Great unless it rains, then you lose the porch area.
While the actual interior space of this tent is large and comfortable (I am 510 and could stand up all the way, and our queen mattress fit with lots of room to spare), the porch area is useless in rain. We had to rig up tarps to try to keep the space even a little bit dry and that didnt work well enough. The drain holes on the sides of the porch area make for easy clearing of water, but why render 1/3 of the living space useless in wet weather? Why not extend or amend the fly so it covers that area and the user isnt scrambling to throw anything that isnt waterproof into the tent area? The tent stayed 100% bone dry during a 24-hour hard rain, which was great. Still, were thinking of returning it.
