be right for you.

Not for wet climates- poor setup
Weight-wise, this was a fine purchase- I could barely feel it on my pack. That's pretty much where the good part ends. Even with the claims about the material and stitching keeping the inside dry, this tent still leaked all over me all night. The ceiling sweated, the walls sweated, the floor sweated- not a great way to spend a 40-degree NH night.
When it comes to setup, it could use a lot of work. The stakes and poles provided are poor at best when it comes to staying put, and the "main" pole that sits in the middle of the tent door is easily knocked over whenever you bump it even slightly.
Don't be fooled by the low price- upgrade to a better item.

Great Tent for Casual Camping
For the price, this is probably one of the best tents around for the occasional backpacker / biker. It fits neatly into most standard packs, sets up in five minutes, and only weighs a little over four pounds. The only thing I didn't like was that the vestibule floor is not attached to the body of the tent, leaving space for ground debris and critters to get into your stuff. I also recommend using some sort of ground cover heavier than just the tent floor...like a sheet of 10 mil plastic. All in all, I recommend it highly as a weekend / casual shelter.
