There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I was a bit weary of the “instatent” aspect because I’ve camped in pole tents my entire life. Some of the reviews were concerning and gave me pause but I am grateful I gave it a chance. It took my husband and I twenty minutes to put it up the first time. We get faster each time we do it and continue to marvel how simple it is to both set and tear down this tent. We are down to about 5 minutes.
As for people complaining about a tablespoon of rain getting into their tent….COME ON!! You’re in a tent! No tent is completely rain proof. We survived two thunderstorms that were quite violent (30 mph winds, thunder lightning, driving rain). We had to put the rainfly on in the dark because the rain wasn’t forecast therefore was a complete surprise. However, due to the simplicity of how you put it on and that we practiced putting it on, we had no problems getting it on.
What we liked about the tent:
* It’s huge! My husband is 6’3” and dome tents are a pain for him since he has to continually stoop.
* The air vents are amazing for air flow. Even when it rained we stayed dry but we’re able to maintain adequate airflow so we didn’t get stifling hot with the windows closed.
* The amount of windows in this tent is amazing. I especially love the screened ceiling. Star gazing is quite a thing in this tent.
*Once you figure it out and practice set up and tear down are SO easy!!! One word of caution: MIND YOUR FINGERS!! My husband got his caught in the central hub the first time we tore this down and it got smashed pretty hard.
* Other than the Tbsp of water that got in from the gap in the T door (which I think is an acceptable amount from a violent storm in a tent) we stayed bone dry!
* I had concerns about the integrity of the structure due to the bed reviews I read. However, I can tell you that this tent will stand up to strong winds. This is a strong tent.
What could be improved:
*The front T door zipper is kind of a let down. Where the three zippers come together at the bottom leaves a gap (see pic). They did a nice job providing flaps that should cover the gap so water doesn’t get in (spoiler alert: it does but only about a tablespoon or so). However, the flap does nothing to address the issue of unwanted guests. This was blatantly obvious to me when we set it up at home before taking it out. During this trip, I sprayed it with bug spray which kind of worked (ants still got in). I am thinking about zip tying all three zippers together and finding some way of just sealing that hole permanently so it’s one giant window unless I can find another way to fix this.
* The rainfly straps hook onto the pole under the green lock/collapse button. During the second thunderstorm, the wind pushed the strap around the rest on top of that button collapsing that pole mid storm. Perhaps putting that button on the underside of the pole is a more appropriate location?
*This tent does come with what we call “flimsy ass stakes.” We bought beefier stakes for the tent as we found the extra cost saved us in energy and frustration. (Hint, use the cheap stakes for other things like staking your collapsible garbage can).
*While putting the tent away and into its bag, one of the clips had a piece break off (see pic). It still clips and holds but, this is a new clip and shouldn’t be breaking like that already. Thumbs down!
Since this was our first outing, I am somewhat limited in experience with this tent. I will add/edit this review as I used this tent further.

Pros:
1. FAST setup and takedown. This is the best part. This thing goes up and comes down in a couple of minutes. This is great compared to the 10-15 minutes of the old Coleman.
2. It is huge. There is plenty of room for people to stand up and walk around. I always divide the stated number of occupants in half for comfort. So I'd say it comfortably sleeps 6-8. With only 4 people, you have room to play games or put a table, fan, etc.
3. Rain fly has quick-attach buckles. The rain fly is normally the worst part of setting up a tent for me, but this one is quick and easy.
4. The bag is generously sized. It doesn't take any effort to get the tent back in the bag. If you've set up a bunch of tents, you know how this can sometimes be a pain at the end of a trip.
5. There are plenty of pockets for storage.
6. The velcro on the cord slot works well to seal the entry when running a cord inside
7. There are plenty of windows, and the airflow is good.
Cons:
1. The rain-fly pole is a kind of a pain to get in there. Once you get in, it seems like it would come out, but it usually stays.
2. It isn't the most waterproof around the seams. I didn't really have many issues, but I did buy some waterproofing spray just to make sure.
3. The way the doors are constructed makes it easy to get the zipper stuck. Not a major deal, but it is annoying.
4. The stakes are normal cheap tent stakes. It would be worth an upgrade if you will frequently use the tent
5. It is quite heavy. The built-in poles kind of cause this. You probably will not want to carry it very far.
6. The room dividers aren't the best. You can use them, but they felt like an afterthought in the design.
Overall, I love the tent. I will use it for many years. I definitely recommend it!
