5.0 out of 5 stars Great family tent, November 11, 2008

I have been extremely pleased with this tent. It is spacious enough for my family of four and is very easy to set up. My ten and seven-year olds can pitch this tent almost completely by themselves. Hooks for the poles is a vast improvement over running poles through slits. The connections for the rainflap are very easy to use. The inside is pretty spacious. The one loop for a lantern is good, but would have liked one or two more. The storage compartments inside are sufficient,and between them and the space created when you close the rain flap we had all our gear out of the elements. Given the size of the tent it is not overly heavy, although I could not fit this in my pack using the bag is comes in. Instead I connected it via some extra straps on my pack and it worked just fine. We have had no issues with any component of this tent and would recommend it to other campers.

I took this tent on a three month road trip across most of North America. It held up in the wind in the Grand Canyon (60mph that night!!), the hail at Yellowstone National Park, the rain in Denali National Park, the 106 degree weather in the Badlands and the freezing cold weather in the deserts of New Mexico. One night a little rain water seeped into the bottom of the tent, granted it was a torrential downpour and we were basically in a puddle...I got some sealant and sealed all of the seams of the tent and we also had to seal the seams on the back ventilation window located on the fly due to dripping. Other than that little bump and the occasional condensation (the tent doesn't breathe spectacularly) the Grand Mesa held it's own and comfortably fit a queen sized air mattress and two adults. The strange thing however is the footprint designed specifically for this tent seems a bit small. I'm sure there is a reason for this but it was a little tricky sometimes deciding to stake it and pull it taut or leave it as is.

I've never put another tent to the test in so many varying weather situations but this tent held its own and was a worthwhile investment.

I've only used this tent a few camping nights and it has yet to see rain. (lucky me), but I can say that it sets up faster than a smaller tent LL Bean tent that I still own and love. This tent is spacious. The vestibule is large. The door zipper hasn't gut caught in the any adjacent storm flap or tent material like has happened on other tents and even rain coats. The zipper is quieter than most. I would have liked to see a few hanging loops at the roof as it only has one, in the center.
