NOT A BATHTUB floor. SUPER easy to set up!

Cons: - not a true "bathtub floor" - can't comment on how waterproof yet - only 2 inbuilt mesh pockets for phone/glasses/keys etc (it is a 10 person tent) - e-port for the electric cable is located a feet above the ground (can be pros or cons, depending on your situation) - realistic comfy capacity: 4 (four) adult people. Not 10 of course. 10 dead bodies? yes. LOL Live people gear? No way. Pros: - SUPER EASY TO SET UP (compared to "tenaya lake"easy set up tent by coleman and a few more tents I own) One person can do it in a few minutes. - good price for the size - half of the tent has inner "blackout" curtain. Great for people who like to sleep in complete darkness, and those who travel with a portable A/C or electric heater (less hot/cold air escapes. - straight walls. tall. Even a very tall man can stand up. - two separate entrances.So if you camp in this tent with a friend, he/she can enter/exit without waking you up. Tent is divided by a curtain (zipper). Not see through. Complete privacy. Good if you travel with girl/boy kids.

Spacious and dark for the kids

This tent works perfect for how our family of 5 camps. 2 adults in the non dark room because we like to get up early, dark room for the kids so they actually sleep in a bit and get some rest after a long day camping. More than enough space, our queen air mattress only takes up half of one room. The 3 kids have enough room to roll around without rolling over each other.

Went cross country in this tent!

I have had this tent for two years and have camped in it with my family throughout the US. We visit numerous natioanl parks in the summer and this tent has made it so easy to set up camp. There is a middle divider that partitions the tent in two and the side that isnt blacked out can act as a enclosed porch if you dont have kids that need the added space. The side that is blacked out is great in the morning and keeps out the light but by afternoon, unless its opened, its a sauna. All together this tent has held up extremely well, considering I've hauled it across the country and set it up and broken it down approximatley 60 times.

Highly recommend

This tent is a game changer. I bought this for my partner and myself plus our four dogs, and it’s just enough space without being cramped. I don’t think I would recommend this for more than four people. Otherwise, the setup is extremely easy and really doesn’t even need a second person. The blackout tech is very effective. Overall, it’s very sturdy and a great product for a great price.

Durable Tent

We bought this tent roughly 2 + years ago and one of the best purchases. The easy up features make easy set up and tear down. The built in light is a saver as well. We have used this tent over 30 times and it has held up with no issues. Between my kids, dogs, and a couple storms, it has never disappointed! Now that my kids are getting older and we figured it is about time to get them their own tent we will definitely be buying another just for my husband and it. Can't wait for our next purchase our next upgraded tent from sams to the Member's Mark 12-Person Instant Cabin Tent with LED Lighting. This will give us all plenty enough room for a bed and a little living room for those rainy days. So needless to say this is a great purchase to take the family and friends we take camping.

One person set up

I bought this tent for more soace than our old one and does it deliver!! There is plenty of soace for our family of 6 to share comfortably with extra room for our gear! I also wanted to see if i could put it up by myself for when my son and i go camping because I know he wont help(hes little). I was able to put it all up myself including taking off the new packaging in just 6 minutes so im sure itll be even faster next time!

It's a winner!

So far, I'm very impressed with this tent. Aside from battling the wind, setup was super easy to do on my own. It held up perfectly in winds that were upwards of 20mph over multiple days. The large windows helped keep the tent bearable in the 90° weather. The light shield area fit my full size air mattress with room to spare. I did not test out the light shield capabilities due to the heat and wanting as much air flow as possible, but you can see from the interior photo how much darker that section is. I have yet to go through a rain storm with this tent which is why I've only rated the tent 4 stars for the time being, but if it holds up well without any leaks I will definitely up my rating to 5 stars.

Half dark, half light!

Note: only HALF of the tent is dark when the middle divider is closed. The other half does not have roof panels, only screen then the rain fly. It lets in lots of light. Half of your family will get the dark side and sleep in while the other half is up partying at dawn because they woke with sunrise. I’d recommend for a small family that would use the light half for a sunroom or screened area. The zipper also isn’t the greatest but works with patience. Only giving three stars as the entire tent is not made with the dark technology. Can’t complain about the price. Easy set up and break down. Happy camping!!

reply from Member's Mark Team

Thank you for your feedback, Erica. We're glad you found the tent easy to set up and a good value. We understand your concerns about the light exposure and zipper functionality. The Light Shield Technology is specifically designed for the bedroom area to help block out 90% of sunlight for a darker, cooler sleeping space. We appreciate you highlighting how this may affect different parts of the tent, and we’ll be sure to share your input with our product team for future improvements.

Does not meet expectations

Very disappointed with this tent. It only lasted one camping trip. It did not stand up in the small amount of wind we had. One of the legs broke. Liked the black out in half the tent. It made a difference in the Texas heat. Will not purchase again

Wouldn't buy again

While setting up for the first time at home I found a hole in the mesh celing and the tarp base had a cosmetic scrape. The tent is much smaller than I was expecting which is partially my fault for not reading the dementions, but we could barely fit 2 queen mattresses. Thats just 2 queens, not including any gear in the entire tent!
