Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2023
Minutes after getting the tent up, we had a 1 hr downpour with 20 mph winds followed by light drizzle all night. The tent looked strong & steady with just a few minor leaks around zipper, but all the seams were dry. Water did pool over the porch room (as others have also said) and began slowly leaking in, but I believe that's because I didn't fully secure the tarp down properly (see step 16 below). Haven't experience rain after we properly secured the tarp, but the tarp did look much more taut.
Overall, very happy with size, rain & wind protection. I liked that the circular room divider door completely protects the sleeping area from mesquites while coming in and out of the porch area all day and the dual zipper allows you to zip the bottom up so toddlers and pets can't escape and creepy crawlies can't crawl in to the sleeping area while allowing adults to easily step over for easy access to all rooms. It's also wide enough to fit an inflated queen size air mattress through.
Rear sleeping compartment easily fits 2 queen size airbeds with about 1-1/2ft clearance at top and bottom of mattresses for your bags. Porch room is decent size for 2 chairs with room to put your feet up and still have an unobstructed center aisle to walk through. The included stakes are crappy and I'm convinced would of pulled-out during our first stormy night so buy some good ones (need 20). I got the 7" spikes with the green tie down heads - very secure in grass and not overly difficult to pull out (Harbor Freight sells a packet of 6 spikes for $3).
These steps seem to work best for me:
1. Assemble poles.
2. Temporarily stake down 11'x16' ground tarp (sold separately - got mine at Harbor freight... good quality)
3. Unroll tent
4. Stake back 2 corners first, then back-middle.
5. Pull front taunt and center, then stake front 2 corners, then front-middle (i.e. entrance).
6. Now fold and tuck the ground cover tarp complete under the tent along the smaller front room section so rain doesn't collect under your tent (I may cut my tarp to size in the future).
7. Stake one side of the back room, then the other side.
8. Stake one side of the front room, then the other side.
9. Thread the 2 long thin poles through the back-room sleeves and secure the 2 poles together directly in their middles using a bowknot (the tricky part is keeping the bowknot directly in the middle of the thin poles when you mount them on the thick support poles).
10. Thread the shorter thin pole over the entrance.
11. Lay the thicker support poles near their mounting pin locations and mount the angled pole connector.
12. Have someone tall climb inside the tent and hold up the center where the 2 thin poles cross.
13. Quickly connect the 4 poles in the back room before installing the 2 poles in the front room. Install to top thin pole then tuck over the pin on the bottom.
14. Have someone help you pull the tarp over the tent.
15. Stake the guidelines in the back down first then the front, but keep them loose.
16. At each pole location, (a) hook the tarp in, (b) strap the Velcro around the pole and then (c) tie bowtie through the slotted opening on the black angled pole connector. Note, there's a Velcro strap over the center of the door (the first night, I was in a hurry to beat the rain and didn't see/do steps b & c and water pooled over the porch room and slowly soaked/dripped through).
17. Finally, evenly tighten the 5 guide wires.
18. Double check the stakes to ensure they didn't get pulled up.
We had not ever planned on camping in the rain (and consequently had not added additional waterproof protection), but we ended up camping in March with a nice spring thunderstorm... so our first use of the tent put it to the test! And yes, we knew it was coming but the grandkids were on spring break and did not want to cancel!
Our first night we had high winds (30+ mph gusts for hours coming off the lake) and a nice torrential downpour for a couple of hours. The tent held up great - no leaks and the tie-downs held without issue. The 2nd outing was in April in West Texas (Palo Duro Canyon) and again, the winds were very strong and sustained for hours - again, no issues with the tent (getting it set up in the wind was fun but we managed). Note: we did use our own larger, plastic stakes so I can't say for sure how the ones that come with the tent would have fared.
Something to be aware of: with so much mesh on the top, this tent will not be as warm as some tents might be even with the rain tarp on (the winds did make it worse for us). We live in Texas and weren't too concerned but both times we had temps in the 30's and it was very cold! We know that it's a tent and therefore not going to be WARM but we did have a 2nd tent set up for food and it was a little warmer than the Klondike. We actually like the mesh top because we usually have warmer/hot temperatures and want to see the stars.
We love how roomy the tent is - we comfortably slept 2 adults and 3 children (ages 10-15). The porch area allowed us space to put a lot of our stuff and keep the bedroom uncluttered. We bought tent flooring at Dick's Sporting Goods for the front room that kept the dirt contained and easy to clean at departure.
The tent was easy for us (2 adults) to put up and take down - neither of us would want to do it alone.

El armado realmente es fácil, una sola persona lo puede hacer, pero es mejor que sea entre dos. El tiempo de armado es de unos 15 minutos pero depende de la habilidad de cada persona.
Algo importante es que la tienda realmente se disfruta, pasamos mucho tiempo dentro de ella gracias a su altura y su parte frontal. Otras tiendas solo son para dormir y cambiar de ropa pero esta es para disfrutar de diversas actividades en su interior, incluso con amigos tomando un café jugando cartas entre otras actividades.
Recomiendo que se use con dos colchones dobles (matrimoniales) en la parte interna y dejar la parte frontal para sillas y una mesa, pero si colocan un colchón tendrán una habitación adicional.
