The Full Review
What a great tent! Not only was it the easiest tent to set up, it was also the roomiest! The simplicity of building the tent was what won me over. We had it up and covered with the rain fly in less than 5 minutes. After setting up the tent, I walked into the tent without leaning over. I love that I can stand up in the tent and my head doesn't even come close to touching the ceiling. This tent is perfect for family camping since it's roomy enough for 6 people, but is super awesome for a couple of people that love having the extra space.
The Good:
The tent is made with super durable aluminum tent poles and it comes with a rainfly. I also found the built in pockets inside the tent were super convenient for easy access stuff such as my glasses.
The Bad:
The only "bad" is the tent doesn't come with a footprint, but luckily Next Adventure sells Tarps and Tyvek.
The Bottom Line:
I completely love this tent and would recommend it for large groups, couples that want extra room, or festival goers.
