 "Trampoline Tent" 2008-07-10
By Jennifer from VA
I bought this for my 7-year old son, but my 15-month old daughter enjoys it more. They both are able to play; rain or shine without worry of being drenched or baked. My daughter can play on the trampoline & I don't have to freak out, that she may fall off before I can reach her.

My husband & I assembled & attached it in 15 min. The trampoline was a little more complicated.

The tent is a great idea & investment!

 "Grandpa Purchased for Grandson" 2010-02-12
By Richard O'connor
I purchased an extra long sleeping bag as a Christmas present for my grandson who is going kayak tripping June 2010. I also purchased this small synthetic sleeping pillow to go with it. It is pretty small and one might want to fold it in half to get more of a pillow effect, but my grandson thought it was great. We were able to get the pillow into the waterproof duffel bag with the sleeping bag. I was pleased with the product.

 "This is not what was advertised in the picture" 2008-05-10
By captop (Los Angeles, CA)
The picture for this product shows a rectangular, plush-looking pillow. What is inside is a fairly flimsy SQUARE pillow. About the only nice thing I can say about this pillow is that it folds up into a nice tight bundle. Once you open it up, it becomes a very flat square pillow. Airing it out a while puffs it up a bit, but it's still a square. Skip this one.. it's not worth the price.

 "SlumberJack Camp Pillow" 2007-02-12
By E. T. Purtell (Yooperville)
This is good pillow for backpacking. This will not substitute for your pillow at home, and was not designed to do so. It is light, easy to carry, and takes us little space, which is what it was designed for. Try to remember to unpack the pillow, and leave it unpacked, for as much time as possible, prior to your trip. This will keep the material expanded as much as possible prior to your trip. If you pack it up, just prior to your trip, it will remain easier to use, and expanded as much as possible

when you go to use it. If you are camping out of a car, truck, or RV, take your pillow from home, and be comfortable. If you cannot afford/do not want the extra 3 or 4 pounds of weight, and the space to haul a regular pillow in your backpack, because you are hiking 6 or 8 miles a day with a backpack, take this pillow. If you are cheap/smart and/or frugal on space, buy a nice pack bag, put your clothes in it, and use it as a pillow, since you have to carry your clothes anyway. Try not to put the old socks on the outside of bag, near your head!

This screen tent is used at youth soccer games. It really does not provide "shade", but it does designate a place for our 2 youngest and their toys. The tent poles are of good quality and the tent goes together easily. The sides are just mesh netting and will eventually be in shreds, but for now they are loving it!

 "Great idea" 2008-09-30
By S. Hohman (Pacific Northwest)
We purchased this battery to go with our Eureka tent which has the plug-ins. It charged fast and for us easily lasted a weekend, although we only used it at night. It has a light which tells you when it's charging, charged and a push button to turn it on and off.

It does not come with any cords. You have to supply the cord or plug-in which is a cigarette lighter type connection.



In our case, the tent came supplied with a cord which extended through a special slot to the outside of the tent so you could sit the battery right outside the door.



This is good for using any type of 12 volt accessory such as a flashlight, DVD player, cell phone charger, or maybe a game player although I am not sure how long it would last with anything that draws much power.



We have an inverter which plugs into our truck which technically could probably recharge this battery, but I did not try that and would need to check the safety guidelines to see if that is recommended or not, but it worked great for us.

Customer Buzz
 "Nice idea but short-lived under actual usage" 2008-01-03
By Annette Keenberg (Los Angeles, CA USA)
Positives

Noiseless power anywhere. With the addition of a 110 invertor, you can run most any gadget without worrying about finding an outlet.

Compact size. Too heavy by far for backpacking, car campers will love this if they've always wanted to be able to run their computers in their tents. Or tailgaters who have a TV to hook up and only a small spot left to pack in power.



Negatives

Eureka customer service. Don't expect them to respond to questions posed via email and be prepared to wait a while for phone support.

Very small charge in the end. It takes 8 hours (when using your wall outlet) to charge and less than an hour to drain. They don't mention that part in any of the pre-purchase materials. If you are running a laptop off of it, expect just under an hour. If you are running a TV, plan on 30-45 minutes, depending on the size (13 or 15 inch). Power tools get about 15 minutes. All that is spelled out clearly on the paperwork you get only after you buy.



Summary

If you are looking to power a small lamp or fan in your tent or be able to re-charge your cell phone, this works fine. If you want to use it for laptops, digital cameras and such, plan on getting less than an hour of power for an all night charge.

I ordered this screen arbor June 18, 2009 to go around a kiddie pool for my child to protect against bugs and to provide shade.

It was easy to assemble and looked nice.

Not even two months later three of the ropes that tied down the tent to stakes needed replaced as they had snapped, one of the top panels has fallen apart (I am assuming the "sun rot" I have been reading about in other reviews), and the corners where the metal pieces you tie the tie downs to are attached are coming apart from the tent.

A poor quality waste of money!

 "just cheap screen house" 2009-07-23
By J. KOH (ny, usa)
pro : cheap, easy assembly, looks like waterproof

cons : cheap material, some pole doesn't fit, big mesh

Before this screen house, I got 14 by 12 screen house at Sams club by swissgear which was very good, well made and good price. I felt it was to big for us and returned it. The second one was by greatland at nearby target store. The quality was much poor than the swissgear's. Finally,

I looked at the reviewes here and bought this one. I was happy about the cheap price. The pole looks likes steel which is easily get rust and some of them I cannot plug it in. I tried to bent them and manage to fit in. The screen mesh is lage compared to ordinary mesh of any tent. The roof material is same thing as a tarp and look like water proof which is good thing. The carring bag is big and nice. In my point of view, this is just a cheap screen house not better worthy than the money. You cannot expect quality of coleman or Eureka for sure.

What I did not like: The directions said that I needed to water proof the seams else they would leak because of the stitching: why did not the manufactor do this? On initial setup: One of sections of poles had a small dent that did not allow me to in sert the other pole in it; one of the sections of poles had been scraped and had rust on it and 1 1/2 inches of screening had come loose from the center strip. I can live with and or fix these items but I'm not so pleased.



What I did like: I received it in a timely fashison it was easy to put up by myself. I liked the storage case that came with it. It meets my basic needs.

 "Spend your money on a tarp" 2009-11-21
By Mark Lydic
I bought this because I thought it would be good match to my new tent. It was in size but in durability your better off buying a roll of trash bags and laying them out on the ground. That is what this amounts to. The material might be 4mil plastic at best. Do yourself a favor and buy a good old blue tarp that fits your size tent and fold over the edges if necessary. This thing does nothing but keep the dirt off the bottom of the tent, punched holes through it immediately after placing it on the ground and kneeling on it to speread out the tent. Mine is now going to be used as a drop cloth for painting.

Although not really expensive,this plastic ground cover is not worth the price. On it's first use, this relatively light weight plastic ground cover developed holes from the slightly uneven ground surface at the campsite (small rocks and roots, which are quite normal for most campsites). If I had it to do again, I would not purchase this product but would instead put the money to better use by buying either a 6-mil piece of heavy duty plastic or by purchasing a heavier duty tarp. Happy trails!

Have only taken it out once but it was easy to set up, easy to adjust the fly, very lightweight, and easy to roll back up into its sack. I bought the footprint as well. I actually forgot to use this but there's a gear hammock included along with 2 mesh pockets on the tent walls. As for space, it's more of a 3-person tent but 4 could squeeze in if you put gear in the 2 vestibules. Get regular stakes if you end up on some hard ground - the lightweight aluminum ones will bend.

 "So far, so good..." 2008-06-05
By Loren Smith (Provo, UT United States)
I have been pleased with this tent so far. I have a couple of children that I am introducing to the wonderful world of backpacking and was looking for a tent large enough to accommodate us comfortably.



I searched all of the major tent brands and made several trips to REI and other sporting goods stores before I made my decision. The reasons that I chose this tent are:



- It is large. 100"x82" is a healthy size. Throw on the two vestibules and you have a TON of space.



- Full rain fly. The full rain fly is especially helpful in adverse weather, as long as you have it installed correctly (not touching the sides of the tent).



- Light weight. This tent weighs in at eight pounds even (I have not confirmed this, but the specs show the 4.1 at an even eight pounds). This was one of the biggest factors for me. I needed a tent that I could carry as I ascend the 3000 feet from trailhead to our destination at 10,000 feet above sea level. Most of the competitors' four-man tents weigh over 10 pounds. If you in a resource rich environment, you can shave weight by ditching the tent stakes and using sticks that you find on the ground as tent stakes.



- Modest price. This tent was within my price range. MSR makes an exceptionally light three person tent but the weight of the price tag was too much for me to carry. I would have lost too much sleep worrying about what the wind was doing to my $450 tent.



There are some areas that I am still a little skeptical about:



- I don't like the plastic snaps that hold the poles in the corners. They feel sturdy enough, but I am still afraid that this will break under the demands of young children learning to use a tent.



-The bottom of the tent is quite thin. I didn't notice this at the store, but it was very noticeable to me once I set it up for the first time in my living room. This is one of the few sacrifices that are made to keep the tent light; we will see how it holds up to my children...



My first camp out with the tent was successful; good ventilation, lots of room, and easy set-up. All in all I am pleased with this tent. I can't wait to get out on the trail and give it a full backcountry test.

Customer Buzz
 "Better Than Ever" 2008-05-27
By Mike (Bound Brook, NJ United States)
Let's face it - buying a tent is like buying a house; unless you build it yourself, you are never going to get exactly what you want. That having been said, the Kelty Gunnison 4.1 4-person tent is pretty close to exactly what I wanted, and a great tent.



Packed up: The G-4.1 is at the large end of what you want for backpacking. Packed up, it measures approximately 8"x28" and weighs about 8.5 pounds, so it's going to take up a lot of room either in your pack or (more likely) strapped on the outside of your pack. But if you can hack it, that's really a pretty light weight for a tent this size. On the otherhand, it's a perfect size/wieght for car camping, if not on the small end of that spectrum.



Included in the package are (1) the tent; (2) two super lightweight aluminum poles; (3) rain fly; and (10) lightweight tent stakes with tie down lines.



Set up: This is where the G-4.1 is truly spectacular. When I got the tent, I quickly glanced at the directions for set up and decided to do a test run in my living room. If you want to do this too, make sure you have a BIG living room and lots of room to manuever the poles, cause they are REALLY long and I was constantly knocking over books and pictures. Anyway, I unrolled the tent and put it on the floor. I then put the poles together -- each pole breaks down into several smaller segments that are permanently linked together so you can't lose them. As you can see from the photos of this tent, the poles criss-cross at the apex of the tent, forming a big X from which the tent is suspended. Kelty uses a "clip" system in which the poles simply click into plastic brackets, rather than you having to thread them through anything. Each end of the pole is then fit into an anchor at the bottom corners of the tent. The rain fly was also extremly easy to put on, with the anchors for the poles also doubling as the anchors for the rain fly. The bottom line, folks, is that I think this tent took me all of about three minutes to set up. I was truly amazed at how easy it was. The best way I can describe it is that the G-4.1 is totally intuitive in the set up -- you look at the parts and you can just see how they fit together. Really an awesome design job.



I just took this tent camping for the first time last weekend and set it up in very quickly fading light conditions. I had the whole thing set up and staked down -- footprint, tent, rain fly -- in a little over 10 minutes.



One thing I would recommend is that you grab six (6) little caribiners to attach the rain fly lines to the tent. They don't come with clips and you have to tie them on otherwise. Also, make sure the fly is in as little contact with the tent as possible to prevent moisture buildup from condensation. If you have the fly on properly, this is not a problem because the design of the fly and tent take care of that for you. Also, get the foot print or a tarp for underneath.



Tent Features: The G-4.1 has a lot of really great features. First, it has a circular zip door on each side. This may not sound like a great innovation at first, but think back to your camping experiences and having to climb over people to get into the tent. Second, the G-4.1 is extremely well ventilated. There are large mesh sections of the walls, in the doors, on the top of the tent so that air flows freely through. Third, the G-4 has great visibility if you don't need to have the fly on. The afore-mentioned mesh sections let you see the stars. Fourth, the floor design keeps the bottom seams off of the floor, which will keep you dry. Fifth, there are little "gear" bags on two sides of the tent, to stash your glasses or a flashlight. Sixth, there are clips on the ceiling from which one may hang extra gear bags and the tent comes with a "shelf" that you can tie up there -- very handy for a light or for other stuff. Seventh, the rain fly creates dual vestibules in which your extra gear can be stored and, since you have two doors, both vestibules are easily accessible.



Tent Construction: Along with the "bathtub" seams, this tent is very well put together. Tape stiching at important junctures, double stiching all around, and a good, taut, solid feel to the tent. The floor material is good for soft ground, but I'd recommend the foot print just to be on the safe side. The fly fits on like a glove and provides for some ventilation as well. This is a solid tent, and once you get it set up (and assuming you put the stakes in the ground), it's not going anywhere.



Size: I think we all know that "4-person" in tent-speak really means "4 people no larger than 5'8" and 160 pounds, maximum." The G-4.1 holds true to this convention. I'm 6'2" and I barely fit in this tent the way people are suggested to lie in it (head to toe across the short side), and I don't fit in with a sleeping bag. I had my wife (5'6") and my 6-year old and 2-year old also get in the tent at the same time. Thinking to the future, the G-4.1 will be comfortable for three of us but too tight for all four of us. If we all four go camping, I'd bring a 2-man tent for the kids and keep all the gear in the G-4.1 with the adults. But if you have three or less people, this thing is spacious and feels that way.



I love this tent. Buy it!
