Only if you live in a dry tropical area... More of a sun shade than a true tent. Not going to provide any warmth and not waterproof. We use it all the time but just for beach outings.

Its a very small and very easy to put up. It just pops up. Might be too small for year round camping. We just use it to save our camping spot because it is so easy to put up.

I have peen better insulated ones for winter, so I'd say it's a 3 season tent. Be sure to get yourself a properly rated sleeping bag.

I wouldn't hesitate myself to use it as a floor when camping if I needed a floor for a canopy. But, that's just my opinion. I used it outside this past winter and spring. Wasn't exposed to snow or temps below 20 degrees. But, held up well enough for me to fold it and save for next year. Had no signs of wear and tear. that's about as best as I can tell you.

For many places in the northern United States and Canada, this is likely a 2 season tent. In the South it's likely a 3 season tent. In Southeast Texas where I usually pitch it, there are some days during the winter I am comfortable in it with the right clothing, sleeping bags, comforter/blankets, etc.

I used mine for camping, but it was never set up in bad weather for extended periods of time so I cannot say for sure.

Its got sum waterproofing on it ,you can tell bcuz wen i was camping w/this particular tent u could see the raindrops run off a lil bit ,but there is so much stitching in my opinion that there wasnt enuff coating of water proof .if i were u i would jus buy the canvas type teepees bcuz i actually been in one and it stays completely dry,but u hav2 hav a fire going for it to stay that way when it is raining .

I use this tent for commercial use actually. I run a food tent and the LED lights work the best. We set our first tent up at least 80 times through all kinds of weather before the frame finally gave. In my opinion, 80 set ups is a lot for a tent of this grade, for sure not the intention. We bought our second one a few weeks back. Would highly recommend this this tent.

I believe so. Once you've done it once or twice and get a system it should work fine. My 7 & 9 year old do it by themselves. We have been camping for years and never been so happy with a tent!

Certainly! I use the tent as a 3.5 season tent. It gas performed very well for me, on rain, in snow, in hit humid conditions and in temps in the upper teens/ low 20s.

You should look for a 4 season tent if you plan to camp in winter storms. Not sure id recommend this tent for any precipitation other than rain and winds <15mph.

I think it's a very nice tent. Whether or not it's good enough for renting out for a business opportunity I'm not sure. It is possible but I probably would have several on hand to use so it's not the only one you have. I would be afraid over use of it would cause it to break down faster than normal use. But all in all a very sturdy tent.

I'm sorry, I wish I could help, and answer your question. I bought this tent as a gift for a friend and i do not know anything about it specifically. I do not think he has had a chance to open it and use it yet. If I do get any feedback from him about it, I will post it on Amazon. I'm sorry that I can't help you out. I know I would like to know all I could about something before I bought it, too.

I cannot attest to whether this is good for the winter, as we have no experience with that. I suspect due to the tent's shape, snow will not accumulate on the top and it should do well. It is free standing but would require stakes on the ground if it is very windy. The stakes that came with it are small, but bigger ones are easy to get for little cost.

its designed to withstand hallatious snow and wind. this tent is super nice. just cut a footprint from a tarp and your good to go!

I bought this for a camp bed and it is satisfactory for that. I bought a 3 inch memory foam topper for it which improved the comfort. For myself, I don't think that it would be satisfactory for sleeping on every night year round. I needed a mattress that I could fold up to store, so this fit the bill. I have a friend who bought a LUCID by LinenSpa 10" Firm Memory Foam Mattress 25-Year Warranty ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00478U768/ref=twister_dp_update?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and he loves it. He says that it doesn't heat up and he has been sleeping on it for 3 years now (2 people). I didn't get this because of the storage issue and that it would spend the winter in an unheated space...hope that this helps.

I think it would hold up pretty good. You "nail" the tent down to the beach with stakes. So the better you secure the stakes the better it will hold up.
