 1ST TIME CAMPING WOW!!!!Sep 03, 2010
I never write reviews but I felt compelled to do so about this tent. The wife & I went to Vermont last weekend. This tent was easy to set up only took about 15 minutes and that was our 1st time ever pitching a tent. The tent itself is made very well, I could tell compared to dome of the other peoples tent ours looked much better not only in design but quality. The windows on all 4 sides allowed for great ventilation and you can zip them up if you get cold. It rained one night and the inside was as dry as the desert. No need for seam fix or anything like that. We had a queen size air mattress on one side and there was still plenty of room for another couple on the other side of tent. Overall I'm very happy with this tent and was glad I did some research 1st and it paid off.. Thanks Eureka!!!
Perfect tentAug 17, 2010
This tent is perfect. Well-made, easy to set up, excellent ventilation. Not much more to add.
Four Days Use, SatisfiedMay 07, 2010
I bought this to replace a 19-year-old pop-up dome, and am pleased with its size, neatness of construction and ventilation. I tried out the little vent below the door and found it effective. The gear loft and hanging shelves were handy for keeping gear straight. The rain fly was a little tough to put up alone with a breeze blowing, but I prevailed. In fact, I had practiced once at home before leaving for Merlefest (bluegrass, baby!) to set up for real. The main tent poles are very sturdy and amazingly long. I had a 4-layer super-thick tarp groundcloth under it, so when I had to step on the tent to work the poles through the sleeves, which seems unavoidable, there was no harm. The little ringed posts at each corner to insert in the poles would be better if they were two inches longer, as it would be easier to keep the pole on them during set-up. It was actually harder to get them out when taking the tent down, so maybe they are best as they are. The zippers and screens for the windows were well-done and effective. I had days from 70 to 90 degrees and nights from 45 to 60 and was always comfortable. The large windows and vented top seem well-protected by the fly, and I had no condensation or "funkiness". The fasteners for the stakes were sturdy and held when pulled tight. Plastic stakes were included, but I had my own metal ones, so I cannot comment on the effectiveness or sturdiness of the yellow plastic ones. The instructions were clear and the tent folded neatly back into its bag. I'm happy with it, since I like the space for a chair and table as well as my cot. I even had room to set up a second cot to hold my wide-open suitcase and a large shoe bag. It is rated as a six-person tent, but I can't imagine more than three people having room for sleeping, luggage and equipment, since as you can tell I like a living room at the campground. It weighs 23 pounds, so it is strictly a car camping item, I'd think.
This tent is great!Sep 16, 2009
I purchased this tent back in February after reading many reviews and doing a lot of research. I wanted a tent for occasional car camping with my wife and 2 kids. This is a nice size tent. It is very tall - 7 feet in the center. It might be crowded with four adults, though. It is super easy to put up. You could probably do it with one person, but it would be a bit awkward. I can't tell you whether it leaks or not since it hasn't rained when we've been in it. It wouldn't matter anyway - we'd head to a motel. The tent is very high quality - no flaws or pieces missing. It is well constructed. When you're done, the tent rolls up easily and goes back in the bag with the poles and everything - no problem.

 It LeaksJul 22, 2009
After a lot of research, I decided on this tent because of the many favorable reviews I saw and Eureka's reputation for good tents. I am now tent shopping again (this one is two weeks old and has not gone on a single camping trip yet)...
Simply put: where the floor of the tent (the bottom dark blue) meets the wall (the light blue part) - this is a "bathtub floor" as Eureka and other reviewers refer to it. Nice because there is no ground level seam to leak during rain. But - it does leave a nice horizontal seam all the way around the tent (where the light and dark blue meet) that is not covered by the fly and IS NOT factory sealed.
We sealed the seams of this tent twice with three tubes of McNett. It rained - the floor of the tent was wet.
In spending a substantial amount of time on the phone with Eureka today, they apparently feel it is the job of a $6 tube of McNett to make sure you stay dry, not the job of a $250+ tent. I would have thought the seam sealing was a secondary safeguard, not a mandatory requirement - apparently Eureka is banking their reputation on a 3rd party rather than choosing to provide a quality product. We have always had REI tents until now, never sealed any of them and have always stayed dry. Will never buy another Eureka - they simply do not stand behind their product.
