Instant Cabin Tents | Family Cabin Multi Room Pop Up Tents Car Camping | Included Storage Pockets for Camping Accessories

Did very well over the 4th of July weekend. It stormed quite a bit and I did not see a single leak. Is quite easy to assemble/disassemble once you get the hang of it after your first time putting it up/taking it down. It is a bit difficult to fit back in the bag, but that is a problem with all tents, and it does eventually go back in if you compress it well enough. Also, this thing is quite large and would realistically fit 2 queen and 1 full mattress. Screens also did well keeping bugs out, and the material seemed fairly durable against tearing, assuming you don't take something very sharp to it. I did not stake it down, and it was stable enough to withstand the storm, though I probably wouldn't recommend this. Only thing I wish it had was a covered front "porch" or awning that came farther over the entrance.

We are a large family (2 adults 5 kids) and needed a tent that could house us all now that our older two are in their teen years. Boy, did this tent deliver! I was a bit weary of the “instatent” aspect because I’ve camped in pole tents my entire life. Some of the reviews were concerning and gave me pause but I am grateful I gave it a chance. It took my husband and I twenty minutes to put it up the first time. We get faster each time we do it and continue to marvel how simple it is to both set and tear down this tent. We are down to about 5 minutes. As for people complaining about a tablespoon of rain getting into their tent….COME ON!! You’re in a tent! No tent is completely rain proof. We survived two thunderstorms that were quite violent (30 mph winds, thunder lightning, driving rain). We had to put the rainfly on in the dark because the rain wasn’t forecast therefore was a complete surprise. However, due to the simplicity of how you put it on and that we practiced putting it on, we had no problems getting it on. What we liked about the tent: * It’s huge! My husband is 6’3” and dome tents are a pain for him since he has to continually stoop. * The air vents are amazing for air flow. Even when it rained we stayed dry but we’re able to maintain adequate airflow so we didn’t get stifling hot with the windows closed. * The amount of windows in this tent is amazing. I especially love the screened ceiling. Star gazing is quite a thing in this tent. *Once you figure it out and practice set up and tear down are SO easy!!! One word of caution: MIND YOUR FINGERS!! My husband got his caught in the central hub the first time we tore this down and it got smashed pretty hard. * Other than the Tbsp of water that got in from the gap in the T door (which I think is an acceptable amount from a violent storm in a tent) we stayed bone dry! * I had concerns about the integrity of the structure due to the bed reviews I read. However, I can tell you that this tent will stand up to strong winds. This is a strong tent. What could be improved: *The front T door zipper is kind of a let down. Where the three zippers come together at the bottom leaves a gap (see pic). They did a nice job providing flaps that should cover the gap so water doesn’t get in (spoiler alert: it does but only about a tablespoon or so). However, the flap does nothing to address the issue of unwanted guests. This was blatantly obvious to me when we set it up at home before taking it out. During this trip, I sprayed it with bug spray which kind of worked (ants still got in). I am thinking about zip tying all three zippers together and finding some way of just sealing that hole permanently so it’s one giant window unless I can find another way to fix this. * The rainfly straps hook onto the pole under the green lock/collapse button. During the second thunderstorm, the wind pushed the strap around the rest on top of that button collapsing that pole mid storm. Perhaps putting that button on the underside of the pole is a more appropriate location? *This tent does come with what we call “flimsy ass stakes.” We bought beefier stakes for the tent as we found the extra cost saved us in energy and frustration. (Hint, use the cheap stakes for other things like staking your collapsible garbage can). *While putting the tent away and into its bag, one of the clips had a piece break off (see pic). It still clips and holds but, this is a new clip and shouldn’t be breaking like that already. Thumbs down! Since this was our first outing, I am somewhat limited in experience with this tent. I will add/edit this review as I used this tent further.

I bought this tent before we went on a camping vacation to Rapid City. The size of the tent is fantastic...there were four of us so we each had our own "end" of the tent since it can be divided into 3 sections with the partitions. We had a queen camp bed on one side and a queen inflatable mattress on the other side which left the center area open for storing supplies/totes, changing clothes, sitting in chairs, etc. The tent is tall enough to stand in comfortably and there are zip doors on both sides which is nice. We used a tarp underneath the tent to prevent any tears to the bottom and it also prevented moisture buildup under the tent so we could pack it up without concerns of getting the whole tent wet or molding. It was VERY easy to put up. You could probably do it with one person, if you had to, but it was very easy with two people. The tent poles extend and lock into place so a short person like me had no trouble. It is a large tent so it is heavy when it is in the bag but I could carry it by myself, with some effort. We usually have trouble stuffing our cheap tents back into their bags but this tent folds up easily and fit in the bag without hassle. We didn't have any rain so I can't comment on the weather proofing but we always use a rain repellent spray on the seams of our tents regardless. The tent seems to be well made...stitching looks well done. I think it will last a long time, with good care. I am very happy with this purchase!! We love having a big tent where we can bring chairs in to hang out if the weather is bad and we aren't all tripping over each other inside. Very roomy for 4 people.

We have only used this tent one time so far, but I am very happy with it. It's quite large (packed, and setup) so be aware of what you are getting yourself into. Setup is a breeze, seriously the easiest tent I've ever setup. It's quite roomy - we had a queen inflatable air mattress w/ headboard on one side, an inflatable couch that folds out into a bed on the other side, and a small table and our gear in the middle. Worked out great for us. The airflow was decent through the tent, even w/ the windows zipped shut it has some vents you steak open on either end that help keep some air moving. It has some other nice features like a pass-through for an extension cord to bring power inside and some nets and hooks available to hang things from the ceiling. We hung a recharable fan/light above the bed for some extra airflow that worked great. We will see how it holds up long-term, but initial quality seems good. Would recommend a large tarp/canvas to lay down below the tent to help protect the floor. 10/10 would buy again.

So far so good! We haven't had rainy weather yet, but the set up is amazingly simple. Helpful hint: Take it for a dry run before you go on your trip. There is quite a bit of cardboard and packaging that has to be removed as you unpack it. Still, we managed to unpack it and get it set up for the first time after a late night arrival. The second time we used it, the setup actually does only take a few minutes. This is by far worth the purchase. The flexible tent poles were a big improvement from the old metal poles years ago, but this is another leap in tenting convenience. Take down is a little slower due to folding and packing, but still a big improvement. The space is significant inside, and at 6'-2", I can stand comfortably even near the edges. We used a queen air mattress at one end with one child in a sleeping bag next to us. The other two kids slept at the other end, and there was still a ton of space between us, even with all of our stuff. Overall it's worth the purchase, and we look forward to using it more! Edit: 3.5 years of occasional use. Still can't beat the size and convenience of this thing. We put a queen air mattress on one side and three kids on the other side with still about 6ft clear between in the middle. It's just plain huge. We did have it out in a heavy rain storm last year, and the rain fly did not hold water as well as hoped (at that point, 3 years old). I suspect this is from normal wear, but I do expect better longevity, thus dropping to 4 stars. I think we've used it around 6-8 times.
