This review is from: SwissGear Outdoor St. Alban Family Dome Tent (Sports)
Just received the tent last friday, next day we took it camping in the High Uintas in Utah. The tent came with acceptable tent pegs, the thing is huge! I am used to backcountry, backpacking tents that are rated for two people and can barely truly fit that amount in, this thing is rated for eight but I think you could get 10 adults in there! I am pretty certain you could fit eight cots in there and still have some room.
Set up is easy, instructions are printed on the inside of the tent bag, ventilation is great, and the rain fly covers everything that needs to be covered. It also comes well enough out from the tent entrance to allow three adults to stand under it and still be covered. I don't think it is really a full three season high country tent, I just don't trust it to be that water proof. For a family weekender though, it is fantastic, especially for the price.
Next week is a desert trip, with the amount of ventilation and the sheer size of the inside I expect it to do even better (I do think this is more of a dry climate tent than a mountain climate tent, even though it kept us dry through a decent evening rain).
I would highly recommend for anyone who needs a family tent and is planning on it being primarily for a weekend to a week type of trip.
The only con I have with it is that the rain fly is not bigger and does not pull away fully from the main body of the tent. I see that as a possible weakness where water might come through a seam or window.
