This tent has a large vestibule, two rooms and doors, color coded poles making tent construction easy. The room and the tent floor measurements give you some nice space.

There is one annoying aspect to this tent though. The windows only close from the outside which means you will have to get up and close them if the winds start to really pick up.

Although this tent does come with color coded tent poles allowing for an easy to understand set up.

Also considering the size of this tent it should be staked down to prevent the wind from lifting it up even though the tent is a freestanding tent. Using stakes as a backup is always a good idea making your tent extra secure.

Cross ventilation / gap between layers

Space

Fastest instant tent

Consider the Ayamaya 6 person pop up tent which offers plenty of room for four people on a rainy night, and the rooms can be divided making space for gear or another sleeping room on the other side.

Since the tent is double layer one may worry about it getting too hot inside the tent. The layers are balanced by two mesh windows allowing cross ventilation and a gap between the two layers creating extra ventilation.

The Ayamaya comes with only one door so you might wake people up while trying to reach the front door. There is also no center loop for hanging a fan so keep that in mind.

Also it can be a bit of a challenge to put the tent back into it’s bag, instead of doing this by yourself find someone to help you, it’s a lot easier when there are two people.
