This tent is awesome! I love it! I highly recommend it!We bought the 23 foot (7 meter) version of this tent and have been living in it for most of the last month due to toxic mold in our house that needs to be abated.I highly recommend this tent! I live in the Willamette Valley Oregon where it is very wet. We have not had any problems with the tent. We have the tent set up on our property which is sloped down toward the creek. We set it up on the most level area we have, but when it rains, the drain-off runs downhill past the tent. We have not had any water in the tent even during the hardest of our downpours including a weekend storm. So far, we have only had 25 MPH winds and no problems with the tent staying up.The packaging left a little to be desired. While the box arrived with everything in it, the packaging was quite beat up and could use some reinforcement because of how large and heavy the package is. I would suggest some sort of wood or metal reinforcing the corners to help the package arrive intact. This would be especially helpful give the reviews about losing contents. That didn't happen to us, but it is a major issue in the Amazon comments here.The tent was quite heavy. There was no way that I could move it. My husband used a wheelbarrow to move it to the location we needed it on our property. The delivery person unloaded it while I was not here and put it smack dab in front of a door making it impossible to get into that door. I am guessing they were concerned about rain and put it under the eaves of the house. This is an issue with the delivery person not the item or Amazon, but it did make it awkward when the mold investigator arrived shortly after the delivery and couldn't get into the house.Setting it up on a slope is not recommended as the sidewalls on the downhill never stand up properly even if you stretch them as tight as you can. The angle messes it up. This is true even though where we set it up is only a SLIGHT slope. If you get the 23 foot tent, you actually need close to 35-40 feet of area to actually tie the tent down. More if you want walkways around the outside. For instance, if you store wood back behind your tent and need to walk around it to get the wood, there will be long ties on the sides stretching out from the tent in the way of walking. So account for that when you plan the footprint of the tent.Assembly was not complicated, but the instructions were only marginally helpful. Given the size of the tent, it took 4 of us a few hours to set it up. There are technically instructions with photos included in a pamphlet inside the box. The problem is that they have been poorly translated from another language requiring a lot of inferring what in heaven's name the person writing the instructions was trying to convey or if indeed they were drinking heavily. The translation of the instructions simply didn't explain things well and made the setup challenging. The most important part of setup is getting the stake lines out as far as possible to maintain the sidewalls, but they do not say that. Major translation fail.At least with the 23-foot tent, it is not a quick assembly. This is way too heavy and cumbersome to take backpacking or to take down and move regularly in our opinion. It is quite an undertaking to set it up and take it down. So we will probably not use this for recreational camping. I imagine that the smaller sizes would work better for this.It is well built in our opinion. I do not see any issues with the sewing or the fabric of the tent. The zippers and flaps all work as advertised. We have not added a stove yet so I cannot speak to that. Since we are close to home we are just using an electric heater and heated blankets for the time being. The weather is very moderate here. The seams of the tent are reinforced with some sort of plastic coating that is applied in strips to the length of the seams on the inside of the tent. I have no doubt that this helps keep water from seeping through the seams.I read other reviews saying that they had problems getting ahold of the company. This was not my experience at all. When I bought the tent, I needed it ASAP. USPS doesn't deliver to our home address, so we have a PO box. But some listings here on Amazon cannot use PO Boxes. This listing said that it was not shipped from Amazon. But I purchased it in a hurry and then realized I had it sent to the home address not the PO box. I contacted the company to find out if they were mailing the package via USPS because if they were, it wouldn't be delivered. They replied within 24 hours saying it was coming via FedEx which meant that the home address was fine (Amazon makes having a PO box and no USPS service at our home address complicated as they do not list how the item will be sent in the listing or at checkout). The company replied well within Amazon's estimated reply time. They were helpful and polite. I have no complaints about our interaction.The first few nights we were out of the house, we stayed in hotel. Because of my health problems we have to have a hotel room with a kitchenette. I figured we spent less on this tent and all the set up than we would spend on a week in the hotel. Well worth the money for what we got.I have no complaints besides what is posted here -- and I consider those to be minor issues. All in all, I love the tent and think it looks magical especially all lit up at night. The fact that it reminds me of a medieval/historically inspired tent is just icing on the cake.Edited to add info on 12/3/2022:We lived in this tent for 14 months while remodeling our house, selling it, and building a new tiny house at a new location. I standby the things stated in this review. At our new property, it was high humidity (sometimes 99% humidity) and we struggled to keep the tent dry and mold free. A dehumidifier helped. As mentioned in the review, it was not quick to take it down and move it. But overall, I'm still incredibly satisfied with our purchase and would buy one again.

The tent appears to be durable and well made.

The tent is beautiful, but the tent bag really sucks. The tent is heavy, but can be managed by one person and a hand truck. I am 5’4” female, but admittedly strong.It is possible to put up with only 1 person, however easier with 2.Staking it out very well is very important. Otherwise you may get a little water seepage through the zipper at the base of the tent. If I were to purchase again I wouldn’t want the ability to zip off the sides of tent from the floor.As for the tent bag…. It is not up to the task of holding a 100 pound tent (23’ round). Construction of the bag is completely too light weight. My first attempt to move the tent using the end loop resulting in the loop pulling right off the bag. Attempts to move it with the handles resulted in stitching coming apart that the handle/bag joint, leaving a hole in the bag. Bag needs to be larger to accommodate the tent once it has been used and rolled back up by real people. I was able to get it in and with great care, get it zipped, however… the zipper pull pulled right off the end of the zipper when I finished zipping it up, and the zipper is slowly splitting apart.Bag canvas should be much stronger and thicker and all webbing and the tent belts should also be stronger. Tent belts should be longer to allow you to use them. I was only able to get one back around the tent and was barely able to do that.Overall a wonderful tent with lots of room for many different configurations, but I will be searching for a better way to store it than the bag it came in.Thanks.

I got this tent in high hopes that it would be of decent quality…. I was completely disappointed with the first setup. Seams are coming apart with no rough use. The fabric isn’t ripping it’s just the thread they used and not double stitching the ends of the stitching. Vevor’s idea was for me to stitch up the parts that were coming undone and they would send me a “rain cover” to make it water proof again. The rain cover looks to be the flimsiest poly tarp material imaginable and is barely attached. It would also cover up the vents at the top of the tent making the tent really hot to use in warmer weather. It also didn’t have a spot in the rain cover to go over the part of the door frame that protrudes through the canvas. The rain cover didn’t even have a stove jack in it. After the initial set up and getting it back into the bag I used my finger to pick the bag up on one end. Barely any pressure on the loop and it completely pulled out.I am in no way even remotely impressed with this expensive 23’ tent. I got it to spend my time camping with the kiddo, not spending my time being a seamstress!

Overall, I am disappointed in this product. I didn't come with instructions on how to set up. The material is thinner then expected and it leaked through the seams during the rain.
