Weve used this tent in our last to trips to the mountains.
The tent is quite large, and has a nice area that is insulated from bugs. You can install two chairs and seat to read a book outside without being bothered by mosquitoes and the like, which is nice.
What I did not like:
- The back window is covered by the rain cover. You can make the rain cover close it by tying close to the tent, but there is no way to open it or close it from inside. This in my mind is the worst thing about the tent.
- The main door only opens to one side. My previous tent opened both sides and had a nice bug net that could be left closed with the door opened. Like the back window, this should be better.
- Overall air circulation could be better, and at the same time, if you try to close everything so the temperature is not too low at night, you wont get what you expect and the tent will get very cold. Our first night, it was about 50 outside and it was very cold in the tent. We had to be well wrapped in our sleeping bags
Overall we are just OK with it. I would not buy this tent again.
Borderline reasonable tent for the money
