Also, one of the parts broke before using it one time. I have purchased outdoor sporting goods from Coleman and they not only have much better products, but they stand behind what they sell. This model has been discontinued and I only need two parts to fix it.
Keeps sun and bugs at bay which was my main reason for buying it. Seems harder to take down than to put up. The way the poles clip into hubs is a little hard to get apart. It seems like I am the second person to review this product, and the second one to give it a 1 Star rating. Goes together well, but as soon as we got a little shower…. Total collapse, hubs (2) shattered and two sets of poles completely destroyed.
Check the items delivery info at point of purchase. The is 13 feet long and nine feet wide, with a standing space that tops out at seven feet high. Wasn’t even able to get the tent set up in a mild wind before one of the corner plastic parts broke. I purchased my tent a couple of years ago, but time passed and just got it out to put it up.
The new types that go right up without connections are so much better. It was a nice size though and eventually got up with extra tape. My ONLY problem is that I lost the darn instructions, and don’t remember which pole goes where!

This is totaly wrong that a company doesn’t keep parts in stock. I was told to try and return it to the place I purchased it or wait the 4-6 weeks. Well I’m a camper and I intend to use this weekly. ozark trail canopy One mad idea often begets another, and that is how this $34.95 purchase came about. As I’ve mentioned elsewhere in the blog, I’m getting married in Joshua Tree on August 2nd, outdoors.
We are looking for these pieces if anyone wants to sell. We have a love-hate relationship with this screen tent. But, the slightest wind or rain and the whole thing comes down because of flimsy roof design. After multiple storms/fall downs, the screen portion has suffered some massive wounds. The rest of the process was funny too, with wimpy frizzy guylines, and inexplicable bits of plastic that are supposed to tighten them.
