5 Reasons to Avoid
- The tent is relatively heavy to carry compared to other tents in this category.
- A couple of reviewers mention that the design of the outer door leads to water becoming trapped and falling on you in the morning. This happens apparently even when you shake the entrance first.
- One reviewer stated that in high winds, the pole supporting the porch shattered.
- A single reviewer stated that if the tent is not set up facing the wind, there is very little air circulation.
- A few campers said water had got into their tent, sometimes resulting from a build-up of water in the porch and other times through the zip. However, reviews on this tents performance in wet weather are mixed.
The Bottom Line
This tent is easy to set up, relatively spacious due to the dome design and has a generous porch area. It fairs reasonably in very wet conditions but is not appropriate for very high winds. This tent is good for somebody that enjoys having a little more head room and a basic tent for setup. Be sure to set it up facing into the wind to ensure proper circulation in warmer conditions.
