Eureka Tetragon 5 Adventure 7-Foot by 5-Foot Two-Person Tent

What was promised was delivered. I have used it several times with no problems at all.

This is a very nice tent for one person. You will need to buy a tarp to put down as the floor is not reinforced as other tents that I have owned.

The Eureka Tetragon 5 two person tent is better than we expected. It was purchased as a gift for my son who is a Boy Scout. A couple of other boys in his troop have this tent, as well as the Scoutmaster's grandson, and they all recommended it. It is even larger than I expected, and perfect for a growing boy (or even me). Two can sleep in it as well. The hanging pockets are great for organizing and keeping up with important items. The fly hangs over the door very well and gives a bit of storage space on the outside. The boys in my son's troop backpack with these tents. Now, we live in Texas, so we have not tested it in freezing temps, but it works very well here. Happy camping!

I have now received three of these tents (Bought them for Christmas presents) and slept out in two of them on a 40 degree and a 20 degree night. The length is just enough for me at 6'4". The width is enough for two people and room to store some gear. I like the flexibility of the two small mesh pockets, one at each end which can be easily removed and relocated. I also like the pocketed gear loft which can hang down to use the pockets or be hooked to the roof to serve as a loft. I didn't sleep in the tent in bad weather (our rainy season has turned to snow, anyway) but have treated the tents with a repellent ($5/can - about 1 can/tent at Walmart). I think the staking at each corner and on the front ends of the fly, and on the tie down loops at each corner of the fly will hold this tent down but larger stakes than the included wire stakes may be necessary. I also bought this tent because the weight is just five pounds and you can split it between two hikers. I'm happy with it.

I chose this tent because I was downsizing from a much larger Eureka tent that I had used for years, but was too big for one person. This tent is the perfect size for one, but it would be very tight with two. It is very easy to set up, it literally goes up in minutes. I think it's great for summer camping, because of all the screen. The nights were in the 40's when I used it, and I would not use it in any colder temps, but that's just me. The only minus I give it has to do with the wonderful big screen "windows" that come all the way to the "bathtub" bottom: on my second night out, a thick ground fog came in off the lake. The moisture got everywhere, including onto my sleeping bag. It went right under the sides of the rain fly and into the tent. I had to dry everything out when I got home. I feel this would not have happened if the screen did not come so low to the ground. When packed into its carry bag, it is the size of my yoga mat. Just throw it in the car and go! There are 2 side storage pockets, plus a hammock style multi pocket that hangs overhead, so you can keep all sorts of little things handy. I kept my fleece dry that foggy night by laying it on the overhead pocket. I trust the Eureka brand and am looking forward to camping next season. Also, the inexpensive price is always nice!
