Poor Construction w/o Vents

By Stinky from Del Mar, CA on 01/26/2009

Pros:
Price
Cons:
Flimsy Construction, No vents
Best Uses:
Car Camping, Sauna
Describe Yourself:
Avid Adventurer
What Is Your Gear Style:
Comfort Driven
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Car camping. Price is the only thing positive about this tent. The tent bag ripped on the first pull. There is mesh on the inside that looks to be a vent but its not. There is no ventilation unless you leave the front(non vented) door open. If you are camping in mosquito areas beware.

Priced low for a reason.

By outsider from NC on 06/10/2009

Pros:
Easy To Set Up
Cons:
Flimsy Construction, Poor Fly Design, Poor stitching
Best Uses:
Car Camping
Describe Yourself:

What Is Your Gear Style:
Minimalist
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

My poles came with a broken elastic connector and my bag ripped when first opening the tent. Ventelation is bad. Unless you're looking for limited use, fork over more $ for a better tent that will last you and perform better.

Hot and no airflow

By Heatstroke Jenni from Indianapolis, IN on 08/10/2009

Pros:
Easy To Set Up
Cons:
Collects Condensation, Leaks at seams, No airflow, No screens, Poor Fly Design
Describe Yourself:
Casual Adventurer
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

There is NO rear door. The "breathable mesh vent" is sewn over and there are NO screens, none. Therefore no airflow and it is HOT. We got sick. Where the middle poles connect to the tent bottom, water came in during a rainshower at the seams. The zipper broke on the bag and the front fly is very hard to zip. Poorly made tent and misadvertised.

This tent is a joke...the fly doesnt work, the seams ripped, and it couldnt hold up in the rain at all....it caved in and soaked us at 3am! We used this ten 3 times this summer and as long as it wasnt raining it was fine.
