Had purchased this tent to replace my aged 12-man tent that I used for so many years. I was attracted to the extra room both width, length and sunroom but I didn't imagine it to be so much bigger. The tent is made of good quality and easy to put up but recommend putting this up first to be familiar with the usual setup components if you have never used something this big. Love the hidden tie-down ropes. The quality carry bag it comes in is pretty handy also. large openings and plenty of ventilation and a high ceiling make this tent very comfortable. Recommend the under-floor mesh tarps for that extra protection.
