6 Person Easy Pop Up Tent- Rainproof, Automatic Setup,Waterproof,Double Layer - Instant Family Tents for Camping,Hiking & Traveling,Blue

The design was kind of weird at first bc the mud room part on the front is all open along the bottom of the perimeter of the tent and it stays open like that all the way around the sleeping area so there is like a 6" gap between the sleeping quarters and the outside of the tent all the way round and over top the sleeping chamber (reminds me of like a space shuttle type design) this is amazing though! This design tricks bugs into thinking they're in your tent with you but they really arent. We get mosquitoes even in our house every night and we hadnt slept good in 2months due to having to put bug spray on to go to bed. The first night camping in this tent was heaven 😍 honestly just wanted to use it in our bedroom for bug control even at home lol. Plus also bc of this design it makes it super easy to sweep tree needles and dirt off the floor of the mudroom bc it's all open you just sweep it out onto the ground no need to try to get it over the zipper opening or out of the seams (minus you still have this problem inside the sleeping quarters part but only if you dont wipe your feet before going in). We had a queen sized air mattress for me and my 6ft bf plus with our dog who did sleep in with us (the pictures show her in the mud room tho bc when she was wet from swimming it was great we could just lock her out in there until she dried) and that still left us with about 1.5ft on either side for clothing and other items, plus the mud room you also get about a 2ft by 2ft spot on either side for storage. We've used it for a total of 7 days so far that is 2 seperate camping trips. It did leak a tiny tiny bit near one of the seems along the room at the back but we were getting tornado downpours every few hrs for 3 out of the 4days of our first camping trip so I saw no judgment on it (every other tent weve bought an used hasnt lasted the one camping trip without poles snapping or zippers coming apart, my bf is hard on zippers bc he has giant hands lol) the zippers on this feel way better quality than most and have yet to get stuck or pull apart, even with a pit bull trying to run through it on occasion lol. The hardest part about setting it up is not getting knocked out by it as it springs open lol. To put it back together really not too bad I have to keep looking at the instruction manual as I go through the folding steps but really only the last fold makes me nervous bc it doesnt feel like it's going to fold. But once it does it fits back in its bag easily and it has 2 straps on it for easy carrying. I think the only things I could see for improvement would be another opening for air flow along the back the inside layer is screen but there is no zipper opening along the outside cover to be able to open it.. The side window flaps I would of liked some rivets in them so I could string them out as a rain cover for the windows so we could leave them open when it rained (The door has these). And also with the side windows I could of liked the inside layers zipper to go farther across instead of only like a foot wide to reach through to the outer window zipper and flap. A minimum 2ft zipper would of been way handier!

I have put this tent through the ringers of 5 campouts thus far this summer and it holds up well....it DOES take some practice on how to twist-fold the beams to pack it down after use, but the poles do not break despite having to torque them into place with folding it up for storage. My Verdict: Recommended for 1-2 people; well-made and is good for easy camping use with little setup needed. THE PROS: 1. Popup setup - really IS easy. Literally throw it at the spot and it just about pops up on its own. 2. Well-made; stitches and zippers are good quality; mosquito mesh is fine and small thread, so most mosquitoes and small knat-like bugs cannot get through. 3. Material is durable; does not tear 4. Waterproof (I only had one time when it rained lightly, and i stayed dry inside) THE CONS: 1. Packing up by bending/twisting the poles to fit it bag into the storage bag DOES takes practice (its a learning curve) 2. Interior space; not much headroom when entering or leaving the front entrance (your back might get strained unless you go in or out of the tent entrance on your hands and knees), but sitting inside is fine. You need to kneel when getting in or out of the tent, due to the low ceiling. 3. Front entry area - wished they had used that for lengthening the interior/sleeping area more. Kind of wasted space, if you ask me. 4. Ventilation: Its okay, but on the opposite end of the tent, away from the front entrance, the small vent window is not adequate for letting in enough air on hot days. 5. Realistically, there's enough interior room for 2 people laying side-by-side with inflatable twin-size mattresses....you could fit three 6' tall adults in there, but would have little extra room beyond the three sleeping bags and the people would be laying shoulder-to-shoulder...I am 6'2" tall and with my head almost touching the far end when laying down, my feet almost push against the interior netting near the entrance... 6. The tent stakes provided with the tent are really thin, flimsy and bend very easily when hammering into the ground -- much better to get more sturdy (thicker) tent stakes separately to use instead.

Easy setup. Took 2-3mins to fold and pack up.

Never been camping before, so I was looking for an easy-to-set-up tent, I saw the videos, and thought why not give this one a try. It truly was a snap to set up! I would recommend getting a tarp to put under though since the material at the bottom is the same as all-around and I think it will help protect it from mud and moisture. My son loved it immediately. It's very spacious, definitely don't open it in the living room unless your house is huge! I'm 5'7", and was able to fit width-wise laying down. My husband who is over 6 feet might have a harder time fitting in that direction but would have no problem fitting length wise with room to spare. Could comfortably fit another adult/teen and one or two more kids. I like that there are two zippered "doors" - one at the entry to the vestibule, one inside. Just for the extra bug protection. In effect the tent has two layers - which I hope will also help keep the rain out. There are two netted side windows too for ventilation (also double layer of netting), that also close, and a tiny ventilation vent on the back - kind of wish that was a little bigger, but I guess it's at least a way for air to get in when it's raining to prevent suffocation, it's a flap sewn down on the sides with a little piece to prop it open at the bottom, so unless it's raining upwards, it should keep water out. It was not super hot out when we tested it, but I can see how it could get hot if it's in direct sun with no breeze. That's one reason I choose one of the lighter colors to improve sun reflection, though of course our curious backyard birds proceeded to poop on it immediately, LOL! (Wiped it off before packing it back up). Have not tried it in the rain yet or overnight, just did a test setup in the backyard to make sure I knew how to set it up. It's super lightweight so the stakes are definitely needed, haven't tried the wind bungees yet. If you watch the reviews that show how to fold it it makes it a lot easier - the first step to fold it in gave me no trouble, but I did worry when folding in on itself the second time. Will update the review if I we ever go through the rain in it.

I've had a few of these tents over the years, this one is definitely large enough for 4 people comfortably, the front vestibule Is handy for muddy boots and clothes bags to save room in the tent. I've read it's not overly waterproof so I'll check it out, or spray a water proof coating on the tent to stop moisture entering. So far looks neat!
