Here's what other sites are saying:

From Campmor:
"The Green River 4 sleeps 4 people and provides a small screened vestibule for shelter from the bugs and rain. The front screenroom is 9 ft. x 5 ft. 10 in. and has room to keep gear or chairs. Set up is easy and quick with Kelty's clip/sleeve construction. The durable polyester rainfly stops water, resists UV damage and won't stretch when wet. The shockcorded fiberglass frame is economical and reliable. Main fly and floor seams are factory taped for extreme weather protection. Arc Edge floor seams - perimeter floor seams are off the ground and inverted for superior water protection. Freestanding Large screened vestibule (9 ft. x 5 ft. 10 in.) for gear or chairs. Vestibule windows have waterproof covers on the inside for complete weather protection. Screened vestibule does not have a floor. Shockcorded fiberglass poles for easy set up and convenience.

From Backcountry.com:
"Keep the bugs at bay while you lounge in the screened-in vestibule of the Kelty Green River, 4-Person, 3-Season Tent. Car camping doesn't get any better than this. The tent has a simple four pole construction so it's easy to put up and sturdy in wind. Its floor seams are taped to keep you dry in the rain and internal storage pockets can hold your playing cards and poker chips. With room to comfortably sleep four you can crash out in style."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Great for family camping and fishing trips, Kelty's Green River 4 tent offers plenty of room in a freestanding design with extra space in a roomy vestibule. If your family and friends tend to tote extra gear, the Green River has the additional space that you need to keep it all covered and out of the rain--we're talking about a little over half the living space you'll find beyond the noiseless zipper pulls leading inside the tent. The layout inside the tent is squared off with Kelty's ArcEdge floor and taped seams. The mesh ceiling panels offer excellent ventilation, but not to the same degree as the Gunnison and Trail Dome tents, although the extra fabric coverage still doesn't make the Green River 4 a four season tent, it is probably better suited for the more extreme sides of three season camping. Internal side pockets give occupants plenty of places to stow small essentials while keeping the main floor area clear of everything except sleeping bags. Keep in mind that the Green River 4 only has a single (but very large) door. This is a critical consideration for campers who need access to the outdoors in the middle of the night and early morning anglers who don't want to disturb sleeping companions."

From REI:
"This camping tent with fiberglass poles provides comfort and convenience with a roomy screened vestibule for escaping the bugs. Freestanding design features one door with one vestibule, and quick setup with a combination of pole clips and sleeves. ArcEdge™ floor remains taut with specially constructed waterproof seams that are up off the ground. Nylon taffeta walls are watertight and tent features side-wall mesh vents and ceiling for good ventilation. Polyester rainfly won't sag when wet; adjustable quick-release buckle and webbing attach rainfly to tent. Rainfly features taped seams, vents, noiseless zipper pulls and guyout points. Mesh vestibule has pull-down shades for privacy. Internal storage pockets help keep inside of tent organized; ceiling loops allow attachment of gear loft (sold separately). Comes with stakes, guylines and stuff sacks. Average minimum weight specification is based on tent, rainfly and poles only."

Reviewed by Mike Gould, Jan 15, 2007

"My wife and I bought this tent last summer and ended up using it three times. And while the sleeping area did an excellent job keeping us dry during one bad rain storm, we were still disappointed overall. Perhaps because we never were able to see one displayed and didn't foresee what my wife and I consider shortcomings."
