Product Description
Weather Armor polyester fabric provides our tent with tremendous reliability and toughness and is enhanced with an additional polyurethane coating, that protects the tent from top to bottom. Made with our sonic sealed floors that are welded, not sewn, therefore eliminating stitching and needle holes that create another potential area for water to penetrate. Armor tough seams throughout the body of the tent, are done with our sewing technique that incorporates double stitched, lap-feld seams that provide a stronger shingle effect against water. Weather Armor details have all threads, zippers and webbing treated with superior water repellency applications to enforce these critical areas. The included rain shingle layer on the lower portion of the tent wall provides a water shed effect.

Great tent for the price
I bought this tent for Spring Vacation for the children and I.
I did not set this tent up before going on vacation to the coast in Oregon.
Once we got to the campsite and I took it out of the box;the directions were easy and it was easy to set up, but I have set up tents before.
There are 6 poles, 2 of which you really don't have to use if you don't want too as they just go for small flaps over doorway and in the back over window, I did not use them camping, but do now use them with the tent set up at home in the yard for the kids.
In compairing size of the tent to the price with other tents, this tent is a very large tent for the money I paid.
I am happy with it, I am happy with it and the extra room is great for putting everything in the tent you don't want to leave out when leaving camp for the day.
It rained very hard the first night camping, the wind blew awful too.
The tent comes with great stakes and metal rings on the corners not just rings sewed into the material itself. I really like that.
At one point I thought the tent would blow away with us in it. It never did. It held fast using the system of directions they provided and that was amazing to me!
I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 only because it is not the quality of tent that more expensive tents are (ie zippers), but it is a great tent for the money.
I would buy this tent again if I could still get it for the price I paid of alittle over $80.00 and it qualified for free shipping which was wonderful.
Great tent for the money
The tent was ordered on 4/29/08 and it arrived on 05/01/08 I assembled it when I got home in about 20 minutes alone by myself with little help from the directions. It has been about 25 years since my boy scout days since I've put up a tent and was very impressed with the ease of assembly. I did apply a seam sealer to the rain fly and windows/doors and such(which should be done on any tent no matter the brand or cost). I camped in it on Friday 05/02/08 and had a huge test for my new tent. During the night I had a severe thunderstorm that dumped about 2 1/2 inches of rain, 25-40 mph winds, horrific lightning and tornado watch all over middle Tenneessee all of this in a time frame of 2 hours. I naturally had a few very minor drips inside the tent and some water coming around the bottom of the door, but with that amount of water and wind I knew I would have some, but pleased with how it held up. The only thing I did not like was the open vents along the top of the tent. This will be great for ventilation when warm outside, but with its design a 35-40 degree night is gonna be a cold because of the open roof design.
The ease of assembly, the strength of structure once it is assembled, the appearance and the fact that there is enough room inside the tent for my small family and my 2 large Labs and my gear has made me happy with this purchase and I highly recommend this tent to anyone.
Leaks!!!
This tent is supposed to be water proof but I bought it for my birthday weekend and it only lightly rained and it seemed like nothing got wet until we packed up to go home and there were puddles of water under my air mattress that were coming from the corners of the tent....All four corners....
So I was pretty upset since it was brand new and that was my first use of it but I took it back to the store right away and got my money back for it so that was good.
