I wanted a tent that slept two people with extra storage space AND that I could stand up inside. This ended up being the perfect solution for my needs. By placing a sleeping bag on each side of the door, we had a large enough center aisle to accommodate our cooler and “laundry pod”. For two people, despite the small foot print, this is a roomy tent and an amazing value. So for the Pros and cons, here you go PROS 1.) Easy to set up. One person could do it, but two of us had it up quickly. Less than 15 minutes. 2.) Storage Bag was small but it wasn’t difficult to get the tent back inside and it fit easily! 3.) Seams were well stitched and zippers worked fine on ours. I could see where some people complained about the rain flap getting caught in the zipper, but we didn’t have that issue. 4.) Tent stayed dry inside during a storm. 5.) As mentioned above, it was roomy for the two of us the way we set it up. 6.) We could easily stand in the center and it did t feel claustrophobic. 7.) With the windows open we had nice cross ventilation. 8.) We thought it was a great value for the price. CONS: 1.) Unless you have three very small people (like two adults and a small child, or three small children) I don’t think this tent would be large enough. Frankly, I couldn’t imagine putting four people in the one we purchased which said “2-4 people”. 2.) There wasn’t really a good layout for us to put two sleeping bags side by side or put in an air mattress for two people (like a full or queen sized one). Someone would always end up crawling over someone else to get in and out of the tent. We ended up putting our air mattress away and used our cots-one on each side of the door. So not able to cuddle and snuggle at night as we’re older and sometime in the middle of the night, we have to get up to use the bathroom. We tried multiple arrangements including putting two sleeping bags side by side running parallel to the back wall, but again, one of us had to crawl over the other to leave the tent with our bedding in that position. 3.) It would have been nice to have a couple more pockets for storing cell phones and cords, OR a hook from the center ceiling where a light could hang. (We had to tie one onto the strings.) Again for the price, that might be asking for too much. Read more

So first I want to say that this is the perfect size for me. I also could see it fitting another person comfortably as well. I saw some other reviews saying “it couldn’t fit 4 people” and that’s because a 4 person tent is max capacity. Like 4 people could sleep in that tent if it’s just 4 people on small mats. I always suggest getting a tent for twice the people you need it for. So if you need a tent that fits 4 comfortably, get an 8 person tent. I like this size tent for just me, because it makes me feel like I have my own room and there is room for my big air mattress and my duffel bag and room to change. I am 5’6.5” and there is more than enough room for me to stand up and change in it. I wanted to wait a couple of camping trips to make a review so I could experience different type of weather conditions in it. First weekend was sunny and at times windy and the tent really protected from the wind. The second weekend was rainy and it kept everything dry except when I stupidly left the windows down the rain got the corner of my air mattress wet. But that’s more user error. 🤣 With the windows down it stayed still remarkably dry for how hard it was raining in all directions. The only issue I really have with it which isn’t too big of a deal, but there are some orange flaps over the zipper, but they go different directions. Like the top flap comes down and the bottom goes up. So you have to stop the bottom and top zippers at the right time or the orange flaps will get stuck in the zipper, which is irritating. But can easily fixed by pulling the orange flap out. Idk if that makes any sense. But when you see it you’ll know what I mean. I would still HIGHLY suggest this tent. Also, it’s not a 2 minute set up like it suggests. But I wasn’t actually expecting it would be. It took me more than 2 minutes to just put the tent stakes in. Maybe it could take 2 minutes if there was an Olympic sport called “speed tent setting up!” 🤣 Still really easy set up though for someone who doesn’t typically set up tents. It is really good quality for around $100. Read more
I bought this tent a year ago and am very pleased with it. I wanted to get back into camping, but as an older adult needed enough room for a cot and ability to stand upright. This provides room to do both, plus enough space for a camp chair and limited storage. The most difficult part of setting it up is putting on the rain fly. I’m short (5’4”F) but can manage setup in under 10 minutes. Take down is easy and the bag it came in is roomy and easy to pack back up. Earlier this year, its durability was put to the test. It withstood a severe thunderstorm, hail, and high winds that come with a tornado warning (50+ mph). Currently sitting inside during a downpour and the only leaks are from me peaking out the zipper windows or opening the door to get snacks out of my car. The reason I gave it 4 stars was after 6 camping trips in a year, the sides are starting to sag inward. This hasn’t affected its ability to keep rain out even during downpours. Read more
