Eureka Solitaire Tent 1-Person 3-Season

Item #ERK0094 | 4 in Stock
2 Star Rating

Poles too weak

By Ranked #111 - Tents July 8, 2008

I bought this tent because of the light weight, unfortunately the first weekend the poles snapped, and since I have repaired the poles several times, short of it is that I have probably spent more time fixing the poles on this tent than sleeping in it.

Mine came with curved aluminum poles. I'm not sure if they're still shipping it with the fibreglass poles anymore.
