Product Description
The Tradewinds Guide 6 features No-See-Um mesh doors on the extra-large vestibule, for superb ventilation and comfort on humid, buggy evenings. The main tent body uses a special 3-pole configuration making this a very stable tent in windy conditions. We have also incorporated an extremely large free-standing, ridged vestibule which uses Chinook’s unique VestaRidge™ system and a heavy duty, oxford nylon floor for extra protection against wear and tear.

We had this tent for more than a year and went camping with it many times so far. It's roomy, I'm happy with the height inside and with the vestible. For its large size, we were able to set it up quickly every time after the first time -you know, first time takes always longer - and it always fitted back in the bag it came with.I have to remember a vacation in Smoky Mountains last year where we had a rainstorm during a couple of days. The tent came out in outstanding condition after it: no leaking, very good wind stability, we were able to have air coming inside thanks to the meshes and had no condensation. The rainfly kept the water out at a good distance and dried very quickly. The fact that it has a large size vestible helped us cook and eat in there. We are very happy we have chosen this tent and would recommend it to everyone.

The design of this tent is great, I really do like that aspect of it. It's roomy--a 6'4" person can stand comfortably. The materials are very cheap, though. The zipper came off of the bag it came in the first time we tried to put it away so we had to use a gym bag instead. The stakes that it came with were a total joke, every single one bent. Luckily I bought heavy-duty ones before our first use so we were able to actually put the tent up. During high winds, one of the poles snapped as we were putting the tent away. Also, one of the zippers on the rain fly broke so the vestibule got wet when it rained since we couldn't zip it closed. We paid a lot of money for this tent and I feel like we didn't get what we paid for.

I purchased this tent about a year ago and have used it almost once a month since. It's a great tent for myself and children - 3.It has served us well through severe thunderstorms with hail and 50mph gusts, while other tents collapsed and leaked, including K*lty. We've camped in 17 degree weather and with a small cat heater we were very warm and comfy. As with any tent, there is a learning curve to setting up, I can set it up in about twenty minutes by myself, ten with help which isn't bad considering this is a large tent. I can even get in back in the bag with a little room left. All said, this is a great tent for a family and it has a lifetime warranty.Pros - waterproof,sturdy,roomy, and lifetime warrantyCons - needs beefier stakes
