Great tent for the money. Some of theses reviewers are 2 hared on it. It's not some super awesome backpacking tent that's wut i use it for but like some others say stick a tarp on it. Those poles r not plastic the people who say so r dumb. This tent will with a tarp hold against rain and woopy dee do if your bag gets wet u can dry it in the sun in 1 day and u will still b comfortable if you're a real camper!.

"It's a good tent, and lives up to the description, but it is definitely not 5x6'. I'm 5'6 and only fit diagonally across the tent. Returned it to Walmart today. I only tested it indoors, but the rain fly also seemed small, as it only covered the very top of the tent."

"I have used this tent two years in a row for 3-4 night hikes on the Appalachian Trail and it performed extremely well for the price. Set-up and take down are very quick and easy.

My hiking companions with high-dollar tents were still struggling to get their tent gear out of their packs while mine was already set up."

"WE ran a test run inside before going camping with our scout troop. The floor does not really want to lay flat. Good thing. The pole broke on day two of use in the Living room.

This is obviously not even going to work as a toy. and there is no way that this is 6 feet long, I am 5 ft 7" and I had to lay corner to corner."

"I am a very serious hard-core backpacker and I got this tent on a whim because I needed a personal tent. This tent is extremely light and packs down very small in a convenient carry case that fits nicely in my backpack. It has survived a couple very intense backpacking trip one of which involved 5 inches of snow."

"THIS REVIEW IS FOR YOU IF YOU ARE:
1. carrying your own gear
2. sleeping alone in your tent
3. limited on cash
4. practical

I liked this tent so much, I bought a second one! I used the new one just this weekend, and even compared it side-by-side with my Coleman 3-pole 6" igloo tent, sleeping the first night in the bigger Coleman tent, and the second in the Ozark Trail junior tent."

"Well let's face it, it is a $20 dollar tent need I say more. It's very light weight and not very water proof so for its intended use it's not a good choice. I guess it would be ok for the kids on a backyard campout on a nice summer night if your kids are not too rough on the equipment."

"I got this tent for my son. He used it twice and a pole broke. I am disappointed in this product! My family are experienced campers and take pride in our gear. This tent was supposed to be a tent for my son in the backyard. So far it has been a disappointment to him!"

"I bought it to use inside b/c I was painting my room. It's awesome. The poles didn't break for me and I put it up but it was the wrong way so I redid it like times and the poles never broke. I am 4'11" and it fits me and a twin air bed. :)"

"Okay, so I was in Wal-Mart the other day and thought it might be kinda cool to buy a new tent. Yep, my Boy Scout troop will be hiking this weekend and I thought I'd treat myself to some new accommodations.

Which brings me to the Ozark Trail 2-Person Junior Dome Tent."

"I bought this tent because I figured I could fit into it. This is the most compact, useful tent ever. I can stow it away in my car and throw it up whenever I want. It is so small that it takes up almost no space in my car. It is also very light."

"Hmm well. I have only slept in it one night but I thought it was alright. I do admit the poles were very thin, but I don't think they would break if you are careful.

IT WAS VERY EASY TO SET UP. I set it up by myself in about three minutes. The rain fly is easily attached."

"I have owned this tent for at least three years now. I'm not sure that Wal-Mart makes it any longer.

It all started when I was waiting in Wal-Mart to get them to fix a flat tire. Due to store design, the camping section was next to the auto section."

"I was in a bind, my borrowed tent for my cross-county bicycle trip leaked the first time it rained. I was checking tents at Walmart. I was first attracted by the size and weight. I have to carry all my gear on a bicycle. Then the $20 price attracted me too, as I am on a budget."

"I wish I could give this 0 stars. I bought it as a toy for my kids and it broke the very first day we had it. As other reviewers said, the poles are plastic and are really flimsy -- just in normal use one of the poles broke in two different places. I am glad we were only in our backyard and not dependent on this as a shelter."

"DO NOT BUY THIS TENT!!! If it rains - you WILL be soaked. The first time I used it, it rained and the rain came through the walls of the tent which leaked down and completely soaked my sleeping bag. This tent is garbage and I wouldn't use it if it were given to me for free. Don't walk away from this tent - RUN!"

"I had a previous Junior Dome Tent that I liked well enough. . . but the current style is awful.

My older tent had, as advertised, a 5-by-6 foot square floor. As I'm 5'1", this was perfect for me. The traditional dome design worked fine. Unfortunately, I carelessly left this tent where insects ate holes in it."

"This tent is a toy--do NOT bring it on a serious trip!

Not only does it leak--in a high wind or two it will stretch the fabric--causing the material to lose its tension. You will not be able to tighten the walls as you cannot stretch the floor. This leaves you in a very bad poisition with the elements."
