Gear: The Ozark Trail Screenhouse

So I would put it in the group of 3-room tents. One mad idea often begets another, and that is how this $34.95 purchase came about. As I’ve mentioned elsewhere in the blog, I’m getting married in Joshua Tree on August 2nd, outdoors.

As you realize, the Ozark Trail tent offers far less area than the other two tents, but it has plus a screen room which you do not have in the other two tents. So please follow the links to read more. The poles attach to the tent through a combination of sleeves on ozark trail screen house the roof and clips, plus the usual pin-and-ring system at the base of the tent, see the picture below. Space-wise, the tent is with the declared 12-person capacity. The inner area is 168 ft² (15.6 m²) and this would imply that you have 14 ft² (1.3 m²) per person.

Make the most of your next family picnic or outdoor event with the Ozark Trail 10′ x 10′ Screen House. This spacious instant screen house sets up in 60 seconds, providing a quick relaxing retreat from the sun and bugs. Plus, it has two doors for easy access and a seven-foot center height. This canopy is constructed with heavy-duty polyester mesh and a steel frame to provide long-lasting use and durability. The steel frame comes pre-attached so that assembly is a breeze.

Greed, optimism, stinginess, and materialistic guilt thrashing together in a dance of futility that leads straight to the checkout counter? To make matters worse, sometimes I’m so ashamed of the purchase that I can’t even bring myself to return it. I have purchased outdoor sporting goods from Coleman and they not only have much better products, but they stand behind what they sell. As an extra added bonus this item will ship to you for FREE, or you may also be able to arrange for an in-store pick up as well.

I contacted Wal-Mart (1-800-WALMART) to see where I could get a replacement pole for the tent. They are idiots and seemed like they didn’t want to help me by supplying me with the manufacturer’s phone number. The product is currently Out-of-Stock. Enter your email address below and we will notify you as soon as the product is available.

The elbow elements which connect the roof poles and the legs are pre-attached to the tent so you cannot lose them, see one in the picture below. However, the setup time of this huge tent is some 20 minutes or so. It is much easier to set it up with a partner, this holds in particular for the fly because of the height of the tent. Seasons-wise & climate-wise, there is no doubt this is a summer camping tent and most suitable for warm weather camping.

Dozens of two-foot sections of pipe spilled onto the floor with stickers labeling them ‘1B’, ‘4’, or ‘2B’. Childhood memories of failures with Tinker Toys came flooding back. But, with determined hope, I began to wade through the instructions.
