This tent/screen is great! I cannot say enough good things about it. It is a breeze to set up and it keeps out the smallest insects. It was great for my trip to the tropics. I was able to sleep soundly at night without worrying about what was going to land or crawl on me.

Bottom Line:

I thought I would need this for a trip to India, but I didn't have to use it to keep mosquitos out because it was "winter" and there weren't any. However, it works well as a "tent." You can sleep under the stars without fear of any crawly creatures :). It repacks well, and isn't hard to set up. However, it was too long to fit IN my backpack, so I had to strap it to the bottom.

 
Good buy! Really works!

Pros:
Clear Instuctions, Easy To Pack, Effective, Simple To Use
Cons:
Color black absorbs heat
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

It's very handy, easy to unpack, set up and repack. Prevents even the small(est) insect from coming in. Only problem is that black absorbs heat. When you are in a humid place it really gets "very" hot. Never the less, it does what it was meant to do - keep bugs and mosquitoes away!
