I was never so disappointed in my life! I traveled two hours to Big South Fork State Park, finally got the tent up with no help from the "directions". It took four of us to figure it out. That wouldn't have been too bad except when the storm came. WET WET WET. Everything was wet or damp. Dripped on at night and the misting caused me to get an earache, which I never have any problems with.

Then the next day the really embarrassing icing on the cake. We had to put a large black plastic over the whole unit to stay dry. We were the talk of the camping area. I could not believe I bought a new tent and had to put up with this. My old tent lasted longer and never leaked until it got so old, which was explainable. I am going to send pictures to everyone I know. No one should have to seal a tent when they have to pay so much money for one. The concept was good, workman ship terrible.

I went to take it back and they only wanted to give me $99 for it, that is how much it dropped in 5 days. I will never buy another Northpole tent again, Coleman here I come. The public is going to love the great pictures when I get them online, proof is in the pudding!!!!!!!!!!

DON'T buy this TENT!!!!!!!!!
