Second Time We Set It Up We Were Dumped On With Rain That Evening. We Set Up At The Top Of A River Bank And We Must Have Gotten 4 Inches In An Hour, It Was Flowing Past The Tent So Fast. Had Water And Floating Debris All The Way Up To The Zipper. I Was Nervous Because Its Not Shaped Like A Bowl At The Bottem But It Was All Dry Inside When We Took A Look!. Took Shelter In A Nearby Building Because There Was Tornado Warnings. So It Went Through So Extream Weather. We Have A 6 Person For Comfort Even If Its Just The Two Of Us It Hold Everything We Have Along. I Would Make The Zipper Pulls Glow In The Dark I Think And Get Rid Of The Corner Shelf Things, They Are Useless, Cant Hold Any Weight But Other Than That It Really Held Up! Were Impressed! Were Gonna Be Living In It The Last Week In August Before School Starts! We Also Got It In Green It Blends In Very Very Well. Oh And The Tent Poles Were Great, Very Sturdy!"]},"sierratradingpost":{"score":["."],"source":"http://www.sierratradingpost.com/mountain-hardwear-corners-6-tent-with-footprint-6-person-3-season~p~6232d/?filterstring=tents~d~228%2f&colorfamily=01"}}
