I bought this tent for my grandson, and it's great. The only problem is I can't get it in the bag it came in. Directions are no good. Please help!

I wish I could help. Im having the exact same problem. We recently moved and I tried to pack it back on the bag it came in and ended up bending the wires. Good luck though!

It took several attempts before we got it right. We took the top (after unzipping it) and folded it, then the floor. I can't tell you exactly how we folded it. Just keep trying. It was a struggle to get it in the bag/case without help. Don't give up. You can do it.

I pack it in a compression sack then put it in my backpack and strap the poles to my external frame. The spaciousness of the tent when setup is well worth the carrying cost in my opinion. I'm been backpacking for forty plus years and this was my first "vestibule" tent, opened up a whole new level of luxury!

I've looked all over the place for the instructions. Please Kelsyus, post a video!I folded it, gave it a twist --it's too big to put into the bag. Do I fold it twice?

Not sure. The directions are on the bag & their website. You could figure it from there.

I would love if the seller could provide instructions or at least some helpful tips. Love the product, but it is definitely a struggle to figure out how to correctly put it back in the bag.

Hi Leslie, I bought one of the 10x20 Palm Springs party tents on Amazon, mine was sold by a company called Brandline. You might look them and I bet they can send you the instructions. Hope this was helpful. I sure love ours. Great quality and very resilient in the wind. GOOD-LUCK

Actually, the tent is boxed up again in my garage. I am sure if you call Coleman they could probably tell you. I'm sorry to not be of any help.

I don't think there were any instructions per say...But here is what we do: Square it up by folding the offset wings on the long side in. The next folds will be length-wise in thirds (I think) until it is the same width as the broken down poles. Then the poles and fly are rolled up along with the tent and it all fits easily into the bag

I tried ten weeks ago to resolve this matter with Amazon. Talked to people via phone and email. Final word from them was that it would be brought to the attention of the appropriate department, and thank you for your feedback. I have bought the tent and am satisfied with it. Just wanted to help future customers and Amazon. Thing is you can find the description for the alps mountaineering lynx 2 tent and can use it for the lynx 4. Seems like a simple fix. But???

Yes, but good luck trying to get the large tent to fold back up. I can do the small one, but I can't figure out the large one...and I'm not the only one.

I purchased the Genji Pop Up Tent, and since the day it was delivered, it has been sitting in a semi state of pop-up. I and numerous friends have tried to get it back down and into its holding container. I don't recommend buying this product!

I haven't backpacked with the tent yet. However, I have used it for several days during some light camping. Once disassembled, the tent fits nicely in a larger sack, along with two smaller sleeve bags holding the stakes, guy lines, and tent poles if/when needed. You can easily fit it in standard bookbag and even "mold" the larger sack by pushing air out around object already found in the bookbag. It's a really nice tent--just remember to bring a tarp or camping pad for the bottom. This will save you a lot of trouble in the long run--protecting the tent floor from getting damp or wet.

The one my son put together for their 2 yr old came with VERY in depth directions...and they were NEEDED! Contact the manufacturer, they should send them to you.

Hi, Judy! I think ours arrived with a very thin plastic cover/bag ... might work for a few days to make sure it's not totally exposed to sunlight, but nothing you'd want to use long-term. For our cover, we've ended up buying some waterproof tarps (like you'd put underneath a tent outside), and toss those over the rolled-up cover. If we're keeping it that way for more than a few days, we have some bungie cords to wrap around it and keep it from blowing off. Not the world's fanciest solution, but it works. :)

Just returned ours to Walmart. Our packaging was completely ripped up. It took a diamond drill and two of the guys from the worlds strongest man competition to get the thing opened! So we put it all in a bag, and took it back. Shame - it looked cool, and my son was excited about trying it out. Good luck to the rest of you!
