Summary: Great for the once a year camper!

Summary: Excellent for the money
Comment: I bought this tent for fun camping trips to state parks with my family of 5. The price was so low, I set it up as soon as it arrived to make sure it wasn't flimsy or smaller than the description. I'm glad to say it is a good tent. It provides plenty of room for sleeping two adults and three small boys (ages 2-7), even with some of our gear in the tent with us. It is easy to set up (easier with two people) and we have stayed dry and comfortable even in foggy/rainy weather (no storms, though). I feel like the features and performance exceed the price.

Summary: Loved this tent.
Comment: When looking for a tent for camping on the river, I naturally called my dad. He is, after all, an avid camper and a former boyscout leader. He recommended a few things. First, a tent that uses more than two poles for the base. This one uses 4 on the base and fit that requirement perfectly. Second was a fly that came down more than half way. Once again, this tent fits the bill. My lazy husband was off doing something other than helping me and somehow I managed to put this tent up almost all by myself. The sleeves for the poles are color coded which makes it very easy to figure out. The only thing I needed assistance with, was lifting up the top of the tent after all the poles were in place so I could lock them into the grommets on the bottom. The windows and doors are large and allow the breeze to come through. The tent is spacious enough for 4 people comfortably. It even rained and the tent stayed perfectly dry. My ONLY complaint, which is more a suggestion to the manufacturer, would be that the door's zipper begin at the top of the door opening, instead of the side. Then you'd be able to zip close the door with one hand, instead of holding the door up and closed with one hand and zipping with the other.

Summary: Keep shopping...
Comment: The tent is great for space. My husband and I had enough room for a large sleeping area, two suitcases, and our dog. I was able to stand up while changing, that was awesome! I liked the fly, it kept the top of the tent dry and covered the tent well. We also have enjoyed how sleek looking the tent is when the fly is on. Shortly after we fell in love with our new tent, the trouble began...
After four camping trips, all this stuff had gone wrong: Zipper broke to main entrance forcing us to duct tape it closed for the remainder of our trip, fly buckle snapped, rivet broke off of the tent pole canvas flap, the mesh hanging ceiling storage space ripped on one corner, a fly pole snapped, and a tent pole splintered. Other features that we felt were unnecessary and got in the way: the bay windows create two extra lines that trip people walking by, the mud flap tends to collect dirt just waiting to be tracked into the tent, and back door has two zippers inconveniently placed.
Before this tent, we had a smaller Wenger and that lasted us four years, although we eventually had a problem with the main entrance zipper. We love the Wenger brand and in other areas have had good luck with their merchandise. Unfortunately we will not be purchasing another Wenger, as the tents have proven to be unreliable.

Summary: dont waste your money
Comment: This isn't my first dome so operator error is not the issue. First time setting this up the screening on the upper left side just opened up like a zipper. Its not true no seeum netting its some fish net looking weave and the material is weak. Thanks to a roll of duct tape we didn't get any large bugs in but we had some tiny ones that were able to get by weave of the netting. The configuration of the shoe ports are a total waste. The space it wastes could have been put to better use by just leaving the square design alone and the threshold door mat is nothing more than a gimmick. Waste of time and money. I've been camping for well over 30 years and most of that is from a back pack so this isn't from a week end warrior car camper.
