I am the most indecisive person alive and when I tell you I spent at least two months comparing tents on here before I chose this one.I was looking for a tent for bonnaroo and on Reddit everyone would mention how hot it is waking up in your tent every morning by 8am and how cold it can be going to bed at night. I don’t like that. This is a blackout tent and it really is amazingly dark. I personally feel like it did help regulate the temperature whilst the door was closed but as soon as I had that door open all the hot air kinda got trapped in the tent with the rain fly still on. As soon as the rain fly is taken off though it’s such an amazing amount of ventilation that even when it’s hot out you’re not unbearably hot in the tent.I’m also only one person and I like to try and do things on my own as much as possible as to not hassle other people lmao. The way this tent is the easiest thing ever to put up, take down, and put away is so helpful to me. I never thought it could be so easy to set up and take down but I do it just fine on my own. It takes me maybe five minutes for setup and the same for take down.Another thing I was really looking for in a tent was height. I really wanted to be able to stand up in the tent and change and be comfortable. I had my cot in there on one side, a small table and trash can, and still had plenty of space to throw all of my clothes all over the place and walk around without stepping on all of them (I need better organization for my clothes). This tent was more than enough space for one person.The very last night we were at bonnaroo there was a horrible thunderstorm, and my tent held up Amazingly. I did waterproof it before the festival, but the tent is already very water resistant in the first place, so, even if I didn’t waterproof it beforehand, I think it still would’ve held up very well.All in all amazing tent for what I got it for. It seems super durable compared to the tent my friends bought, is waay easier to put up and take down, even with only one person, and I definitely stayed cooler than the rest of my company in the morning.

I'm a very frequent mountain camper. This tent is the best I've ever had. Right out of the bag you can feel how great the quality of the tent is. Setting up is a breeze. I would say it filters closer to 98% of the dark. It was up for 2 days during a rain and wind storm, and there wasn't a single drop in the tent. Highly recommend this tent...it's amazing.

First, the tent is easy to assemble, took my husband and I just a couple seconds. The black out/rain guard is easy enough to put on, once you figure out which way it goes. The little canopy that is above the door is a bit difficult to get set up. No matter how I placed the poles, or tied the lines, it wouldn’t stay up. The tent itself was well insulated, tall inside, great size. The last downfall is the window design. The screen windows do not have zippers, but the blackout/rain guard does. So if you need some fresh air, you can’t open the blackout/ rain guard from the inside, you have to walk outside and open from outside to reveal the screen underneath. Very annoying when you get hot in the middle of the night and need some fresh air, but have to venture outside to open the windows for a breeze.

This is a great tent, used it for an event and had 70mph winds overnight with a lot of rain, had no holes or water inside and the tent was in perfect condition. This is a big tent that can hold two double cots comfortably. Setting this tent up is a breeze and I do it myself all the time.

I've used it about a month now and have been in three storms. The material and build quality is very good, the design is not. It's basically two tents in one with the full rainfly. Closed up it will not leak. The rainfly seams are taped, the inside shell no, they don't need to be. The floor quality is as good if not better than Ozark Trail and Coleman. They give you a floor patch, this company does not. I've had all three dark rests and I liked the Ozark Trail the best and this one second. The Ozark Trail with screen room is discontinued. :(Pros: Good material and workmanshipPotential to be 100% dry with front flap down and secured.Looks good.Zippers are smooth and seem a good quality. Time will tell.Cons: I hate the windows. You have to roll them up on the outside. If you fall asleep and it starts raining you have to get up and go outside in the rain and close them. There is no partially open for ventilation. Either 100% open or 100% closed. I prefer a tent they open down from the inside. The inner shell has a screen and the rainfly has a screen so you're looking through two screens which is odd. Its almost like looking through plastic. In a rainstorm and everything closed up you have zero ventilation. Good weather and everything open, great ventilation.The two poles for the front porch are already rusting.In a rainstorm with the porch open rain hit the inner door, rolled down and come through the zipper. I had 2 cups of water come inside. So in a heavy rainstorm lower the front porch flap.Two of the pole buttons are sticking. Played with it 15 minutes. Just push the button and force the pole in and it'll go.Tip: Some complained poles won't extend setting it up and they won't unless you know the trick. I unhook the two outer clips up top. The trick is to hold the center up as high as you can and the poles slide out easy. Down low it will not. Something to do with the design the material holds it back??So far I'm enjoying it. I think it would make a good winter tent since it closes up 100%.Taking it down and rolling it up is easy. Follow the directions included and no problem. The bag is plenty big enough, no fighting.

Easy to put together and very well built.The blackout worked so well we needed a flashlight during the day to find things.
