I used it about 14 days over a three week span and never had water infiltration. Great tent! Love it!

decent in moderate rain i got some water in the tent you need a tarp underneath even though the bottom liner is waterproof. the tent is very roomy. takes 4 to set up it can be done with 2. the rain fly holds up great as long as you bring a decent tarp you'll be fine.

I feel that this is a great backpacking/stealth camping tent. The tent is water resistant, but not water proof. Most rain will just run down the side of the tent to the ground, but if there is any areas where it can pool, then that will seep in. It is best to use this with a tarp or under a good tree. The bugscreen entrance is great for star gazing, and the walls are shear enough that you can see things approaching from all around you in the moonlight. If you are over 6'4" i'd recommend the one from Texsport, its 6 inches longer and is both camo and more waterproof, but not as resilient as this one.

Hi Courtney, this bivy has a hydrostatic resistance of 10,000 mm, and is suitable for use in snow. As with any bivy or tent, it is always best to use a groundsheet. It is also best to use an ultralight sil tarp with any bivy or tent, in order to give yourself some protection in case of any amount of rain ( http://www.amazon.com/Aqua-Quest-Guide-Waterproof-Lightweight-Silicone/dp/B005JEI932/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&m=A3U0POL7IT4VS5&qid=1384897180&s=generic&sr=1-12 or http://www.amazon.com/Aqua-Quest-Guide-Waterproof-Lightweight-Silicone/dp/B004RVHBLO/ref=sr_1_1?m=A3U0POL7IT4VS5&s=merchant-items&ie=UTF8&qid=1384897533&sr=1-1&keywords=sil+tarp ). The tarp can actually double as a ground sheet in snow, and you can wrap the bivy with the tarp for extra warmth in cold conditions. The perfect thing about using the bivy/tarp system, is that you have flexibility in a multitude of situations. On nice nights, you can use the bivy by itself, with the top layer rolled down, staring up at the stars through the mesh. You can use the tarp in any kind of weather, and you can also use it by itself, or with other tents, other campers under the same tarp, etc. There is no better solo shelter system than this type of bivy / tarp combo.

Mike, we just went camping with this tent for the first time two weeks ago. At 5 am the sky let loose a torrential rainfall, complete with lots of thunder and lightning. And it happened the next night, too. The tent was completely dry, withstood some strong winds, (of course it's important to stake it well), and dried up quickly the last day (which was sunny) that we were there. The fly is a little tricky to put on, but the rest was easy to set up. I'd recommend this tent to anyone, anytime. Be sure to use a good waterproof tarp underneath as well.

It is an average weight nylon tent material. Don't put anything that can't get wet in the little cubby compartments that stick out on the backside of the tent. I found that the only area of the tent that leaked but had been forewarned. You can put coolers and the like in there though. I would pre-treat it with a water proofing agent prior to camping. Won't protect you much from the cold but an adequate sleeping bag will. Stands up pretty well to wind. It stayed upright in a severe thunder storm with 60 mile an hour wind gusts. Albeit, there were four of us inside weighing it down.

Karon, it has been a bit since we ordered this so I can't remember the actual specs per se, however, we have been extremely pleased with the quality of these tents. We have 2. Both have exceeded our expectations. - Barb

It has a water rating of 5 ATM, which is equivalent to what we called 50 meter water resistance a decade or two ago. So while I wouldn't take this scuba diving or wakeboarding, it will be just fine in the rain.

It is waterproof, the material is heavy duty. I'm not sure about the warrany. I used mine last Oct on a pretty windy day, it helded up good except for the end panels, which did a lot of flopping and pulled out some of the eyelets. I would not recommend closing the ends on a windy day. the rest of the tent helded up fine though.

Pretty small, I fit mine in the side pocket of my pack with poles n stakes, its far from water resistant but for the price its not a bad tent if its nice or if you take proper precautions, I'm planning a hike through the smokies in April-may and im upgrading to north face storm break 1

The tent held up pretty well. It was unfortunately stormy when I used it, but we were nice and dry inside. It doesn't hold heat very well, due to the ventilation, so I wouldn't recommend it for colder weather. The front canopy over the door stayed in place fairly well. I had to re stake it after the rain soaked the ground, but only in a couple spots. The bottom of the tent held up nicely against any flooding our campsite got, and didn't tear from the cot we were using. I was really surprised at how well we stayed dry, we were expecting warm dry weather and got a sudden rainstorm that lasted all weekend. The tent held up pretty well.

I would not recommend it in a tent it is not rated for tent use that I noticed.

Sent it back to Amazon...seemed way too flimsy. Sorry...I don't know about the waterproof question.

This is a child's play tent, so it is not waterproof but is water resistant. The adult tents are waterproof.Thanks

It is not waterproof. However, I have had mine in the rain and it is more water resistant than a regular nylon pack. You can get a cheap raincover for it from REI or another outdoors store. I highly recommend this pack. It is great for backpacking and hunting. It is big enough that I usualy bring too much stuff with me, but it carries well.

This is a great tent for children, made of nylon material. You could use it outdoors but I wouldn't leave it out unattended. It's very light weight and probably not waterproof.

By design I would say yes. However, in reality, the floor material is very thin at only 1200mm. Most tents have a floor with 2000mm - 5000mm that has a water resistant coating applied. In addition to being thin this floor does not appear to have the water resistant coating. For that reason if you were to buy this you would definitely want to purchase a/the footrprint otherwise you will probably end up wet.

I'm afraid I can help with this one. I have yet to use my tent. I bought it for my survival gear and haven't had the opportunity as yet to check it out. Sorry. Will do a follow up entry as soon as I do though.
