Straight to the pros and cons.Pros:-Set up in 15min, EZ-Plenty of zip up openings.-Mesh second layer so tart sections can be pulled up for fresh air.-both long sides can turn into awnings.-triangular end points can actually fit alot of stuff.-material is definitely super tough and waterproof.-Doesn't really need the tiedowns to stand up.-oacks back up easily.Cons:-The tiedown ropes are kind of stretchy, the tent will sag a bit after being left overnight.-was missing some stakes, but they're kind of small too. Don't use them in soft ground.-the mesh inner wall kinda sags in making the tent feel smaller than it is.Other than the small fries things this tent is great, it was very useful for camping in Sheboygan for an event and I'll be using it again for sure. Just gonna get a smaller cot and upgrade to some non stretchy lashings and broader stakes.I really have grown to like this company's products. And this tent did not disappoint at all. I have used it an a number of Scout campouts . It has excellent ventilation and is just the right size for me. (If needed I could fit in another also ). Next purchase will be the hammock hot tent !What's to say about this tent? A baker-style tent one day, a large pup tent the next, an open-air bug-free space the next. Two good vestibules, four doors, two "porches", this thing tries to do it all. It does it well. It isn't for backpacking unless you are a weight lifter, but for bicycling, canoeing, car camping, or in a pulk in the winter, it is remarkable.This is an unconventional tent than your standard dome tent. It offers little to no wind protection if the wind were to catch under the outer tarp. I used it in some pretty windy conditions and one of the tent poles collapsed even after tying it down. But the next night, there was no wind and the tent was super cozy. Spacious for one person with gear, but will fit 2 if you don’t mind being close.It there was a way to completely block off the wind, I would give a 5/5 rating, but since you’d normally have a sleeping bag or blanket, it was fine.Also, having an extra pair of hands to help set up is a plus, but it is doable by yourself.Good: light weight, lots of mesh screens, sleeps two (small) people, front "porch" is a nice addition, seems well made but we haven't tested in the rain or had it outdoors for long yet.Bad: The first time set up was difficult; some instructions would have been ever so helpful. The two poles that hold the tent up need a pocket to hold them in place. (After fidgeting with them for an hour we could not get them to set straight.) The outside front and back tent pieces need an outside tie to roll it up out of the way without using poles. The only for them to be out of the way and have the mesh down only is to use the poles. For the price... 6 POLES should have been included... the picture is deceiving, as the back porch is held by poles that aren't included and cannot be purchased through OneTigris separately. I purchased a second set for $30 on Amazon.I would probably look for another tent with the same features. It needs some design work to make it worth the $200 price tag.Great tent, light enough for backpacking. I love the end compartments, fits my large alice pack perfectly. Guylines could be a tad longer, but they work as is. I do reccomend longer stakes, as the tent isn't freestanding so its shape is dependent on a good staking job.Great tent. Especially in this heat wave, being able to fully open it up for moving air, while still being able to maintain shade and bug protection was awesome. It was roomy enough to sleep two adults and a medium dog. Easy setup and breakdown.Ventilation is incredible in this tent. It still condensates pretty bad, but what I do is put a tarp on top to have the water collect on it instead. It kind of works. Overall the quality is worth the price.Pros: the quality is good. I loved the guy lines, it didn't get loose even with the heavy winds. The pegs are also good quality but (I will use my own pegs) it is not long enough for soft grounds. Each pole comes with 3 pieces (×4).Setup: firstly zip up all the zippers, than stake 4 corners of the tent. Than the poles that hold the tent upright and than the smallervestibular area.I can still enjoy the outdoor view while still sitting inside the tent. Will definitely recommend it for 3 seasons but not for winters. Reason being the 2 side vestibular area doesn't close all the way and it might get breezy during cold winds. The center of the tent does come with a pre installed clip to hold the night lamp or fan. The mesh/net is a blessing because it saved us from all the mosquitoes and still didn't block the view. Plus definitely good air flow.Too small,
