I just bought this tent and I'm planning on buying rebar stakes separately. How many stakes will I need to get?

The tent needs 14 stakes plus 2 for the awning. So a minimum of 16 stakes for a full set.

Although, the thumbnail image makes me think 14... 5 along front and back with 2 additional on each of the short sides. I was likely thinking of the 6 man when I initially answered.

16 total, including the two for the awning. However, the stakes that come with the tent are very beefy - I see no need to replace them.

It all depends how securely you want to anchor the tent down. Here's a breakdown of where you can stake the tent:Corners - 4Canopy - 2Long side - 6 (3 on each side)Short side -2 (1 on each side)Total -14By all means, order extra if you'd like. Those things go missing all the time, and it never hurts to have extras.

There are stakes already on each piece, just press it into the ground when the soil is reasonably soft. There are connectors on each end.You can also use a good utility knife to cut and custom fit pieces. The version of Suncast I bought is the stone-looking type (for a border, not edging, so it is 2-sided), it has held up fairly well over several years.

4stakes, one on each corner.8 if its windy, there is loops on the corners and middle too. Drive stakes inward towards tent to prevent from pulling up

I just pulled them out by hand. No problem. There's a nice groove at the top. You could probably use one of the other tent stakes to pull a stuck one out by wedding into that groove perpendicularly.

Yes, it comes with stakes, but they are very light weight and bend easily. I got more rigid stakes after the second time I used the tent and had bent most of the original stakes.

The original packaging comes with 6 stakes to secure to the ground. I bought supplemental stakes that had a larger head and easier to withdraw from the ground. All stakes work well.

The same company sells metal post stakes that you can drive into the ground; you would need one for each side of the panel to secure it. If you plan to put a few panels together, there is also a 2" square post that can add stability in between 2 panels. Word of warning: the stake & post combination is not strong enough to secure more than a couple panels together. I wanted a full-length fence, and I ended up needing to do some cobbling together (I can explain in detail if you want to know.) That said, the fence is gorgeous. This IS high-quality lattice, thick & well made.

All of the stakes are included. My husband installed this, and the run was finished running into a rock or plant. We did not place the edging very high, just enough to hold in the rock on the path. We are super pleased with this product...really made the pathway look a lot neater and keeps all the gravel in place. Highly recommend/

It actually comes with the right number of stakes but I bought an extra set just in case. I'm sure that I will eventually use one of the extra ones.

I don't use the stakes. I just put a brick on each corner. It's pretty tall so you'll need lots of space in your garage. You can stand close enough so that it will catch mishits except for the worst shanks. I would recommend a really good mat. I got the "4' x 5' Dura-Pro Plus PREMIUM Commercial Golf Mat" from amazon. It's $200 but by far the best you can get. I just recently replaced the catch cloth on the hitting net after 1 year of outdoor use.

It comes with everything. All you need is a stake hammer. Some people buy stronger stakes, but that depends upon your needs. The stakes that come with the tent are the standard thin round metal stakes that you get with any tent, canopy, or volleyball set. For very hard soil found at some campgrounds I suggest buying stronger stakes.

yes they do come with stakes ,but i had a terrible experience with this ,i staked it as well as i could still a strong wind came blew it tore it and now it sits in my backyard a torn piece of junk ,waiting to be hauled to the rubbish pile . The company DOES NOT stand behind its product ,amazon does ,they reimbursed me not the company . It is a nice idea but is too flimsy overall.

They say pound legs into ground- that's the stakes!! In addition to that go to hardware store & buy 3-4' sections of rebar pound in next to legs- wind stainless steel wire & wrap & tighten around legs-.that's what I did!!

well it is completely up to you and your need for the netting. i use 2x2x36inch wooden stakes... and i do believe you can purchase aluminum stakes for this.. but i made my own.. it is just a huge roll of very light netting.. you can fasten it will almost anything.. i have used 'zip-ties' to hold it up...etc.... hope this helps..

I made 2ft stakes from heavy duty rerod and used 6 in total all the corners and one in the middle on each side. This worked well for us and there was a windy day and we had no issues.

This tent is not freestanding--it comes with about 8-10 stakes (I think!) which are definitely required. The central pole only holds up the very middle of the tent and the sides sag unless you spread the stakes far enough away from the tent.

It comes with stakes that worked fine for me, although I purchased extra on the advice of others. You will need something to drive the stakes in the ground. Also a tarp for the ground is helpful. Easier to clean a tarp than the bottom of the tent.
