PORTAL 8 Person Tent for Camping, Family Tent with Screen Porch, Water Resistant Windproof Large Tent with Rainfly, Carry Bag for Outdoor Use, 6.3 ft Tall

We bought this tent for a week of vacation camping. The rainfly empties right into the back window. The material is tissue thin. The first evening a Small evening breeze, not a wind. Broke two of the fiberglass poles across the roof and ripped thru the fly and roof. Just redicuous and cheap, a straight copy of a better coleman tent

We were camping in southeast Texas in March and we had 15-40mph wind gusts. It held up very well with all the wind. I did have to re-stake several times but that is understandable in that kind of wind. Once I got good security from "liftoff" it did great. It makes a lot of noise but anyone who has been tent camping knows that's the price you pay.The rain fly stayed very secure in the wind and I didn't have to resecure that at all. I was concerned that rain would come in through the roof since it is completely mesh and the rainfly has an overhang off the side door which leaves the possibility of sideways rain blowing in. Surprisingly with the heavy wind, we got some rain with it and we didn't get any rain inside of the tent.We only got one tear in the floor but we were on some jagged rocky terrain. Overall good tent, good ventalation with three windows and completely mesh roof. Simple to put up if you have put up tents before. I'm not saying you can throw it up in two minutes but if you read the directions you could have it up in 10 minutes or less. Love the storage bag as well.Recommend to anyone looking for a large tent that you can stand up in and not walk around like the hunchback of Notre Dame. LOL. Now I am 5'8" and towards the back of the tent it does taper a little lower where you would have to hunch but I would say in the first six feet or so you have good standing height. I had several inches of headspace when standing.Oh, the only "down" side is if you don't stake down the main part of the tent where the "vestibule" is very well, coming in that door to the tent can be a major trip hazard. It's been a long time since we went tent camping but I don't remember having to step that high to get through the door. However, we both are very accident prone as well so could just be us.

My 11 year old son and I put this together. We haven’t used it yet so giving it a 5 star might be a little too soon. Only confusing part was which color pole went where!! I had to look it up online. (Poles are color coordinated) White in the front, gray in the middle, blue in the back. Anxious to go camping with it this weekend.Pole broke when we went camping. 😫

Love it but if there's heavy rain, you might want to pack a tarp as well. It rained for three days of our camping trip and unfortunately it started to leak at the seems. It wasn't much just a couple small puddles however you'd like to stay dry when you're inside your tent. We bought a waterproofing spray which hopefully helps for the next trip. Still a great tent though. Perfect size and we love the screened in area, it's perfect for nice nights that are a little too buggy. It fit two folding chairs and a small table comfortably. I would definitely buy this again

So far only used it once for teen daughter birthday sleepover. 6 tall teens in and out of tent all afternoon & night. Quite spacious and seems durable. Not much for wind and no rain so can’t comment on that but hopefully it’ll last us a long time with occasional use.I love how big the carry bag is - I can never refold the tents like they came and it’s always a struggle to get them to fit the carry bags - not with this tent. There is more room in the duffle for an improperly folded yet tightly rolled tent.Zippers seem to work easily and don’t get stuck.I was able to put the thing up almost by myself- I would have succeeded had I had the 4 initial ground stakes in correctly- I didn’t figure that out until after my neighbor helped me get the last part up, otherwise it kept sagging at the very end of assembly.I love how easy the instructions were to follow and the color coordinated poles and loops. I am not an experienced camper /tent person and the first time I assembled this it went up in less than 10 minutes and even more quickly when I set it up for the birthday party.Very satisfied with this tent.
