I recently bought a Greatland Piece of GARBAGE tent from Target and got rained on inside the tent AND two of the poles broke. When a tent truly "leaks" it leaks through the fly, from the top of the tent, and drips on you and your stuff. Needless to say I returned it and got my money back.So I decided to buy a Eureka! 1610 because of the reputation.This tent is VERY easy to set up! There's only 4 poles!! Pretty much idiot proof! Directions are very clear. I set it up myself out of the box in less than 20 minutes! The clips are very easy to use! You have to get the poles right though because they're different sizes (main poles are beefier) but the directions are very clear on this. Bottom line, set up with 2 people should take 10 minutes tops!You could tell the difference in quality from the less expensive Coleman and Greatland brands (although, I've had great luck with Coleman!) and the Eureka. The fly and tent are waterPROOF, not water RESISTANT (there's a difference!) like cheaper tents. This doesn't mean you don't have to seal the seams though!! It says right in the directions of most if not all tents to seal non factory sealed seams!! Many beginners don't realize this and end up with a little water and think there's something wrong with the tent. It's also important to use a ground cloth (tarp) underneath that's just slightly smaller than the tent!So, I set the tent up in my yard because there were nasty storms moving in so I wanted to put it to the test. Over the next day and a half it stormed and rained non stop! It rained about 7 inches during that time!! Extreme downpours! I looked at my tent and thought "there's no way it's not leaking with this wind and rain." I went out in the rain the next day(got soaked!) and looked inside. Even though I hadn't sealed the seams yet the fly was not leaking AT ALL! There was a little water by each door. And when I say a little, I mean about a half gallon total in the tent.... that's it... for 7 inches of rain in 36 hrs!! Soaked it all up with a towel. I was amazed! I'm quite confident that when I seal the seams it will be even better!!If you want a tent that stays bone dry in a storm, buy a camper! If you expect you don't have to seal the seams of your tent, think again! As for this tent, you can't beat the quality for such a low price!

This tent is a fabulous deal. I can't believe it comes at such a low price. I purchased this tent and used it this week. It was a breeze to set up. I've had other dome tents that were smaller but had more poles. The tetragon has 2 main poles and 2 secondary poles. Took my husband and I about 10 minutes from the time we had it out of the box. The real test, however, was when it poured rain most of the night on Sunday. We were quite concerned about leakage as we had not sealed any of the seams at home. By morning there were 2 small puddles (4-5") at the bottom of each side door zipper. I think if we seal that area, it would be leak free. The tent is rated to sleep nine, but I think that would be quite crowded. Figure about 7 adults maximum. We had five with room for all of our duffles. As stated before, a great tent at a great price.

We purchased this tent and returned it all in the span of 7 days. First off the fly is way too small for the size of the tent. It serves more as a hat than a rain coat. The slanted/sloped ends of the tent are not sufficiently protected by the fly. Rain hits the slope and rolls down into the zipper area. The way the flap over the zipper is designed it allows water to pool up and ever so slowly, but consistently, drip water into the tent where the two zippers meet. This may or may not be improved if the zipper flaps were redesigned and the zippers were able to zip the door closed at the top rather than the bottom corner. I'm not convinced it would be a 100% fix because no matter how you slice it, the fly is still too small. I also used the recommended sealer on all seams and all of the seams leaked at one spot or another. You really have to use the toxic stuff but for many manufacturers it voids the warranty (not sure if that is true in this case or not).We were extremely dissapointed in this tent. We have been Eureka owners for years but ultimately wound up purchasing a tent from another company. Eureka makes great tents for backpacking but I wouldn't recommend this tent unless you are expecting sun for the duration of your campout!
