  • Durable, Roomy and Easy Set Up
Style: 12 Person
We did a lot of research before buying a tent. After trying a Core tent we decided to return it and purchase the Bushnell 12 man tent. There is absolutely no comparison in quality. The Core tent was thin and seemed like it could rip easily. The Bushnell’s material is thicker and seems far more durable. Set up and take down were a breeze. My wife and I were able to put it up in about 5 minutes. The instant tent hubs snapped into place easily and the telescoping support poles were a breeze to expand into place. We didn’t use the fly this last trip since it was beautiful out and no chance of rain but we have used it before and it was easy to install - just clip it at the bottom of each pole. The six windows offer plenty of great airflow, especially with the rain fly not installed. All of the zippers are very sturdy. No catching and they zipped smoothly. About the only thing I’d change is the door. I prefer the hinged door some Coleman tents have, but most large tents have the same three zipper door. It worked fine - no issues - but a hinged door is more convenient. Overall, I’m very happy with the quality and functionality of this tent. The Bushnell is a tad more expensive than some but the quality of the tent more than makes up for it. ... show more

  • Good quality tent!
Style: 9 Person
Love this tent! Very easy set up and take down. And you can actually get it to fit back in the bag. We did have rain and no leaks. Of course, we did water proof it first. We used a piece of indoor/outdoor carpet to put on the floor to protect the bottom from our camp cots. Also kept us sand free.

  • This tent is better than expected!!!
Style: 9 Person
So we bought this tent before we checked the weather of where we were camping. We set it up for the 1st time in 10-15 min max, including taking it out of the shipping box, laying tarps down, moving it, setting it up, then staking it. It was a joy not messing with 15 poles. It opened easy like an umbrella and then extend the legs. Easy peasy! About 3 hours after we arrived the Temps dropped into the mid 30s!!!!! We stayed pretty dang warm. Infact, at 4am I went out to for a potty break and felt the drastic difference in temperature inside the tent vs outside. The next three days brought poring rain and 40 degree Temps. We stayed warm and DRY! No leaks even with torental rain and heavy winds. This tent is way better than I expected. In the summer the large screen windows and side vents will help cool the tent down, I am sure. All in all highly recommend. We got the medium size. It fit our queen bed and two 49 inch dog beds. 2 folding chairs some tubs and tables. With space left to maneuver around. Did I mention durability. I have one 130lbs dog and one 100lbs dog. They are NOT gentle and the tent has stood up to scratching, trying to push the doors open, trying to poke nose through windows and screen doors. So it is durable! Great investment. If you are on the fence, I recommend buying it. ... show more

  • Broken straps out of the box
Style: 12 Person
Just got it on Wednesday, set it up on Thursday at home, and noticed broken straps on Friday. It’s never been used to camp yet. First off this tent is huge and has so many great qualities. I was bragging about the thoughtful engineering. Easy to set up but a awkward if your solo. Needs two people to pop up. I unboxed it and it appears to be brand new condition and not a reboxed return. I opened it in my driveway to waterproof it and noticed the broken strap that connects the pole to the bottom of the tent near the entry door. After inspecting the others 2 more are worn and about to brake. This is super frustrating since it’s huge and a pain to ship back and that I paid $480 for a quality tent. I’m going to reach out to Amazon and Bushnell for a possible repair. Disappointed! Update: We were camping with the family the next day with no rain expected so I decided to give it a try. I zip tied the broken straps to the tent to make it work. When setting up at the campsite I noticed 2 holes in the tent floor and on on the side of the tent. We kelt gets small bugs in the tent so I assume there were more I wasn’t aware of. So after 3 cans of waterproofing spray, tent repair patches, and zip ties I’m out about $40. At least UPS will pick it up the return because it’s pretty heavy for me the lug around on my own. Terrible product. Lots of good thought to engineering this tent and size is amazing but quality it is not. I would recommend a different tent. ... show more

  • Good tent at this price point
Style: 6 Person
This is good tent overall. Great size for a single queen air mattress. Tall enough to stand up in. It can easily be setup by one person but easier with two. It is also easy to take down and get back in the bag. It has lots of built in storage features and the rain fly extends out to provide a small covered area that provides shade and prevents rain from getting in the tent when using the door. This is the second one of these tents that I have purchased. The first is still in use after five years and dozens of camping trips. The plastic hub at the top of the tent failed recently causing one of the poles to bend. I replaced the pole with a piece of electrical conduit and drilled out the plastic hub to attach the new pole with a bolt and nut. I considered throwing it away, but the rest of the tent was in such good shape I decided to keep it. This tent has performed well in rain, cold weather, and heat. When the rain fly is removed you have an excellent view of the stars great ventilation. We have two other Bushnell tents. They have all been good quality. ... show more
