"We've had an older model of this tent for more than seven years now. At first we were quite impressed with its performance, and we do camp a lot. But, as time progressed, it has started to show its age rather quickly. Our main beef is with the poor quality zipper on the main door."

"I find Eureka tents to be the best family tents in the market. Their backpacking tents are also great value for the price. I am very happy with this tent since I bought it in 2003. I use it in my family camping trips all around the Northeast, TN, GA, VT, and I did a couple of trips to CO (Gunnison River and Crested Butte area)."

"Bought this tent probably 10 years ago (thus the higher price); used it once and then didn't use it again for another 10. After some really nasty weather last fall, realized I must have done my homework before all this info was available on the internet!

Everything said about the great ventilation is true, and that the windows can be left partially open during rain."

"I just bought this tent for 130. I am very keen on the four windows and large awnings over them by the fly. The fly concentrates flow of water to the corners, which could have better stitching. With careful seam sealing, this shouldn't be a major issue."

"Had this tent for 2 years. I use it as a 4-season tent by putting a plastic bag over the top vents in the dead of winter. Roomy, solid, well ventilated (but all windows can be shut if it's cold out). Fly is large enough to allow the windows to be open on rainy nights."
