Revainrating 4 out of 5

Spacious tent; as advertised!

We have used this tent a few times this weekend and it is as advertised. Like others, I practiced opening and closing in my living room before we went to the beach. I'm so glad we did as it was very windy when I first took it off. A couple of notes: Before joining the two plastic pieces together (to form two circles), be sure to knock out the sand. I was driving myself crazy trying to push them together before realizing it was full of sand. Also, be sure to use sandbags. The first time (on a very windy day) we tied two ropes and put two in the pockets of the tent. The second day we did all four in the pockets of the tent as it wasn't that windy. I'm 5ft 9" and fit (stretched) great with a large 3 year old and 11 week old. My 6'7" husband didn't sit in it with us but he came in later and rested comfortably (knees bent) with the baby. While the tent definitely blows with the wind, it offers great shade, shelter and enough privacy, so I can breastfeed (even with a nursing cape) It met our needs very much!Photo from the back of the tent.
