It kept anyone out of the sun who chose to be that day. It was nice having some refuge when you wanted it. Whether you were just hot, or starting to sun burn, it definitely served it’s purpose. We did take it to the beach on a day that had a little wind.
It has plenty of sleeping space and storage space as well. When the thing finally wore out I thought I would spring for something with a little bit more room. I got a 16′ x 10.5′ family Dome tent by Ozark Trail. The thing was fairly complex and that it was kind of mediocre, my main complaint is, unlike my Hillary it was absolutely not waterproof at all. It seemed like the rain came right through the top and formed a large puddles on the tent floor. I had a Hillary tent that I had brought from Sears.
Overall it was worth the price and a good product. It rained about every other day, and after the first night there were puddles on both ends of the tent. The windows leaked big time and the rainfly pole over the door kept falling over, soaking the front of the tent. If you take your tailgate essentials seriously ozark trail sleeping bag (as most fans do), there are tons ozark trail backpack of products on the market to help make your setup supreme. You can stow this featherlight, compressible chair in a backpack or even a work bag. The good news is that there are options available, and the Ozark Trail XXL Director Chair is a great option.
The people who make your zippers should quit and get another profession. Your zippers are the worst in all camping gears I have bought. We put a small table and cooking supplies under the sun shade and this worked out nicely. Overall, I started out the trip happy with my purchase. The sun shield was a success considering the $50 price point.
This would be great for anyone that plans to sit down in the shelter. It performed admirably at first, being easy to set up and re-stow in the provided ruck-sack. The gear storage sacks are situated on opposite corners of the room. During set up one of the guys stepped on one of the poles breaking it. During the night some of the snow broke the other pole (both were in the section at the very end). As with any tent you need to glue the seams to prevent leaks.
I’m going to Coleman for now on because you are incapable of making a zipper that doesn’t break so damn easy on the door. Stay in the loop with the latest offers, special sales, and the newest Walmart promo code by signing up for the mailing list. Good news, recently Walmart launched the Walmart Rewards where Walmart+ members can earn points for every qualified purchase. Nevertheless, it still comfortably accommodates four people, and it’s a roomy choice for two.
I also sealed the two floor seams with a seam sealant. The fly sheet has taped seams, but none of the inner seams are taped. It has survived some heavy downpours with no leaks. I bought this tent for light summer use because it was cheap and big ozark trail sleeping bag enough to stand up in. Wal-mart does not sell this tent in the U.K., however another supermarket Tesco does, but not as an ‘Ozark Trail’. I found these reviews only after having bought the tent, so I was expecting trouble right from the start.
