Good quality construction, for example, door zippers that don't bind and open up with an easy swipe of arm.and the zippers keep on working year after year!

It only has the one hooking loop at its peak, plus the clips. Do note this tent thankfully does NOT have the long sleeves (pain to feed dome poles thru). This tent sets up easily, within 5 minutes when my wife and I team up on it. Obviously no 9' X 9' tent is practical as a '5 person' tent. We consider it very roomy for two adults, their gear, and plus a child. This is a quality built and reliable workhorse car camping dome tent you can expect to last a lifetime. We are very impressed with this tent, having put it thru its paces now for five years. Getting some replacement pole sections for the main poles, will probably add Rip Stop nylon panels where the fly is duct taped. Troubles aside, have not seen anything better that meets my requirements for one person setup and not TOO heavy. Wish it had the same oversized zippers the Scouts A frames do. One unzipped itself before the zipper, so occasionally I have to force the zipper backwards to fix it. Zippers are okay, have to move them carefully so they don't jam. Depending on how the pole breaks it rips through the fly, which IS NOT rip stop nylon. The small poles front and back did not survive a mild storm, but keep them, they are handy to use as splints when the main poles go.īoth main poles have broken at the same place, just over the top of the arch. The poles don't look as if they were glassed all the way through. Don't know if they are overstressing them by how they bend over the top. Poles - worst fiberglass poles I have ever seen. When I sleep on the floor on a pad or hiking cot, feels huge.

Two full size cots fits but then is cramped, only do this occasionally with camping with family. Space inside great for one, holds full size cot and a camp chair to be my little office, great for week long summer camp. Bought a Eureka because the boys' outfitter tents ($300+) were so well built. Owned for 1 year, used monthly for camping with Boy Scouts. But if you can't find this in off-season, I highly recommend you pay full price because this one is so worth it. After camping season, that's the time to look for your tent, especially if you are a beginner. I believe that I bought it at a discount because I did buy this one 'off season'. The only way this tent could be improved is if they made it in my favorite color!įor myself, many years ago, I purchased the tent at the Sports Authority store out in Long Island, NY, USA. It's so roomy indoors that you can practically set up a cloth barrier inside to make the two areas private areas in the tent. So when you are camping out with the kids or with the grandkids or with all of them, you will have enough space to relax. Yes, you can set this one up without reading directions. The tent is nice, cool, comfortable and easy to set up. Yes, alone out in the woods or in the state parks or in the national parks. When I was using this tent, I was doing solo camping. (The only other choice I have is the popup tent with the six foot ceiling - that's in another review). For real, I've camped practically across country and this is the one tent that I would like to have with me all the time.
