Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this tent 5 months ago and have spent many weekends this Summer living in it. I travel to a lot of music festivals and wanted something weather-proof, roomy, and tall enough to stand up in. These requirements were nicely met (and exceeded) by this tent. It is much roomier that your typical 4-person tent. At aproximately 9'X9', the interior easily fits a queen-size inflatible matteress with plenty of room on all sides for tons of gear. The nice thing about the height of this tent is that the roof is at its maximum height right inside the door - not just in the very center like most dome tents.
As far as being weather-proof, I've endured a few nasty wind and rain storms and I haven't gotten a drop of rain in it; The full-coverage rain fly on this tent is a wonderful feature. This tent also has lots of nice buckles, velcro, and elastic hooks secure everything firmly in place. Well-placed screening and vents keep air circulating in hot weather.
My gripes with this tent are few. One is that I've never been able to roll it up tight enough to fit all of the pieces back into the original carrying case. My other gripe is that the tent poles are so long, its difficult to set up in close quarters (between trees, other tents, etc.) and a bit of a struggle for one person.
I found the picture of this tent misleading and didn't understand the purpose of the ground flaps around the door until I saw it set up. The flaps secure the vestibule - a nice place to store your cooler, shoes, and chairs out of the weather or to use like a screen room to avoid insects. Go to the Kelty website to see a picture of the tent with the vestible attached.
All in all, I'm very happy I 'upgraded' from my usual department store-type tent to this much higher quality tent. Worth every penny!
