Our last camping trip consisted of me (mom), 2 boys (13 &10) and one girl (8). Husband had to work and couldn't go. We went with family friends and arrived at our campsite at dark in the rain. Very frustruating experience. My two boys and I were able to assemble the tent and rain fly in about 30 min. It rained heavily all night. We were kept dry. Our friends tent leaked heavily. They were duct taping like crazy. I was very thankful that we spent the extra money on this tent, especially since I didn't have spouse on trip. Needless to say, it rained for 3 days straight. Not a leak in our tent. Would highly recommend. Easy up and down.

Easy set up. 40 minutes for two people. I use for a family of 4. Separate sleeping rooms are great and there is planty of room in the event of rainstorm to bring tables and chairs inside of tent. We used in in heavy downpors...no leaks, rainfly is great as is large vestibule. We also boght the footprint which helps keep floor dry.
