I started camping with my father about 55 years ago and have personally owned and camped in thirteen other tent brands including Ozark Trail, Eureka, Kelty, Sierra Designs, Mountain Hardwear, and REI. Furthermore, I am a little older (65 years old) and a little bigger (6 3 ; 270 lbs) than the average camper. With these qualifications as a reference point, let me share a few observations and opinions about the Marmot Den 4 tent."],"source":"http://www.trailspace.com/gear/marmot/den-4p/"},"Moosejaw":{"source":"http://www.moosejaw.com/moosejaw/shop/product_Marmot-Halo-4P---4-Person-Tent_10034111_10208_10000001_-1_","Users Review":["Tent was super easy to set up and provided tons of room. First time using the tent we encountered a mid-afternoon thunderstorm that quickly turned into torrential downpours, heavy winds, and quarter sized hail. After the storm many campers packed up because their tents and everything inside of them were soaked. We stayed because not one drop of water entered inside the tent. I would also highly recommend getting the Marmot Footprint to protect the bottom of the tent, it also keeps the moisture from the ground seeping into the bottom. Without the rain-fly on you really feel like you are truely sleeping under the stars!"]},"Sierratradingpost":{"Score":["."],"source":"http://www.sierratradingpost.com/marmot-astral-3p-tent-3-person-3-season~p~5486j/?filterString=tents~d~228%2F&colorFamily=01"}}

Because the 2012 BH-4 has awnings instead of a fly-vestibule this optional add-on can work wonders during inclement weather. It is easy to put up, made of ripstop materials, and serves like a fly but without the disadvantages you have with one. It can accomodate up to three people in their chairs while watching the rain, instead of hiking."],"source":"http://www.trailspace.com/gear/big-agnes/big-house-4-vestibule/"},"Moosejaw":{"source":"http://www.moosejaw.com/moosejaw/shop/product_Big-Agnes-Big-House---4-Person-Tent_10044060_10208_10000001_-1_","Users Review":["The big selling feature on this tent is the vestibule.

- review: {"Trailspace":{"Score":["4.0"],"Users Review":["This tent excels as a family based tent. Its construction is very good and made of fine materials.It is the configuration that really makes tents different, from one another. The Marmot Limestone has its entrances on the 10 wider face and its length goes back only 8 4 . This does allow room to place such things as the cots, bedding or air mattresses towards the longer tent walls. This leaves the central area more accessible to the doorways without obstructing them, unless there are more than four campers. While a lot of tent manufactures, REI and Marmot included, have saved a couple of manufacturing dollars, they have created a lot of negativity from campers who want their privacy without closing the fly doorways. There is simply no way to block the mesh panels without the fly being on, and once it is up in warmer climes it can get stuffy, especially on hot days."],"source":"http://www.trailspace.com/gear/marmot/limestone-6p/"},"Moosejaw":{"source":"http://www.moosejaw.com/moosejaw/shop/product_Marmot-Limestone-4-Person-Tent_10116830_10208_10000001_-1_","Users Review":["I recently purchased 6 of these for my scout troop.

It might not be the bombproof shelter you want for your roughest mountaineering expeditions, but it will be the perfect tent for car camping with the wife and kids when our TNF Trailhead 8 is more tent than we need."],"source":"http://www.trailspace.com/gear/big-agnes/tensleep-station-6/"},"Campsaver":{"Score":["5.0"],"source":"http://www.campsaver.com/royal-flush-3-tent-3-person-4-season","Users Review":["This is a great 4 season tent for you and your friends. The setup inside looks like your traditional octagon tent, with some well thought out vents by your head and feet that also zip shut in winter. To accompany the side vents, the rain fly has stake loops and guy lines to pull the fly further from the tent and allow more ventilation. I've heard some say it would be tight 3 person fit, but I completely disagree with that. Three people has been very comfortable, and I could see even squeezing in a fourth if needed. It's roomy enough inside to have 4 or 5 people playing cards in the middle, and tall enough to change comfortably. The vestibules are nicely set up, and allow enough room to easily cook in the front. The way the zipper is cut allows you to have the vestibule open in the rain or snow without getting the tent door wet, and also makes for a great cooking place to release excess heat in bad weather. I have two small problems with this tent though- In nicer warmer weather if you want to fold back the main door, and keep the mesh door closed, the loops to roll the door into are way WAY too big, and come undone. The let the door just unravel, and basically lay open. I'm planning on cutting mine, and stitching them to about 1/4 the size. The next beef is with the stakes. It comes with great snow stakes, but they hurt like hell when trying to push them in. The top is an X shape, which just digs into your hand in tough snow, or dirt in late fall. You really have to use something like an ice axe, or rock to put on top to push with. I've spent a lot of nights in storms sitting in this tent, and haven't had any issues with water getting in. If you are camping in sand and the door gets wet, watch out when you open it up, because it tends to fall onto the ground and cover itself with sand until dry. As far as wind, snow, and storms go, it's bomb proof. So many guy lines, stakes, and great construction make this a great choice in all environments. It's truly free standing, meaning all the room inside is open unlike some 'free standing' tents I've used. It's a great buy that you'll use for years and years. It's a decent price for the weight and versatility, you'll be more than happy."]},"Moosejaw":{"Users Review":["The big selling feature on this tent is the vestibule. It's HUGE!!!

This tent will easily fit two average sized adults or just you and all of your gear. Probably the quickest pitch I've ever experienced, and easiest at that(even easier than my old pop up, and lighter by a few gallons of water). Sturdy construction and excellent design will just make whatever experience you are going for that much better. I would recommend this to just about anyone that is gonna do anything more than car camp. Just writing this review is making me want to go pitch mine..."]}}

It has plenty of headroom and lots of space, but the problems and lack of quality control outweigh the benefits. There are better ways to do it than to use a hula hoop. No, I would not recommend it because there are other offerings that do what Kelty has failed to produce."]},"Moosejaw":{"source":"http://www.moosejaw.com/moosejaw/shop/product_Big-Agnes-Big-House---4-Person-Tent_10044060_10208_10000001_-1_","Users Review":["The big selling feature on this tent is the vestibule.
