Ranked #751 - Tents

Purchased 12' x 12' several months ago. Been to the desert and to soccer games. Pros: lightweight, compact packing Cons: main overhead shade panel is only 7'6" x 7'6" which does not provide enough shade, you have to purchase at least 1 side panel, 2 sides would be better. You have to stake it down, even the slightest wind will get it flying. Not easy to set up, it's awkward and I always ask my sons to help. So after $135 + $30 per side panel you can spend at least $165 for something that is very much a compromise.
