I finally had a chance to use the tent....My family helped set it up for my camping trip... they're in a travel trailer and i joinedthem for hunting...Ten minutes later, it started to rain...I should mention that I bought a 19x23 tarp for the base.It rained, it poured, cloud burst, lightning, six hours straight.Not one leak. Stepping on the downhill side, there was a puddle that formed between the tarp and the flooring of the tent, but didn't penetrait... after a few more showers, and no leaks, I knew I bought the correct tent. Condensation was the only water I noticed. I love how roomy it is, and I'm usually a solo camper.As a retiree, I enjoyed the ease of set up, and tear down... I didn't need help setting it up, but having my family help on the first try was deeply appreciated.

This tent was a little tricky to put up at first. But after you figure out how to fully assemble the roof the rest is a breeze. I recommend adding the rain fly before extending the poles all the way out. The tent is really tall so it's a two-person job to do that with a tent fully set up. This comfortably would fit three adults or two adults and a couple of small children. With room for mattresses walk around and gear. The zippers were great. I love the bright orange. My only real complaint about this tent is that the room in the back does not have very good airflow even with the little window open, it was very hot so we just used it as storage and changing room and didn't actually sleep in that specific area. Also getting it back in the bag is kind of a chore. But this is still a hands down the best I've ever owned and I feel like it's an amazing purchase I hope it lasts me many many years.

Such a great tent for the money! I love the size and the fact that it has an extra room. This past weekend I took my toddler camping and he loved being able to have his own room, with his own air mattress! Set up speed was super fast and easy the take down was just as easy! It can be easily be set up by 2 in less than 5 mins! Can’t wait to use it again in a few more weeks! It rained a lot while we were camping, and there were 0 leaks and no issues with bugs getting in. Zippers were super easy, as well. No getting stuck. The tent looks great when it’s completely set up. Everyone kept calling it a hotel lol but I loved the size!

We are planning our first family camping trip with a toddler, so wanted something spacious and comfortable.This tent arrived within 2 days of ordering and we did a practice set up immediately. It was unbelievably easy! It took 2 of us about 20 minutes, but I think will be faster next time. It was just as easy to take down.Inside feels spacious and has great head room. We love being able to stand up straight (6'1) in the main section. It was also cold and windy when we did our practice set up and it shielded us well!We can't wait to use it for real!

I purchased this tent as a replacement to my 18 yr old Coleman Weathermaster tent. Our family has grown and we needed the extra room. I spent a lot of time considering simply purchasing the 10 person version of the Coleman but this Ozark Trail had the third small room which seemed like a nice fit for my two older kids. When I received the tent I set it up in our backyard to make sure everything worked and that I could set it up without any trouble. After decades of camping I know that Murphy's Law prevails. The tent went up okay and folded back into the bag okay but I was a little concerned that the integrated poles would become a weak link down the road as the hollow poles are made with very thin metal, and they have plastic joints.A week later we took the tent out on our first trip since having our one year old son. Upon arrival I started to set up the tent. Following the instructions I laid the tent out and unfolded the integrated poles etc. As we raised the tent one of the poles was slightly out of alignment and started to bend under the weight of the tent. We laid the tent back down and found a tear starting in the metal where the thin outer of the pole met the plastic joint. As I carefully put it back into alignment it broke completely, rendering the tent useless. My wife made the four hour trip to retrieve our old Weathermaster, and I kept the kids busy in our campsite. If you plan on camping more than once, I recommend a better brand with better quality components.
