comment
" ...  When we took the tent down and removed the tent pole that inserts in the door it split in half and is no longer usable.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The door zipper was very hard to zip & was separated in places.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Door: the door opens only on the right side and only half way, so if you sleep on the opposite side, you have to crawl everything and everyone to the zipper, then crawl over everyone to get out and the same to get back in. ... The door is also difficult to close because there is tension in the top corner so you literally have to pull the door up towards the wall for the zipper to close. ... The floor space is severely limited by the door design, maybe that's why an equivalent dome tent would feel more roomy.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The rain fly is poorly designed for this tent to allow Rain to drop right on front door.  ...  "

Adults, who tend to use inflatable air mattresses or cots won’t be as happy.  ...  "
