We bought this tent for my daughter for her birthday when she turned 3 in July. It was easily her favorite gift. She and her little brother (not yet two) played with it all the time. Then, she wanted to start sleeping in it. Granted, the tent has been used quite a bit, however, it is breaking in several places. The mesh is tearing a bit, but the main thing is that the bottom pieces that hold the bars in place have given in, and the support bars just slide straight through. I have had to sew them, but they continue to work their way through. I think it is an excellent toy, but I would shop for one a little more durable.

Better than most similar products (same price and higher)we saw at ... other stores

Not a tent for outside use, other than play time, since the two side holes don't close and the top isn't water tight.

The tunnel by itself has been as much fun as the tent. We often have just the tunnel out for our toddler to play with.
The tent has found use in different parts of the house: living room, hallway intersection, bedroom - easy to flatten and move through house.

However, the light weight of the tent makes it too easy for the toddler to knock over (from inside), colapse, or drag around. No tears or breaks yet, but no tent this size is made for lots of rough play (jumping on, etc...) - but more durable than you'd should expect for this price.

Tunnel slides easily in and out of either round opening; adults fit easily through main door; good ventilation at top (keeps us from heating up inside).

The tunnel and tent also go on vacation with us - packing back into a small bag and a flat tunnel (about as much room in the suitcase as a pair of boots and a pair of jeans) - easy to set up in the hotel or at family's house.

I bought this product to entertain my 3 and 2 year olds after I found out I was pregnant with #3. We set it up in our master sitting room and they play in it every night while I lay in bed resting. It is a very durable and safe way of letting 2 or more kids burn off a lot of energy. I highly recommend this product to anyone with a few kids of varying ages. I am getting it for all my neices and nephews and I can't wait to see them enjoy it as much as my two kids have!

We purchased this tent for our 2 girls (ages 3, 1) at Christmas time and I just had to throw it out yesterday (7 months later)
It has gone through a lot of rough housing. My girls (and dog) loved it. The tent and tube are great. The only problem we had was with the 4 feet of the tent that you have to put the bars into to hold up the tent. If the girls were playing rough the bars would pop out and eventually 2 of the "holders" ripped and now the tent doesnt stand up perfectly and the reason I threw it out was because it was a bit dangerous for the bars to be sticking out while my kids ran in and out.

Overall it's a great tent. I guess we were just a bit rough on it. I can't wait to find another one.

We aslo bought the girls a kids "shadows and sounds" flashlight to go inside and they love to see the animal images and noises on the tent that the flash light would make. I think the flash light was fisher price??

We bought this for our son when he was only 1 1/2 and he has absolutly loved it. Now that he is 2 1/2, he has so much more fun with it. Sometimes we have more fun with just the tunnel. He has been able to really use his imagination with the tent. I would have to say that it is one of the best things we have ever bought for him. The tent is also very durable.

Santa brought this tent and tunnel for my son in 2003, and it was an immediate hit. He is now 3 years old, and still enjoys playing with it.

Last week, he took it to a fun day at school, where three classes of active kids gave it a try out. It stood up admirably, and went back into its storage bag proud and intact. It took a huge amount of abuse and shrugged it off. I was deeply impressed, because I never expected it to last this long. Several teachers and parents asked me where I got it from, so I guess they were also impressed.

It stores easily in the handy bag, and the tunnel when strapped up takes up little space. It's light, portable, affordable and fun.

One of the best toys I have ever purchased on Santa's behalf.

I bought this toy for my almost two-year old grand-daughter because she loves to climb under furniture with tableclothes and hide. She loves it and so does her almost five year old sister. Christmas day they climbed in and we were informed they were camping and didn't wish to be disturbed. I plan on getting some more tunnels to add to it soon.

My 3-year old, 1-year old and cat love the tent and tunnel. Everything folds down very neatly and doesn't take up a lot of room in the closet. We haven't had any problems with the poles breaking or fabric tearing as seen in previous reviews. Sturdy construction although getting the poles in the small pockets takes a little muscle. But it's worth it when I see my little ones having so much fun.

I operate an in home day care and have for 28 years. I had a Fisher Price cloth type material pop up play tent for 24 years, it broke before Christmas. I purchased this one with the tunnel. My day care kids love it...once I get it put up. You have to thread the poles thru like a real camping tent and it does not fold for storage, you have to take it a apart! It is not a quick, "want to play in the tent?" deal. I don't think with six preschoolers in and out it will last long either, and the noise of them crawling in the vinyl isn't good. I will use it as long at it lasts....but it sure isn't like my other one. I am not totally pleased with the convenience and ease of it, but once up the kids do have fun.

We bought this for our son when he was 2 years old. He just loves the whole thing!! The only problem we found is that we can't find where to buy more tent poles for this tent. One tent pole broke & we were not able to find any local store that has tent poles to fit this tent.
