I have tried 2 others and returned them I tested this out in the driveway so keep in mind I can't completely tie it down. Windy day 16 mph winds and this thing is awesome. Set upmyself and very fast and simple. Side panel zips on easy. Most impressed with the quality of canopy shade polls, spikes, rope, suction copes and secured extra bracings that add an extra secured strap that easily hook anywhere. Quality A+. I chose not get tent polls, because i wanted green elephant ones for other thungs so sprang for those polls. But seriously, this is the best!!!

I had previously purchased the smaller version of the Ranch Fire Teepee Tent, for 2-4 people. Decided to go bigger, for a little more room. From my first impression set up, it's the same great quality. Solid stitching and reinforcements where needed. Zippers work smoothly and velcro added to the flaps, give extra protection from rain. Comes with decent tent stakes, which are always a plus. Not like the cheap ones, that a lot of tents come with. I also purchased the floor and screen tent for inside, to give it more versatility. (there were coupons for both , if you bought them separately) I can use this tent year round, with the add ons. They're not necessary in the winter or if you just want the fly as a shelter,but make a nice setup, if you buy them all. Love this one too!! Looking forward to taking it on our next adventure !!
