My son asked me to buy this for him. He isn’t really an outdoorsy person. So he uses it sometimes to sleep in my room. And sometimes to do sleepovers in the basement. Two people can fit in there, barely comfortably. But it’s probably better for just one. He was going to buy a play tent. But I told him to try this one. Because it’s more durable and about the same price as a plate if not less expensive.

I own this, a 2-year-old Coleman, and year-old Moon Lence pop-up tent. They work exactly the same way but have some noticeable differences.First, the 5-8 person capacity is overstated. I would consider 4-5 adults to be appropriate.Air flow: I have mixed feelings about the tents- Coleman has large, mesh openings at the top, allowing for heat to be whisked away and for you to have a nice view of the sky. The lower part of the tent however, has ZERO air flow and could result in high temperatures during hot days in California- EchoSmile and Moon Lence has large, mesh door openings at the front and back, allowing for a breeze to flow through (if tent is oriented correctly)-- Moon Lence's top mesh portion is not as large as Coleman's, allowing you to see less of the sky. Benefit of this is that it is likely better to hold in heat-- EchoSmile has NO mesh opening at the top, trapping in heat. It makes up for that with 2 vents near each of the two doorsPockets: Coleman has a large, mesh pocket to store items. The Moon Lence has a small one on each side. EchoSmile has a large and small on each, respective side.Rain: I feel that the Moon Lence, due to the front and back door being mesh all the way through, rain water could potentially enter the tent. However, a sprinkler test resulted in the tent staying surprisingly dry. Perhaps it wouldn't withstand a rainstorm, but these pop up tents aren't designed for that (or snow) anyway. EchoSmile held up well.Deployment: All three deploy quickly. Throw into the air and unfold. Stake the tent and guy lines down to secure against wind. Be sure to purchase a tarp that's slightly smaller than the tent floor to help keep water from pooling and most importantly: to keep any sharp objects from puncturing the tent floor.Packing away: Coleman and Moon Lence, due to them being 4-person tents, fold up the same way. Coleman has a nice video on YouTube to show how. The tent also has some pictures printed onto the carry case, though that's hard to follow. I use a modified technique from Coleman's that works very well. It involves putting the tent in-between your legs before folding the top part down and inward like a crashing wave. The Moon Lence does provide picture instructions with the tent itself.EchoSmile, on the other hand, was the most difficult to figure out on how to fold away. Its larger capacity requires it to be folded differently, and the demo video on Amazon did not show all the steps in detail. It is hard to describe, but you essentially fold the tent together, flatten it, twist it hexagonally, and flip one side over the other to the point where it feels like you are about to break the poles. It took some practice and it does make me wonder how long the poles will fare over time due to the force exerted during the folding process.As with all pop-up tents, they are not suitable for winter camping and heavy rains. They are just not built sturdy enough to withstand strong forces. They DO make up for in convenience with quick deployment and packing.Ultimately, it was a toss-up between the tents, and I decided to give the Coleman to my brother. The Moon Lence slightly won me over with the large, mesh doors for better cooling, though my brother said he felt comfortably fine in the Coleman. The EchoSmile is the only decent option I found for slightly more room than the other two tents. Rather than comfortably fitting 3 persons (Coleman and Moon Lence), the EchoSmile can easily fit four campers.

I’m not sure if they sent me the wrong tent or what BUT THIS TENT WAS TINY! The tent arrived the day we were supposed to go camping and I didn’t have time to set it up before and check it out which is my fault but it was what it was at that point. Set upWas very easy and things went well at first. I quickly realized this was barely a 2 man tent. I’m only 5’5” and this tent would have never fit 4 of me without lubricantion. The ad said it fit 2 full size mattresses but our one mattress was spilling out like a popped roll of pillsbury biscuits and was no longer able to zip. Luckily, I went with a girl and not a large man because there was only a few inch slit available for entry above the air mattress and it required a rebirth experience to get in. We slept completely exploded to the elements but did make new friends, like Herb the large hairy spider that shared my pillow. I want my money back but they are asking me to trouble shoot the problem……….

Bought the 4-6 man version.2 out of 5 stars. Had 3 people max inside the tent as I had a queen size mattress and a small twin size in. Fit nicely but a bit tight but fits.Lots of the stitching were coming off on the 1st day, not even til night time after a few going in and out. Even the little bag that the pegs come in had the stitches coming out as well which makes no sense for those to easily come out as it did.I have read the other review about it being not fully waterproof which didn't matter to be as I always put on a tarp when it rains. Stayed pretty dried throughout the storm. Had a tarp underneath my tent as always too. Ground wasn't wet when I woke up which was very nice. Again this could just be from me preping.The pegs were much thinner than my walmart brand which didn't end well as I easily bend 3 out of the 8 pegs while my walmart brand was still lasting quite nicely over 6 years.The way the window was design was kinda stupid. I have to go outside the tent in order to close the window or even to put the window part up which would annoy me the following morning as it started to heat up quick. It made no sense to design a window like this again compare to my walmart brand which the window was accessible inside the tent.**UPDATE*** 08/22/23**3 out of 5 starsJust got my refund, but they were nice enough to send me back a replacement as a gift. Which was pretty nice. I will be most likely holding onto this as a backup tent or giving it to my niece or nephew.I have yet to open and inspect this new one I just got. Hopefully the snitches look much better on this one then the last.Won't plan to open it anytime soon but will make an update on this review once I do.Still NOT the biggest fan of the window design and think it is still flaw. It needs to be updated and accessible from the inside then going outside just to close or open your window.I do wish they update the window design in the near future. I would be glad to make another review if they do.Updates soon to come....

I guess this pop-up tent is really not for me. Inside Amazon box the Echo Smile bag was torn and the snapped fiberglass pole was protruding 😭😭😭

Size wise in my opinion only a 2 man NOT a 4 man.. Myself my wife and children went in it couldn't get 4 sleeping bags in it. 3was a struggle

Nous l'avons utilisée pour la 1ère fois le 25 août et de fines gouttelettes traversaient la toile durant l'averse. C'était très décevant et désagréable car on veut dormir au sec. Tente facile à installer mais pas très grande même pour deux. Les pieux ne sont pas très rigides et ils plient lorsque l'on veut les installer.

Muy bonita, pero se ve que no durará mucho, las costuras ya comenzaron a abrirse al primer uso. Por lo demás excelente.
