From CampSaver.com:
"Big Agnes Big House 6 Tent - 6 Person, 3 Season"

From Ramsey Outdoor:
"Big House tents are the ultimate dwelling for four-six campers and all their gear. A straight forward floor plan means you'll be set up, cooking and putting the kids to bed while the guy next door fumbles with his multiple room big-box tent. Because there's no need to sacrifice comfort when weight isn't a concern, the Big House also features an optional, extra large accessory vestibule for more storage or a shady sitting room."

Bought this to start family camping with my wife and two boys (2 and 6 years-old). I made the investment upfront, because I knew I'd have the tent for a good 10 years, or more. So we'd need the space.

We fit a queen size Coleman air mattress and two Ridgerest pads with some room to spare for our bags.

This is a great tent. Me and my family have used it three times and it has been a good choice. Big Agnes has done a good job sealing all the seams because not a drop of water got inside. Good venting. Easy set up. Good in the wind if you stake it down correctly.
