VERY pleased!
By kathi
I bought this tent for our family camping trip, and we loved it. Easy set up, very roomy, comfortable, and waterproof. There is a thin nylon divider that can be used to separate into two rooms, but we didn't use it. We also didn't use the small mesh shelf that can be attached in the top middle of the tent to keep glasses or other small objects out of the way. The two attached side pockets inside worked fine to keep glasses, cell phones, and car keys within easy reach. We had one queen mattress, one full mattress, two small electric fans (because even at night it can be hot in Texas), 2 backpacks, and 3 duffle bags in the tent - still plenty of room to step in and out and get around. The two doors were very convenient as well. We slept one night with the rain fly off and windows and doors zipped all the way up; the mesh at the top of the tent supplied both ventalation and privacy. With the rain fly on (during light rain) we just left a little part of one door and window unzipped. We were very comfortable inside all 5 nights. This tent looks simple, but it is well-planned and constructed. Set up and pack up is very easy as well.

By PCMentor
I bought this tent after I returned a Walmart tent($54) that did not have closable windows. This tents windows all close. The fly doesn't flap in light wind. The privacy curtain is attached with knob and loop ties not velcro. There is a storage mesh shelf at the top. My cot fit in one of the rooms, I wanted to put two cots in one room but I think there's not enough room. The door fabric felt tacky like the fly. On the box it says the tent is the same material as the fly. I am curious to see how it performs in the rain.I bought a separate duffle for the tent as I don't think it would have fit in the sack it came with. This is normal. I put the fly and curtain in the sack instead. I was thinking that to assemble the tent without walking on it I would not put the stakes in till I put the poles in. The fly has elastic with hooks to clip to the bottom ring. Much better than Walmarts tent which only had string. I posted pics of the tent under customer images.We have only used this tent once a while ago. I am concerned the doors may leak in rain. I don't see a flap over the zipper in the pictures. If you have experience with this tent in a good rain please post. Thanks.Still have only used this tent once (now is Apr 30, 2012). I am glad to read in the other reviews rain barely gets in at the doors. I would really like a swinging door like some tents have. As I think back now , being able to completely close of all openings when its cold seem the most important feature this tent has, Except the roof vent of course. Which the rain fly closes.Still haven't used it more than once(Mar 12 2013). Another thing I liked about this tent was the rain fly does not depend on tie outs. It clips to the frame. No tripping over guy ropes. I may use it this spring and I may water test it with the hose, esp along the front zippers. I was glad to see this tent is still available on Amazon.

Seems to be OK
By T. Craw
The tent arrived on schedule, and in time for us to set it up and get familiar with it before our Labor Day camping trip. Right out of the box the shock cord in one of the main tent poles was broken. Not a big issue, as it is easily fixed, just frustrating. After ordering a replacement shock cord on Amazon for $10, we had the pole usable.The tent is a nice size and was actually a downgrade from my 16X10 Coleman. The 12X10 size is perfect for my two queen sized mattresses. There was about 8 inches between the two and about 2 feet of space left at the foot of the beds. Plenty of room to store bags and such. This size is also more convenient than some of the larger tents, as it will fit on standard tent pads better.We had beautiful weather, so I can't testify to how well this tent will hold up in rain. After setting this tent up in my yard, however, I used a waterproofing spray on it, just as an extra precaution. The tent fabric and pan do seem to be quite a bit thinner than other tents I have owned, so this may be a point of concern later down the road. I would recommend using a small tarp underneath the tent.Ventilation is awesome with the top, door, and window vents. It kept us from being stuffy, yet with all the windows and door closed it helps keep you quite cozy on those nights that it gets cooler.The rain fly hangs low, and obstructs the front doors. I did not care for that as you have to bend down to get in and out, but it isn't a deal breaker. Also, the zippers are not well thought out, and can be frustrating when trying to get in or out of the tent in middle of the night. Unlike other tents I have owned, the door and screen zippers on the front entrance are separated, meaning you have to unzip both to get in or out.Even with the few issues I have with this tent, it is still a decent tent for the price.
