  • A great tent for fair weather, non-avid camper
Color: Multicolor
For under $30, its not a bad tent for a single person fair weather backpacking tent, or a lightweight small packaged tent to tote in saddlebags on a motorcycle, or whatever your fair weather camping scenario may be. The walls of the tent does seem thin, so id imagine it could rip easily and also to let water in. Im assuming its not really water sealed from the factory, as it gave directions/tips for sealing. But for less than $30, do you really expect a bunch of labor to go into a tent and for it to perform like a higher end tent at a higher end price? Not really. BUT you can take steps to up the game on this tent. Even higher end tents recommend a tarp underneath the tent (sorry brain fart for technical name). So doing that, will add more protection to the floor of the tent, even though the tent floor is equivalent to a lower grade tarp. But still good enough on its own if you take extra leg work before you set the tent up (picking up limbs or anything that may puncture the floor). Now, you can carry an extra tarp, cordage, and stakes to use as a rainfly. This will greatly aid in waterproofing. Now youre thinking, great gonna have to find the right group of trees to set up for the rain fly. Not necessarily, unless you want the rainfly up more off the tent. What i done when i tried the tent out, the poles have a 2-3 inch piece that comes up through the connector piece on the top portion of tent on both sides. You have to tie the poles off with cordage and staked so they will stay standing anyways. What ive done was take the extra cordage, run it from one stake for the pole and then wrap it around that pole. Then run it to the other pole, wrap it and then run to that pole's stake. Youll want to make sure this cordage is tight or else youre just wasting time with that piece of cordage. Run your tarp over the cordage and tent. This where the extra stakes and some more cordage comes into play. Stake down the tarp, using the cordage unless you find just the right size tarp. I have to break out the tape measure but i either have a 4.5'x6.5' or 5.5'×7.5' but thinking the smaller and it worked just fine. Just make sure when you stake down the tent, that its tight as well unless you dont mind hearing the tarp flapping on the tent during the night with wind. I seen some mixed reviews saying that they did or did not receive a tent with a small back window. (Its currently Jan 18, 2020 as im writing this review) I ordered this tent last weekend, or even monday even so i got it this week. Well mine did have the window. Mine doesnt zip at all but does have velcro on the outside of tent so it doesnt flap around in the wind when closed. You do have to be outside of the tent to open or close this flap, you cannot do it from the inside. People have also "complained" about condensation buildup on the inside, mainly the walls. Ive only slept in this tent for one night so far, i live in Florida but had low humidity yesterday/last night when i slept in it (so less moisture in the air). I had the back window open but the door flaps closed. I had no condensation inside the tent. But if you do have higher humidity and bigger changes in temps from light to dark and little to no air movement through the tent (best conditions for condensation inside tent, had well "vented" tents with rainfly on get condensation inside), id imagine a portable battery powered fan may help. I would say if you are over 5'10, you may not enjoy this tent. Im 5'3"-4" and had about 6 inches from my feet to end of tent with my head against other side of tent. This isnt a roomy tent by much means, its meant for you to have basic shelter for you to sleep in and thats about it. If you are sleeping solo, you do have room for your gear, if you're like backpacking. But not so much room for other stuff if sleeping 2. Sleeping 2 is doable, but id suggest you two be that good with each other to sleep shoulder to shoulder (you get the idea, youll be touching pretty much. May not if stiff as a board and both is skin n bones but once one moves, youll touch). Sitting up, well you can forget that. You can crawl in and out, be on your hands n knees but nothing more. I wont bore you anymore. I like this tent for what it is. Remember, its a tent for less than $30 but a good tent for a fair weather camper that doent camp so often. If your gonna camp alot, i would suggest spend some extra money for a higher end tent (like an avid through hiker but could work in a pinch). Ive added some photos and one of those is adding a guy line for the rainfly tarp. It is loose, but does the job to show you what im talking about. ... show more

  • Perfectly Functional for Shorter/Smaller People, with tips for improvement.
Color: Multicolor
When my private multi-bajillion dollar jet is in the shop so that the golden toilet can be replaced after each flight, I find myself more often than not flying Spirit Airlines because of their wonderful carry-on bag policy. Since my personal assistant only gets to use 30 minutes of computer/internet time per day, and I limit him to using Walmart Connect's dialup service, he often forgets/does not have time to make sure to book me the 26$ carry on bag fare. Which in the long run is fine with me, because I dock him a week's pay for such atrocities, and use the money that I would have paid him to purchase a dodo egg so I can make a dodo egg/unicorn meat omelette. Don't worry, I know a guy. I also like to sit in the aisle on commercial airplanes because I need the leg space. My first wife disappeared into a Gulag never to be seen again because she insinuated that because I am only 5' 2.5" with a proportionately longer torso than legs, that I should be ok sitting in the middle or against the window. She also didn't understand why I like to put both armrests down, even if I have plenty of space to spare on each side because of my smallish frame. That's how people end up in the Gulag. I decided to blend in with the common people this past weekend when I had an event to attend to, and I had heard wonderful things about this mode of transportation called an "automobile." I thought I'd give it a try; I mean, how hard could it be compared to playing Forza 8 on my giant TV screen? I had also saved enough money up that I could buy a Bugatti Veyron, but for whatever reason the dealership that I went to called Carmax didn't have any available. Why would they call themselves "Carmax"? Luckily my personal assistant has what he refers to as a "minivan", and I told him that he could use 2 hours of my dedicated 100G LTE^2 connection per day if he let me borrow it. He was super excited, and kept prattling on about this thing called "e-mail" and how quickly he could send messages to people. I have no idea what he is talking about, of course, because when I want to "send a message", people just end up in the Gulag. Since I wasn't flying on Spirit, I had 26$ to spend on whatever I wanted. It's hard for me deal with those types of numbers because it didn't have a zero or a comma in it, but I saw a photo of people with tents, and they looked like they were smiling, so I bought this particular "scout" tent. For some reason, this company Amazon wouldn't let me pay for a tent with a 1,000 bill over the phone, so I had my assistant order me one. In return, I set the heat to 62 degrees in his living quarters instead of 55. **** For reference, I am actually pretty short and have a small build, and I do drive a minivan when I go camping. My wife is not in the Gulag, though she does question why I need the aisle when I have really short legs. I don't have a private jet, I don't fly Spirit Airlines, I don't have a personal assistant, and I don't know what a 1,000$ bill looks like. I do have this particular tent though, and I used it when I completed a recent 24-hour run. A few thoughts: - As a first order of business, I recommend you getting rid of the stakes that come with this tent and replacing them with heavier duty ones. - As a second order of business, getting rid of the cheap nylon lines that come with the tent would also be helpful. Using the light/thin versions of rockstraps would work much better, and if you're using this to tour on a motorcycle, you probably have rockstraps or something similar laying around as it is. - Setup is remarkably easy and quick. Six stakes to hold the tent down, two poles that hold the tent up tied to two stakes, and two additional lines tied to two stakes that give width to the tent, though conceivably with one person, you won't really need the extra width. To recap: 4 lines, 2 poles, and 10 stakes. - As others have noted, the design and position of the pole by the front "door" makes it a bit tricky to get in and out. I have the luxury of being both short and small, so it wasn't an issue for me just to wiggle my body through, but anyone of average height or average build will probably look like a bear trying to get into a Fiat. - I can't speak to how well this thing fends off water since it was pleasant the entire weekend, but applying sealant would be an easy and worthwhile task. I didn't experience any condensation inside overnight, but maybe that's because I had the door cracked the entire time. - The design and shape of the tent would make it slightly difficult to find a protector/pad that fits perfectly. If you're worried about keeping the floor in good shape, you'd probably be better off just cutting/folding a tarp to the right size so that you could still access the stake holes. - I was able to fit a sleeping bag, a portable power source, and a styrofoam cooler all inside the tent without any issues. I probably could have fit one of my dogs in there too, but they stayed at home with my wife (who is not actually in the Gulag, remember). - The sack that the tent comes with is pretty decent, but if you're converting to better quality stakes and/or have other camping accessories, you're better off leaving the stakes and lines out and just putting those in a separate bag somewhere. Or finding just a slightly larger sack to carry them all in comfortably. Overall - price is right, really functional, and with a few small mods (better lines, better stakes, maybe sealant), this should last you several years and lots of fun. ... show more

  • Great tent for the price
Color: Orange
It is a great tent and I would just recommend that you buy new tir down ropes for it the ones it comes with are pretty cheap but is expected but they work just fine for what I use it for and I also waterproofed it so no rain leaks in and it is just a great tent overall
