It's not bad that I bought it in June, it's October and it's definitely bad stitching, if your kid is bigger they can use the tent definitely destroy as it can be seen from the inside and ties at the seam with the same tent fabric some of these ties were found incomplete and torn. My kid loved the damn thing, I got a pack of 400 balls that didn't fill the hole more than halfway, but it was more than enough. In general, I wish it had lasted longer, but in all the reviews, no one bragged about the quality, but for the price, it won't last well until December.
