  • Well, never even got to use it. Set it up once when I got it last year to seal the seams. Set it up last week to check for leaks in the rain, so I could seal any before we went on the scout camp out. Well the camp out was called off. Before I got the tent down, a mild storm came through town. The tent was staked down pretty good, but this box/umbrella design isn't for storms and it was destroyed. Luckily it didn't put any holes in my homes or shed siding. It actually went into the neighbors yard where the steel poles were bent and wrapped into her chain link fence. Luckily not a scratch on her fence links or poles. You couldn't tell it was there. The damage was slits/cuts all over the bottom of the tent. Didn't check the walls as it was already destroyed. The fly was ripped and had holes in it. Obviously one bent pole. Looks like dome tents or other NON cabin tent design will handle wind as I've never had wind problems on the cheapest tent just water leaks. This was my last try at tenting. The domes or similar designs are just to small and aren't comfortable. The best canvas tents are just way to expensive for rare use of the tent. Stay away from cabin tents if you are NOT a fair weather camper. These tents can't handle wind at all!
