This 3 season, 3 person tent will change the way you camp from now on. Its so fast and easy to setup it only takes 3 seconds. All you do is take it out of the carry bag unfold and snap up, thats it! Some features:*Bathtub tarp bottom that prevents flooding and splashing * Double window door and window* Gear loft and side mesh pockets* 2 boot pockets that you can access from the inside and out* Recycled fiberglass poles already attached to the central hub system For more info go to www.eldoradocamping.com

That tent will change the way I camp from now on - I'll be avoiding it in stores. Take a look at that tarp extending out from the front - it'll be a swimming pool or a slip-n-slide for sure. And I'll bet they're paying royalties to use that hub feature to the same company they're paying for using the clip system - Sierra Designs. In the larger color photos you can spot the use of cheap polyurethane fabric panels and poor zipper attachments. This would be excuseable in a $50 tent, but not at this $150-170 price point. I found this the best part:
"Eldorado Outdoor Products is committed...and sustainability by incorporating environmental consciousness...of every product"
This tent is made overseas, where a new coal-fired electric plant is built every few weeks. It requires more energy to recycle fiberglass than to produce it new, which is hardly promoting conservation. Good for a few laughs!

That sounds interesting, but I agree with tplife it will probably cause an accident.

I guess easy and fast doesn't necessarily mean 'safe'. Thanks tplife for your review. I found a site that sells a variety of quality tents at good prices. Hope it's useful for anyone looking to buy.
