"Condo" Tent

Review Date: July 18, 2007

I spent the last 15 years backpacking and looking down my nose at car campers. THEN I had two kids 18 months and 4 1/2. I now appreciate the TRUE value of having seperate rooms (still waiting for tent-sound proofing technology) and the ability to stand up and change. If you are car-camping with kids THIS is the tent!!!!

Great Tent

Review Date: November 6, 2006

Reviewer: C. Townsend,

I needed a tent that would fit my queen size mattress along with enough room for me to stand and change in, and this tent fit the bill! With mattress on one side,and ammenities on the other, I still had plenty of room in the center for movement and was able to stand upright.

Excellent Buy

This is an excellent tent. We bought it to replace a Coleman tent and couldn't be happier. There is plenty of room inside for 6 adults. It is simple to set-up, my wife assembled it together in about 10 minutes. We braved one night in the tent with rain and 30 mph wind gusts and the tent performed flawlessly, no leaks! I highly recommend this tent.

I purchased this tent late this summer after constantly borrowing a friend of mine's large tent. It has been easy to set up and provides great air circulation. I have not gone off on a trip on a rainy week-end so I cannot attest to the waterproofness just yet. The tent came quickly in the mail though and I am very happy with my purchase!

Pretty good tent

I just bought 2 of these tents for a camping trip in the summer time and me and my son just got done running threw the set up and it looks like a pretty good tent but I read the reviews and I am one that doesn't want to get wet so I will be putting seem sealer on the seems and I found a tarp that was 18 feet wide and 24 feet long that will cover the whole tent just in case but that is just to be safe I think it looks like a pretty good tent and it will be enough room for me and my son to put 2 sleeping cots and duffle bags in but I don't think I would try putting 7 people in it it is way to small for that may be if they were little kids that would work.
I also want to add this it comes with very little stakes I would buy some 10 inch stakes from the sporting goods department at walmart there about $3.00 for 4 you will need 12 stakes the tarp I got came from Ebay for $20.00 pluse 10.00 shipping it would be a good back up to the rain fly and don't let kids play with the zipper doors there ok but will in my opinion be the fist thing to break or snag.
I know with the advice I just gave you it my seem like this tent has some problems but I just want you to know if you don't already know that any tent can leake and have zippers that could snag no matter how much you pay for them if you plan a head and take care of this tent it is a pretty good tent for the price and I checked out a lot of tents there really expensive so you could spend a lot more and may be have a better one or have more money in it but still have leaks I payed 3 times the amount I payed for this one and it leaked like a Stainer.
So Good luck what ever you decide and have a safe and fun camping trip.
