I love the tent. It shields you from the sun, it's tall and spacious, easy to carry and pretty easy to put together. The directions are sown in to the bag that carries the tent so you always know how to put it together. When it was windy, the stakes that held the tent down worked beautifully. The only part that was a little difficult was putting the 3rd pole in. This required extra strength. Also, when it is later in the day and the sun is lower, the tent does not shield you from the sun as well.
