Nice little shelter May 21, 2010
This is a nice little tent. The clips tend to break, however you can ask the Texsport people for replacements easy enough.
 Gets the job done May 17, 2010
Big enough for 2 people and their bags - but no more than that. Keeps you dry, has lots of windows which is nice. EASY to set up! But the quality is not stellar. Lots of little strings hanging from all the seams, which get caught on zippers and make in and out of the tent a pain - especially in the middle of the night! The mesh for the windows and door get pulled very easy, so it look cheap, although it hasn't ripped through yet. Used it twice so far, having gotten it as a gift for my boyfriend. As a gift, not great, should have spent a little more. To buy for myself would have been more adequate.

 Best Tent Buy on the Market! Jan 03, 2010
Just for a little background info, I've been an avid camper for more than fifty years, was a professional outfitter for nearly two decades, managed a camping store, worked a a guide in the Florida Keys and Everglades for a a total of more than twenty-five years and one of my college degrees is in parks and recreation management.
With all of that in mind, this is the single best deal in a three season family camping tent on the market; no exceptions.
It is not intended as a base camp for arctic explorers. For summer trips, however, and even for mild springtime and fall trips, this tent is easy to pack and even easier to set up.
The windows on all three sides and in the door, together with the skylight style roof vent keep you cool and the interior height of six feet allows you to stand up straight and stretch your legs. The rain fly is simple and easy to attach and doesn't block the view from any of the windows or door.
These features combine to make this tent equal to or better than many tents that sell for up to and over three hundred dollars.
While I always encourage people to do some comparison shopping before investing in camping gear, I'm sure that after having done so most people will come back to the TexSport 9' square dome unless they're simply put off by the camouflage motif.

Terrific Comfort in Terrible Weather Aug 11, 2009
I lived in this tent for the better part of three unseasonably cold and wet summer weeks in Maine. I stayed dry (for the most part) in spite of heavy rains lasting up to eight hours and one severe thunderstorm that lit up the tent's walls like a strobe light. I'll take the blame for any problems: the door was on the (slightly) uphill side, so some water dripped in through the bottom of the door zipper, but only after hours of continuous rain. During the thunderstorm, maybe a dozen drops blew in, not enough to wet the bottom of a shot glass. It was fine in the wind, but I would say that this is a three season tent.
The bug netting is fine, and for the price of one night in a motel, the tent owes me nothing. I outfitted it with boxsprings and a matress from a twin bed and a sturdy table/bench, leaving me plenty of room to stand and change clothes.
I love this tent!
