Rated 5 out of 5Â by Tmbrcat Great value!
So my two cents:
I bought this tent for a backpacking trip. I haven't been backpacking in too many years to admit and only purchased this because the reports from the lake said LOTS of mosquitoes.
I read some of the reviews and yes the first time I set it up (on the backyard lawn) the poles where difficult to seat into the pockets. I collapsed the poles, inserted the ends into the pockets then forced the poles into the ferrules.
Second time was not an issue, as the tent had stretched enough.
I do think I’ll use a ground tarp for my trip and have a rain fly handy if needed.
My overall opinion is this is an awesome buy for the weight and cost and if you’re a hardcore backpacker you’d be looking for something else anyway.
When I’m done I’ll throw it in my kayak for overnight Yak trips.

Rated 4 out of 5Â by Reverenddel Good for a Bug Out Bag.
I got this for a Bug Out Bag/Light hike. Used it on a cold night, and it worked well.
The front entry setup takes some getting used to. And you might have to pull up the stakes when zipping close, and leaving one side open in the day... Otherwise, worked like a champ.

Rated 1 out of 5Â by MAG1797 Poor tent
This tent is worthless if you are expecting any type of moisture, even dew. Used this on a backpacking trip and just a small amount of dew soaked through the tent. Does not come with a rainfly, which should have been disclosed in the description, so a tarp is needed. The vestibule is not large enough to store any gear of size, boots is about it. It is easy to set up though.

Rated 2 out of 5Â by Likes2travel Very Disappointed
I purchased this tent to use for backpacking because of it's light weight 2.14 lbs., thats great. But the first time I set the tent up (today) I found out that the 2 tent poles that are used at the front of the tent are too long. You cannot get the poles to fit both in the top and bottom/outside pole pockets. They are approx. 1" to 1 1/4" too long. I figure out a quick and easy work around, but one should not have too do so.
I own 5 other tents and have tent camped for 40+ years and I have never bought a tent and encountered this situation. I am debating rather to return the tent or to keep it and use the work around while using this tent. VERY DISAPPOINTED. I expect better from Bass Pro Shop.

A:Â
There is no rainfly included, so unless you have a tarp or added protection overhead, you're probably going to get wet in the rain.
