This All Products give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Not bad for the price paid!
I bought this because my husband and I were going backpacking and I didn't want to carry too much weight. I also didn't have much money to spend on a new tent. This tent weighs under 4 lbs. It's a tight fit for two adults, but manageable. I'm 5'7" so someone taller might find it too short.
I think my only complaint is that there was quite a bit of condensation on the inside by morning, so if you are sleeping right against the walls, you are going to get a little wet. I slept in my multi-use rain poncho, so it didn't bother me, but my hubby was cold.
It also comes with a bag, which is nice.
2. Not Bad, Not Good
The tent is alright for a quick little trip. It goes up fairly quickly and easily and has plenty of space for one person. If you're as tall as I am though, or anything over six foot, you may have to sleep diagonally in it to fully stretch out.
Unfortunately it does have a lot of downsides, but what would you expect from a tent at this price? First, and most baffling of all, is the little window on the back. It does indeed have a zip-down flap to cover it but this flap is located on the EXTERIOR. If, say, you want to close it in the middle of the night, you will have to go outside to do so.
The tent stakes it comes with are about as flimsy as cardboard, but it's easy to get better stakes. The out flaps that cover the doors only have nylon ties with which to tie them together. If you don't tie them in a perfect bow, they might slip and become your average knot and unless you are a rather small person, you won't be able to get out until you untie the knot which may...
