Leaks!!! Best to PASS!!!
Set it up for the first time knowing rain was in the forcast in the time we were to be camping, so i sprayed all the seems with Scotts Guard waterproof... a couple of days later the rain came early one morning, only rained moderately for about 45mins., the tent leaked all around the seem where the sides met the tub floor... luckily this was the only rain we had for the rest of the trip or the trip would of been a washout. It was also very windy and the fly top got pulled up by the stronger gusts, rain was being blown in on the top side too, just for some extra fun. Back it went!

    Easy Set Up Tent
    I love this tent. The easy set up and it really only takes 1-2 minutes! I love this, no more sweating and unfolding and running poles!!! This is exactly what I have been wanting, and that it was on sale and bundled with the 4 chairs...........couldn't be more happy. I immediately opened it and set it up. Then bought water repellent and sprayed it down and the chairs. Ready for camp-mode ;)

    Ozark Trail Realtree Xtra 8 Person Instant Tent
    Rating: Excellent Tent for the price! Tent Seasons, Setup, Size, Divider Curtain, People Count ======================================================== This is a 3 season tent - spring, summer and fall. I recommend you watch the video to learn how to setup. Quick Easy Setup - Recommend 2 people, you can bend the poles trying to do it by yourself. Takes less than 60 seconds with 2 people. Luv the headroom, my buddy is 6' 3" tall and could stand straight up. It is rated for 8 people but would be rather cramped. Could fit 8 people in sleeping bags and no gear. However, I recommend 2-5 people with gear. On my 1st use, There were 2 of us, each had a queen size air mattress, our gear and had space to spare. We did not use the divider curtain. The divider curtain attaches to top and sides in the middle of tent which separates into 2 rooms. It does not go all the way perfect to top, sides, and bottom which leaves a gap for those concerned with total privacy. Also, tent has a electrical cord slot. Ventilation, Windows, Zippers, Gear Organizers ================================================= Lots of mesh windows (5) for air circulation. Including vents at the top of tent and a small vent window in center of back wall close to the ground and works perfect for my $100 remote control air-conditioner which is ran by generator when dry camping in the woods for summer in South Louisiana. This small bottom vent window has no zipper to close, so I used industrial Velcro to keep it closed. The zippers are standard zippers meaning not heavy duty. So take your time when opening and closing zipped door/windows and it will last a long time. The door does not have a mesh screen, but the size and ample number of mesh windows make up for it. The door has in/out zipper pulls and zips/unzips from top down to bottom. Then another zipper is across the bottom instead of 1 zipper for entire door. Also, has 2 gear organizers / compartments to put your items such as flashlight, glasses, etc. within close reach and mount thru loops across the back wall of tent. No Leaking and here's how to keep it that way! ================================================= As I read about other people's comments of this tent leaking... We were in a heck of storm the 1st night with no leaks and it with-stood a wind storm. So stake out your tent and use guidelines. You have to proper seam seal your tent!!! Seam sealing is going to cover the sewing holes made by needles when tent material is sewn together. I have 12 tents and camp 120+ days a year. As soon as I get any new tent I seam-seal with seam tape around all the seams and then spray Scotchgard Outdoor Water Shield (Silicon) on the material. Put 1st coat on lightly and let dry 6-24 hours depending on amount of direct sun and how thick you sprayed it on) and get it out of the condensation of night until dry. I treated it outside then brought in for the night and setup in my gear-room to finish drying. Apply 2nd coat lightly the next day and dry as stated above. When applying Scotchgard, cover the mesh screen while spraying on material. I use painters tape and cut open a plastic garbage bag to cover or brown paper, etc. DO NOT SPRAY TENT AND FOLD IT AND PUT UP UNTIL IT IS DRIED!!! Another word of advice, At night, on the inside of any tent, if you have anything touching the side of tent (except canvas tents) it will normally have condensation accumulate around that area. Also, ALWAYS have an extra tarp that is the 1 to 2 times the size of your tent to cover in extreme foul weather or torn/ripped tent. Tent Material and Structure ================================================= Tent is made of good quality of Polyester and steel construction. But the steel construction is thin, so handle with care and it will last a long time. The Realtree and Tan color scheme is great! The rain fly is a mid-size. It covers the top and about 1 foot down the sides and attach to loops on each corner of tent. The bottom tub style floor is "about" 10mil thickness. The door-matt is made of same material a floor. Tent Bag ================================================= The bag is a tight fit and a little small when stowing tent away. The bag has 2 nylon straps for handles. To put tent in bag, close tent, spread and stuff tent material into center of each steel supports, or you'll never get it back in bag. I bought 4-3 foot nylon straps with buckles and 1-6 foot nylon strap. Put 2-3ft straps on folded tent to help keep it closed Then once tent is inside bag, use 2-3ft straps on each side of the nylon handles and tighten. Make sure buckles are on the side. Then put the 6-foot strap thru the 2-3ft straps to make a shoulder strap for ease of carrying it. I Did this on all my bigger tents, works great! Don't force the tent into the bag you will tear/rip tent or bag or both. Take your time and stuff into bag and it will last a long time. As I am putting tent in bag, I start with narrow end of tent 1st, begin zipping a little at a time with 1 hand while stuffing tent with other hand. Use your middle finger under zipper to guide zipper and keep material away from zipper. Use thumb and pointer finger to zip close. When I get to top, I use 1 of those nylon 3ft straps around outside of bag to add pressure to close while zipping. My 2 cents =========== I have tents of this same quality, material, but with fiber-glass support poles for over 15 years. So they do last, you just have to take care and clean your tent. Never put a wet or damp tent away...It will dry-rot, mildew, etc. and stink after time. I use a poly tarp and an 8oz thick canvas tarp to cover tent and use as a winter tent - the 4th season. I use a woodstove in 1 of my winter tents, I cut a 5" hole in top and sewed carbon fiber around the hole. Carbon fiber is burn resistant. Then I cut a 3ft hole in the floor in the shape of a U and sewed a zipper. I unzip the U shaped hole and peal it back to expose ground, and put my woodstove there and run the chimney stack out of top of tent thru carbon fiber hole.....at -40 outside it is always toasty inside! ...My Motto! Do more Camping !!!

    Easy to set up - but leaks
    First time opening, one of the poles was twisted and would not extend. My husband was able to take it apart and reassemble it so that it works however it does not slide smoothly. It rained the first time we used the tent and needless to say we had our own little lake inside the tent. I was going to exchange for another tent but decided to just seal the lower seams where the water was leaking in and then apply a silicone waterproof spray over the entire tent. I just hate the hassle of having to return things. The orange version of this tent is not constructed in the same manner and you probably wouldn't have the problem with water leaking around the lower perimeter seam.

    Ozark trail tent
    Large tent that sets up fast. I had it up and freestanding by myself with rain fly in just 5 min. Just watch YouTube vid and you see how easy it goes up. Got for our 3 person fam, 2 adults and a 3 yr old. I am 6ft and can walk through the tent standing anywhere. There will be plenty of rm for mattresses and gear, with area for play in case of rain. Haven't had in rain yet. Sprayed it with waterproofer just in case. Hope it performs as good as it looks.

    Loved it
    Talk of our Girl Scout camp out was last to start setting up and first done. Only addition is put nylon backpack strap in pack to wrap around tent. That made it easier to fit in the bag

    I love this tent!
    This is the easiest tent we have ever put up. My grandchildren loved the curtain that gave them their own room. The compartment holder was nice for glasses,flashlight etc. I also loved the camo design for blending in with nature...certainly not and eyesore out in the middle of nowhere. I highly recommend this tent for four or five people but not eight. For two or three you can store all your gear indoors with you if you need to keep it dry.

    Awesome tent
    Needed a new tent that was easy to set up and very roomy. Husband is 6'3" and wanted to be able to stand in it. This tent is larger than expected which isn't a bad thing. Plenty of room for us and the two kids. I was able to set it up and break it down by myself. Can't wait to try it out!
