how easily does the tent come off? (for changing sheets, etc). I read that it "clips on" but don't see any pictures of how the tent attaches.

The top comes on and off very easily. We had no issues changing the sheets.

I t is removable, but I just leave it on, it has a somewhat plastic hanging area on the sides. I usually just hang the garment higher on a door frame, or bunk bed that type of thing to get it up higher. I never use the pant hanger either, you can clip at bottom. I do wear gloves, though to resist being burned! ^_^

Its much easier to leave it all together, its really fairly light. You could easily have someone hold the rods, and someone hold the material though. Be warned, this tent is very small, when it says two people, it means it can fit two sleeping bags and thats it. You place your gear on the outside under the cover. It is a great tent though, and a steal at the price it is now!

I allow overnight but if in a hurry I use a little talcum powder on a partially dried seam as it tends to stick to itself very readily so you find that without talcum some seams on the tent hard to separate if they do stick together .

Yes you can put it on if you need it. I haven't used mine on tent yet but plan on putting it on at my next show. Remember no question is silly or dumb. How will you learn or make a decision ifnyou don't ask questions. Thanks hope thatnhelped.

If you are in low wind conditions, the tent sits just fine by itself but it is a light tent that would easily be blown away in high-winds. I've used 550 cord or zip-ties on occasion to secure the tent to the cross-bars at both ends of the cot through the tent's grommets. The rain fly clips onto the tent at the corners and there are additional nylon loops on the rain fly for blustery days. I have rarely had to secure the tent though. My gear is usually enough to keep it in place. Hope this helps.

The tent is an integral part of the cot and is permanently attached. The whole unit weighs between 25 to 30 pounds so it isn't going anywhere. If you were in some very high winds you could stake down the legs. The rain-fly has tie downs that attach to the legs of the cot.

The screen room does not come off, it is a complete part of the tent structure. As far as rope and tie downs, it has the required amount needed to support the tent.... However, I camp with extra stakes, nylon rope, etc. just incase I feel the need to make things a bit more secure.

We didn't have that problem, but we were careful. The poles need to be long in order to give the tent enough structure, but they are plastic tubes that if you don't use patience with, could easily kink or snap. My daughter loves the tent. It stays set up and goes on a shelf when not in use. I would hesitate to count on taking it apart and setting it up regularly.

Really pretty simple. If you've ever put up a tent it's the same. Slide poles thru and keep in place with Velcro flaps.

The tent comes with a divider that you can attach midway which separates both sides of the tent. We usually.put a queen size mattress in the back and use the front for changing clothes and gear.

Yes sidewalks remove easily. I found this was a one time use tent however. Take it down a couple poles bent under pressure and I had to toss. But if it's one day then it's cheaper than renting one

That is the beauty of this tent! There is a zipper to close off that section. I have used the tent on its own without having it attached to a vehicle.

It comes off using force upward on the bassinet and pulling down on the rest. It has belts to easily attach it if you want; I never did and had no problems.

Nope, and you wouldn't want to.The cot is made to attach to the tent with zippers. The tent itself has no floor - the cot is the floor.For much less money you could buy just a tent. And there are no cots that can be attached to this tent without extensive alterations.

You have to run the two poles through two inserts on the bottom of the tent. You will see them where the Velcro flaps are. I was also disappointed when I discovered it wasn't a true pop up tent, and felt mislead by the description. Depending on how rough your kids are on the tent, the poles may start to break through the inserts. My two kids go nuts when the tent is out, so ours is already in need of some major sewing to repair the inserts where the poles go.

I attached it at the head of my mattress and then you just "walk it down under the mattress". By holding onto the end of it and walking to the other end of mattress, it just slides along under the mattress....It slides very easily under the top mattress and is very easy to attach to the opposite bottom corner (the first line of your "X" if you can imagine that). We have a KING size mattress and I was able to attaching both of them, the only lifting was a little at the corner of the mattress to attach the strap to the underneath of the sheet corner.
