Maybe I got a lemon based on the other reviews, but our experience with this tent was not good. First of all, when it started to rain and we put on the rain fly, it got very humid and uncomfortable inside, there’s no ventilation at all. Then, one of those cheap 50 cent pole clips that holds up the roof broke and the tent sagged and was not stable after that. There is no way to repair it other than to cut and re-sew the material. We staked it out anticipating winds, but sure enough it blew over twice and we had to get out and reset the tent. Fortunately it had stopped raining but still we got no sleep that night. I would not recommend this tent, sorry.
