From The North Face:
"A campsite palace, this tent will make other campers drool with appreciation for the lavish, roomy quarters. Constructed with pull-down privacy walls that create three separate rooms, the Trailhead 8 sleeps eight adults comfortably. Roughly the same size as a Manhattan studio, this tent s spacious doesn t distract from its sound structural construction and rugged durability you expect with The North Face products."

From Backcountry.com:
"The North Face Trailhead 8 Tent creates a home away from home in the wild outdoors. Spacious enough to comfortably sleep 8 people, this family camper is a lot easier on your wallet than that vacation home you've been dreaming of-but not much smaller. Fusion Pitch technology makes the Trailhead super quick and easy to set up, so you spend more time having fun. Prayer-bound floor seams increase user space with clean angles, and color-coded canopy and flysheet webbing makes setting up the fly a snap before the rain starts to fall. Dual doors reduce congestion from 8 people coming and going from the Trailhead 8. Rounding out a host of features is an internal pocketing system, a strengthening combination of pole clips and sleeves, two roll-down dividers to create three separate sleeping compartments, and an included stuff sack."

"Easy to set up. Easier with two people. Nice quality poles. Zippers work very well with no snags. Nice storage pockets for the things you need to keep track of: like Keys, wallet, and glasses.

Weight is fairly low for a tent this size. Another nice thing is that it fold back up nicely int the bag it came with."

"My family just came back from a weekend of camping. It was our first time setting it up and it took about 15 minutes in pouring rain.

The weather was cold and it rained for a lot of the time. We stayed dry the whole weekend and successfully stayed warm while the weather was around 4-5C at night with the help of a good heater."
