This tent is fantastic! It’s about the size of a king-sized bed, offering plenty of space. We set it up and took a photo next to our king bed for comparison. The setup is quick and easy—only about 20 minutes for two people. While the tent is advertised to fit 2-3 adults, I’d say it comfortably accommodates three adults easily!! Four adults would be a bit cramped, but it’s ideal for a group of three. If one person is a child, you could fit four people. I highly recommend it for anyone needing that size! It’s such a nice tent. Can’t wait to try it out next weekend for camping!

I will definitely be telling everyone they grotta get smore of these Smore grotta pop-up camping tents (terrible joke sorry / couldn't help it). Seriously though if you are looking for an inexpensive instant / pop tent that is tremendously updated from the original type you should get this Smore grotta tent. Many years ago I owned one of the first pop tents, you know the ones that starred in a certain silverback gorilla movie. It was a fantastic idea but definitely wasn't so good when I got older as I no longer fit by myself let alone with a second person. This Smore tent however is the much more grown version, as now I fit comfortably along with my wife in this tent (I'm 6 foot 2 inches). This tent has 2 doors (1 on each end) along with 2 windows on both sides, the window coverings are only accessible from outside though unfortunately (my only complaint). The windows utilize 2 zippers on both sides along with 2 securement points when rolled up. To open or close the flap / covers you must be outside as there is no access from the inside, however this does add a bit more water resistancy. Set-up and takedown is literally instantaneous, you simply take the tent out of the bag and very carefully hold the tent as you remove the stretchy band. Then throw the tent away from you and others as it instantly pops open (be careful). Of course you do still have to stake it down as of the time of writing the technology of a self staking tent doesn't exist. This tent comes with 8 simple stakes and 4 (optional) guy lines, I say optional as these offer good structural support but are not required. The screen is very fine and prevents all insects including no see ums from reeking havoc on your camping trip. Moreover both doors and both windows have this very tiny screen mesh along with rain covers. This is a single layer tent (no external rain fly) this definitely reduces weight and setup time but does reduce the natural ventilation with the windows closed, so definitely open a window or at least allow some ventilation from one of the doors. However with all the rain flaps open this gets extremely good ventilation as all sides of the tent allow air to flow through no matter what direction the wind is blowing. There are also two pockets inside the tent on both sides to keep small items out of the way when you go to bed. This is very handy if you and your partner wear glasses as you both have a quickly accessible place to store them. In closing as I mentioned at the top of you want an instant lightweight tent get this one, this tent is comfortable even for taller people like myself. Moreover beyond this being a fantastic camping tent it's also a perfect auxiliary storage tent, this can allow instant weatherproof storage when you need temporary space in your car. I really appreciate you taking the time to read all of that, moreover I really hope this pops some answers to any questions you might have had. I also certainly hope that you are currently and continue to have an amazing day. -GhosT

Was looking for a canopy for outdoor gatherings that could be set up by one person. This comes with a spike for easy set up in sand but you can also place into an umbrella stand (not included but we have one). Opens up easily. I really like the side panel which is one reason for choosing this model. If you've ever been at the beach you know the shade your umbrella or canopy provides is not always directly over you. It's also great for visual privacy if setting up in a yard or deck/patio if you want to not be looking directly into a neighbor's yard. You can put the shade from the side panel where you want it based on time of day. It has Velcro on each side of the square so you can move it around. Sides are easily held down from wind by sand or even just full cans/water bottles. To plant the center stake you will need some depth of sand. If you are going to a beach without much you might want to bring along an umbrella stand. I will mention though, that the central spike is wide and you really need a 2 inch slot umbrella stand because smaller ones will not fit. This is a nice size for several people and if using for outdoor gatherings folds up nicely for storage. I wouldn't trust the handle to last long, it seems a bit strained. I'm probably going to use a ski strap (these wrap around the skis and are really solid) to carry this any distance with a strap. If the company wanted to improve this feature they could make a wrap around strap sewn in rather than a single strap sewn into the carrying case seam. This is a great option for backyard gatherings or a day at the beach.
