CORE 9 PERSON LIGHTED INSTANT CABIN TENT 14' x 9'

We left it near the beach with all our stuffs inside due to sudden heavy rain, lightning and strong wind….next day we found it upside down however we brought it back and after Clenaing it was ready again for next camping. Great quality & comfort.

Great product?

This tent is so awesome, it sets up and down so easily following the directions. With two of us, we had it completely set up in 20 minutes easily. The lights have 3 settings and easily light up the entire tent. There is ample room in it and we could stand up straight, so no constant bending over inside!! Air vents on the bottom allow good air flow, even with the windows shut, but I loved how there are windows on every side to keep it cooler during the day, the air circulates so well inside! Loved the screened top, covered with the rain guard, that allows for even more air circulation. We didn't use the room divider this trip, but I have a feeling it will come in handy at some point! I was just so impressed with every little detail that went into this tent and the built-in lights made us feel much safer than having a lantern inside with a flame! Even my in-laws were impressed with how quick it went up and came down, and how roomy it was inside!! If I could give this tent 10 stars, I would because it is that awesome!!

Great tent, with two caveats. 1. The tent we received had a rip at the bottom seam at the back of the tent, where it connects with the floor. It appeared to be a manufacturing defect, as we ordered it new from Amazon. Credit to CORE, though; they provide a support number, which was actually answered very quickly by a pleasant and helpful support person. We're sending in the receipt and order information; hopefully they'll replace the tent. My hopes are high. I'll update if they don't. 2. When it says "water-resistant," that's exactly what it means. Our first Boy Scout campout with this tent was a disaster, through no fault of Core. No rain, but in the middle of the night the sprinkler system at the park went off. To be fair, the rain fly was enough for the sprinkler head that was further away where the water landed on the roof; but I don't think there's a tent short of a professional expedition tent that could survive a sprinkler from 3 feet away spewing its entire force directly at the back wall of the tent. Water seeped/sprayed through (at the zipper especially, even though the window was closed). To be clear, I do not fault CORE for this, just thought folks should know. As for the rest, it does take a little bit of figuring out to set it up the first time, and it's easier to take it down with two people, but it's very easy overall.

I set it up by myself in about 15 mins, which included the rainfly and stakes. Extending the legs is a little tricky by yourself and you can twist them so don't force it. Once set up, it's very comfy and sturdy. Wish it had a port for a portable AC hose. It just has a tiny port for an electrical cord. My family loved the adjustable light and on/off/dimmer switch both inside and out. It's roomy enough for 2 queen blowup beds with a little room for a small table or chair. Well made.

Great tent with plenty of space. Set up and tear down was so simple and fast. Got heavy rain one night and we had no water inside tent.

Brand new tent over $400 with the footprint and can not even set it up. They sold it with a manufacturer defect of one leg backwards. Also the tent stakes are missing! Edit: We returned the original received. Amazon was amazing and Core offered to stand behind their product as well. We received a refund for the tent with the defect. We immediately purchased a new one to fit the footprint we had already purchased and the replacement we have used a couple times and love it so far.
