Where is the Quality Control?? By Worried Camper from Gautier, MS on 08/21/2008 Cons: Heavy, Poor construction Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: This is the third tent we exchanged. The first had tears in the mesh and the walls. The second had a large tear in the floor. The third was missing one of the metal rings that is used to unlock the legs in order to fold it back up. I ended up disassembling the joint and used a metal ring from a keychain in place of the missing release ring. We decided not to exchange this one as the rest of the tent was in good condition and we were afraid of getting one with more defects. I do not fault Sierra Trading Post, as the defects described above are manufacturer defects. We are leaving on our camping trip soon and hope that everything works properly. [...]
By Outdoor Camper Guy from Olympia, Washington on 07/07/2008 Pros: Easy to set up, Fly Works Well, Smart Construction, Sturdy, Waterproof Cons: Durability adds weight Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Construction is thoughtful
Materials are rugged-- all materials are heavier than most.
Dimensions are ample (though cramped for six)
Assembly is easy (though the enclosed instructions don't address the rainfly, a little intuition is all that is needed).
Stored size is bulky but can be easily transported in the provided duffle bag.
Plentiful tie-down stakes are provided.
By PhilD from Whitestone, NY on 05/31/2008 Pros: Easy to set up, Fly Works Well, Sturdy, Waterproof Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Excellent tent although the 12 by 10 measurement is deceptive- the tent's shape makes it's surface area less than 120 square feet. Fly is a bit hard to get installed.
Overall, tent is superior quality and design.
VERY waterproof. Much better quality than other tents in this price range.
