Wow – a lot of people hate this tent. I may have made a mistake here – the one I’m referring to is the First-Up tent. It has a spring-loaded mechanism at the top that applies tension to the four armatures.

The first time I took it out was Feb 06. It was freaking cold and the wind was at 25 mph. We set it up and it withstood everything. The armatures did not bend or break. Even though it was meant for warm weather, we took the sides of the rainfly down and we were quite warm (the temp was 34f – now add the wind chill at 25 mph).

At the time I type this, my tent has been set up in my backyard for three months. I have not had to adjust it at all. You may be asking why it’s in my backyard = electricity. I sleep there at nights to conserve on my AC bill. I live in west Texas. In these months, this tent has withstood sandstorms, rain, and even hail. It is amazingly watertight. If I have entered into the wrong review for this tent, please let me know.

The only thing I can say bad about the tent are the Velcro straps that support the rainfly against the armatures of the tent. One of them separated from the rainfly.
