I saw other use a tent for baby chickens and they said it cut down on dust. This small tent is perfect for us! I recently had a few chicks and 50 on order coming in the mail. This tent is large enough that the older two week ild chicks have plenty of room to run and try out their wings while the new babies can be inside with their own heat! I separated them inside the tent and there was just plenty of room yet it still fits in my spare/craft room with lots of extra space.

It's winter here so we can't exactly try this outside but I did set it up inside to see how the process was of setting it up, how it looked, and the process of taking it down. It's packed well and in a small space and in its own bag with a drawstring. The bag has quick instructions but if you've ever put up a tent it's pretty straight-forward, plus there are orange markers on one set of poles that correspond to the places on the beach tent where they go, and the other pole goes in the other attachment points. Pretty easy for one person, though with a wind I imagine it would need two. It goes up pretty fast and fits together well, again if there were wind I imagine this would be a few extra minutes and need another person. Each corner has a little pouch to heap sand into and there are metal stakes for the edges. To keep it in place and for real windy days there are ropes and stakes. We did not try these of course but they are your standard issue of plastic stakes and ropes. This looks to be well-made and durable.there is a floor space and an extended floor out the front, again you can stake this down. But you can also fold this up and there is a zip to make this a fully enclosed tiny tent. You can see it partially closed in one of my photos. It's maybe big enough for kids, dogs, and maybe a few adults if they are cozy but not big enough for an average guy to stretch out in, but for my wife it was. There are triangular side windows that can be zipped open, with screens in them. The back has a large half-circle of window that can be zipped open, again it has a screen. Even open I think it would block lots of sun, but not fully - and block wind also, probably significantly. The zipper track itself is plastic teeth but the zippers themselves are metal with inside and outside metal tabs for zipping it up and down from outside or inside. I assume this is the same weather-resistance as other tents - probably would keep any rain off you for a bit at least, maybe longer but this is a bit of a guess on my part. It seems like regular tent material. Inside there are a few storage pockets. So I would say I am pretty impressed with this, though the real test will be during the summer when it is used in the wind. We wanted it for shade for the dogs, which is what it will do quite nicely I am sure. And also to block the wind at the windy beaches we go to, which I think it will do also - we will be putting our beach chairs in front of it and not in it and I think this will be a good block for the wind. If this is what you are looking for then I think you will like this particular one.

Bought this for my windmill and it’s perfect. Good quality and holds it in place. Works very well even in 3 inches of sand.

I bought the black out version for camping rather than the beach, and it has worked great for 4 trips. It is incredibly easy to set up and take down solo. The black out shade is enough to drop the temp by 5 degrees when I checked, and the windows are spaced well for cracking to allow a breeze/airflow. I was a little worried about the bottom since this was advertised for sand and I would be using it on dirt/rocks, but even after multiple uses the bottom is solid with no rips or tears. I even dragged it around quite a bit each time while adjusting placement and shifting to follow the sun. I bought the 3-4 person, and it would fit that if you squish. Perfect size for 1-2 people if you would like a little space and to spread out. It does fit a single full size chair and person, though I am admittedly a bit short. If you want to fit more than one chair in this, you'd need to do the low chairs. The only downside is the stakes it came with, they were cheap plastic that didn't help when the wind picked up, but which is understandable for the price. I switched them out for some sturdier metal stakes without issue.

Hurricane Ida caught us in our last days of camping and this tarp managed to stand. One pole felt down in the night when the pin that was holding the rope for it was torn out by wind but it's because the ground got really really wet and just turned into the mud. 2 poles included in the package feel a little bit flimsy but they do the job. The tarp itself is well made and steady when it's assembled properly. 5 stars!

Amazing quality and value for the money. Just finished a 4 day trip in south Florida. With the sides rolled up I stayed super cool buttoned down it was absolutely water proof. I didn't have any issues with the tent stakes or the cords it came with. There's a small learning curve with this tent but I love how it uses several cords over one stake to cut down on what I need to pound into the ground. Using the hiking poles was amazing and really cut down on the weight

This tent was fantastic. Bought it for a week at the SCA Gulf Wars and was expecting rain so I was a little nervous. Setup was super easy and while we had 2 people to set up the tent, it could have definitely been done by one person. We laid down two 10x12 ft. tarps as a barrier for the tent floor so it would be less cold from the morning dew on the ground. Once those were down, we just rolled the tent out on top of the tarps and got to staking as per the instructions. The instructions are not in standard English so it might be a little confusing and the illustrations are so small, they are pretty much useless, but it wasn't hard to figure out how to get it set up. I will make a note, you need to pay attention to the center pole's direction. There is a clamp on one end of the pole that needs to be positioned closer to the ground and not the tent roof. This will make it to where you can actually use the vent at the top of the tent and release warm air! There's no mention of this in the instructions, so it's VERY important if you are going to be camping during the Spring and Summer. The first night we slept in the tent, there was a thunderstorm with moderate winds and rain. Not a drop leaked into the tent. No condensation, no leaking, and the tent didn't budge an inch. I doubled checked the tension straps in the morning and adjusted a few slack ones, and that was it. Nothing was damaged and everything was dry inside. It is quite warm on a sunny day in the tent, even with all the windows zipped down to let air in, so again, make sure you can use the roof vent! Morning dew beaded up on the outer fabric and was never a problem inside the tent. We did place a outdoor circular rug in the center, which made it much nicer than just stepping on the tent floor. Highly recommend doing that. It was large enough that the 6'2 person in our camp could stand up easily with no issues and we fit two queen sized cots, two 27 gallon heavy duty storage bins (the black and yellow ones), a mid sized cooler, a garment rack for hanging clothes, and two boot trays with plenty of room to spare. My ONLY complaint about this tent is the way the doors zip down instead of up. It made getting out of the tent a little tricky and we couldn't just leave the door unzipped for easier access, especially for those middle-of-the-night potty breaks. Other than that, it was worth every penny!!!

Says it's a multi person tent....you won't need another tent after you buy this.

I tried all kinds of anchors and drill attachments. In truth, all the rest of them were terrible. This anchor does what is promised, cuts through the clay and desert soil with ease, held my easy up tight through 35-40 mph winds. Don’t bother with anything else. I wasted hundreds on stuff that didn’t work. I do suggest a cordless impact or a 1/2” HD drill.

I’ve used it for one season in coastal and the mountains. It’s perfect for one person with room for your gear as well as two people and bigger sleeping pads with plenty of room. Great ventilation on the sides and the roof. The door is mesh out to the very large vestibule. Out of all my tents this is my most used.

This tent is great. Fits me, my two daughters, my boyfriend and a large dog very comfortably. BUT! I can tell this was used and returned. There was grass and dirt in the bottom. I know it’s not from us cuz I have it set up for the first time in my living room lol. So yea. Pretty disappointed about that

I assembled the tent indoors to get a sense of it (shown in my photos is the tent sitting atop a twin bed) and overall I'm impressed by the quality, though it seems you'll only want to be using this in a few specific scenarios. A ground tarp is included, which isn't mentioned in the instructions but is a great addition and is of notably thicker material. The main structure is mostly mesh (seen in second photo), so you'll have to use the "rain fly" to cover the entire structure if you want any sort of wind protection, heat retention, or privacy. This limits the versatility and use to fairly good weather conditions. The rainfly doesn't fully attach to the tent, allowing for good air flow underneath it and through the tent, which can be welcome in some conditions but again limits the range where this tent will apply. The interior is rather cramped, as one might expect for an efficient, lightweight travel single-person tent, but isn't horrible. Don't expect to sit upright without the tent material pressing on the sides of your head though. Of note, the design of the tent basically requires that it be staked down and tied up to nearby trunks or branches to attain its full proper shape and volume. This is understandable, if a bit disappointing. Basically, the included poles aren't enough to keep the tent fully formed and you'll need to use the included strings if you want the full experience. On the plus side, assembly is quite simple and easy to figure out. I managed to put it together in 5 minutes, despite not realizing the instructions are attached to the inside of the storage pouch! Overall, this is a respectable single-person, lightweight tent for the price. I haven't tried it out in the wild yet, and it doesn't appear to be especially heavy-duty, but I expect it will survive at least a handful of uses which makes it a decent value for the price. I'm a bit disappointed that it can't handle anything but the most accommodating weather, but then I suppose if the climate is the slightest bit cold you're unlikely to want to sleep solo anyway. It's also unfortunate that you have to use the ties and poles to get the full volume. Which again is reasonable for the sake of reducing weight and simplifying, but is another detail that makes me not quite willing to give a full 5 stars. Still, I doubt anyone will be disappointed with this tent. I plan to use it this summer, and will give an update to this review if that experience change anything.

I got this cabana side to put up on our new canopy but it's not quite large enough for one wall. But that's not the reason I dropped a star. I knew it wasn't going to go all the way across. It's the way it clips. My canopy poles are not exactly horizontal. They go at an angle. So the clip just slides down. I thought that I might be getting something with metal grommets that I could easily tie or zip tie. So I did get it up with many many zip ties tied together. It's very tacky that way but my husband and I are the only people who are going to really see it from the angle where you can see the zip ties. It's actually cute. I need some rocks to put in the bottom; they have pockets to hold it down. This may work for some people to take to the beach if you have something to clip it on, but if you don't maybe use some jute twine which is probably what I'll get instead of all these zip ties. It's up though and I have several extra feet of privacy now. I'll take that!

I took the Bike up into the hill country and wanted a small, compact lightweight tent. It is all of that. For the price, you definitely can't complain. Here's what happened though. It was unexpected cold, dropping to 30 degrees that night. Very unusual for this part of Texas. The tent is NOT designed to provide any protection from the cold, and it didn't. I didn't bring enough blankets. My 300lbs was trying to huddle under some towels, like that would work. Laying on my 1 blanket to keep from laying directly on the cold ground. The only way I could stretch out my 5'10" frame was to lay catty-corner and even then my feet were pressing into one corner and my head was touching the opposite corner. 2 grown humans in this tent? I don't think so. maybe as a dare. I'm sure two horny teens could make it work. Anywho, it was cramped for just me. getting dressed was not easy, since there wasn't enough room to crouch. But I knew about the space issue, so I expected all of that. Most tents greatly exaggerate how many people can fit in real life. All in all I'm really happy with it. it set up fast, by myself, and provided a sense of shelter through the night, even if all it did was cut the wind a bit. However, I will be replacing it with a slightly smaller, lighter, sturdier tent that provides a tiny bit more insulation from the cold.

It took me less than a minute to set this up the first time. Rain fly goes on easily as well and attaches on 4 corners with male/female clips. Large rear window. Front has a small vented window to let in some air if you have it all zipped up. All zippers are covered by flaps so I don’t anticipate any leaking. There are a couple of storage bags sewn in on the floor and a mesh hanging shelf that goes up too. Plus a hook for hanging a lamp. Best of all, the storage bag is plenty big enough so there was no struggle going back in after take down. I found this to be a very well thought out pop up tent design that maintained relatively light weight and compact size. It’s a great value for what you are getting and it appears to be made in Canada.
