I have used the tent two times. The first thing I did was waterproof it (as recommended) with a silicon product that I purchased at Sears. The tent housed two adults and four boy scouts. There appeared to be enough room for everyone in sleeping bags (the boys would have complained otherwise.) That night we had a terrible thunderstorm that poured. It was so windy and cold that it actually snapped some of the plastic stakes (I use metal now). It kept us perfectly dry. Although we were wearing everything we brought to keep warm (I assume because of the mesh roof/fly design).

The second time we camped by the shore with my wife, son and daughter. My wife felt cramped. The shape of the tent did not agree with the shape of the two queen sized air mattresses we brought along. It also stayed dry. There was some condensation dripping from the fly after four days. I made certain to air out the tent after that.
