FIrst Camping Trip

Date:August 10, 2011

"Purchase this tent for our first family camping trip. Setup is easy once you know the sequence. We experience two nights of heavy rain and thunderstorms and did not get any water inside the tent.
On the last night we had a problem with one of the zippers on the rain fly. Were able to do quick field repair and Roots/Canadian Tire replaced it, no questions immediately upon return.

Love the trip and the tent."

Not as good as I hoped

Date:July 27, 2011

"I bought this tent because it's pretty much the only one you can buy with a full fly and sleeps that many people.

Using air mattresses it was hard to find space for 5 because of the geometry of the tent. We've since used a 10 x 20 square bottom tent and that works much better.

When setting it up I had difficulty with the poles. The ends of the poles have sharp edges and I ripped a hole in the sleeve. I saw this comment on other reviews as well. Most other tents I've owned (even the cheapest) had nice rounded pole ends.

After setting it up for the first time I noticed that one of the seams was coming apart. Since I was over the 7 day exchange limit at CT, I had to deal with Roots Warranty. The guy wanted me to take a picture of the seam and e-mail it to him - this after I spent over an hour getting it folded just right to go back in the bag. Forget that!!!!

I managed to get CT to take it back."

Great Customer Service

Date:October 2, 2010

"I've had my tent for a year now and when I setup my tent the first time this summer, the fly leaked. After applying way more seam sealer than I needed to, I realized that the factory seam tape had let go. AND, when I set it up one of the poles ripped the pole sleave.

By the time I called the Roots Outdoors customer service the summer was over, plus i didn't want to be without my tent over the summer. Thankfully I registered my tent because without any questions Roots Outdoors have sent me a new fly (telling me to keep my old one) and told me to send them the bill when I find someone local to fix the rip.

I would have preferred if nothing had happened to my tent, but when it did, Roots Outdoors was there for me.

I'm very happy with my tent, it fits my family of 5 and we all stay dry. :)"

Great Tent!

Date:September 1, 2010

"This is my first tent and i love it.
Pros
- Set-up. It took me and my cousin approximately 30 mins to set it up the first time (w/o instructions..), including the fly. The poles are colored and match up with the sleeves they easily slide through.
- Space. The tent has plenty of room for 4 adults, backpack(s) a folding table and chairs. It all depends on what you want the tent for. If you want, you can fit 8 people in the tent but there wont be a lot of room to get around. Each extension allows for a queen size air mattress and the center for a king.
Cons
- Packing it up. As is the case with every tent out there im sure, it can be tough to cram all the contents back into the bag. I couldn't fit the tarp that comes with the tent.
- Price. A little high, but you get what you pay for."

Great space for family

Date:August 20, 2010

"I did a lot of research before purchasing this tent. We were looking for something for our family of five to use as we grow. We camp at least a couple of weeks every year, and wanted this to be our family tent for a long time.

This Roots tent is a great shape. The centre area fits a queen air mattress, plus room for a portable crib. Our two young preschoolers slept in one wing, with our luggage stored in the other wing. The "rooms" don't have zippered doors, just small sheets that hung to visually divide the area. They don't provide much more privacy than that, and we have never used them. We just leave the entire area open as one room.

It's a snap to put up, and I (5'3") even put it up with a little difficulty by myself on one trip without my husband. The colour coded poles and the "match the logo" system of getting the tent and flu in the right position really help.

On our first trip, we did have issues with leaking - the bottom of the tent leaked pools of water where anything was touching the floor (luggage, air mattress, sleeping bags). Because the previous reviews were so positive, especially in the area of waterproofing, we called Roots directly. They sent us a brand new tent portion within two days. We also had one broken pole when we opened the tent for the first time, and that replacement came the next day.

We love this tent, especially the layout which really maximizes space better than the traditional square or rectangle tent.

(We have yet to get it back into it's bag, but we keep trying!)"

Excellent tent

Date:August 3, 2010

"This is a great tent! It was large enough for me, my wife, my two kids (ages 8 and 6) and our dog (75lbs). The two side rooms were big enough for twin size air mattresses for the kids and my wife and eye slept on a queen size air mattress in the main room. As is the case with most camping adventures, it seems, it rained one day and the tent kept us and our belongings dry. The tent was relatively easy to put up, although the main poles are very long and awkward to work with. We never used the guy ropes because 1) we didn't need them and 2) we weren't sure how they connected to the pegs. The slider on the guy rope didn't seem to allow for tightening. I guess we're just mechanically challenged. We really loved the fly which covered the entire tent which helped with keeping the tent dry."

Love it!

Date:July 14, 2010

"We love this tent. We are a family of 4 and finds this tent just perfect for us. There was plenty of room for a playpen, queen air mattress and a double mattress, plus our luggage. It was easy enough for my husband to set up and take down alone.

We didn't want to spend too much so we feel we got the most for the little we spent (we got it on sale for $249).

Would definitely recommend this product."

Best Tent EVER!

Date:June 27, 2010

"My family and I purchased this tent after extensive researching. We are a family of 2 adults and two small children. We got to the camp site not knowing how to set-up the tent. within an hour we had the whole tent set-up! very easy. The first night we decided to put the full fly roof on, and I am sure glad we did! at 3 am we had a torrential downpour last for hours. When we woke up the tent was completely dry! lots of vents ZERO bugs inside,( we were in the middle of a forest as well) Best purchase we have made!"

Great for car camping

Date:May 9, 2010

"We bought this tent last summer for our cross continent family trip. The biggest recommendation is the full fly. Even some high-end, big name tents don't have a fly that comes to to the ground. We like the two wings at the back, separate rooms for each kid! It's easy to put up (did it by moonlight in 20 minutes one night). Doesn't leak (remember summer of 09? half our trip was in the rain). Nice little vestibule and built-in door mat.
No, it doesn't fit back in its bag, no piece of camping equiment ever does. Just plan to get a bigger bag and save this one for something else.

Highly recommended, esp if you see it on sale!"

Great Family Tent

Date:August 6, 2009

"Before I purchased this tent I did quite a bit of research and googling. I wanted a "waterproof" tent that met the needs and price range of my growing family. After some searching I narrowed it down to the Pine Ridge, the Coleman Summerset Pass, and the large Hillary Cabin.

I read on a few reviews that Hillary tents were alright for their price but tended to leak and were for the occasional fairweather camper.

The Summerset Pass had excellent reviews and the coleman support seemed to answer my questions quite quickly. I liked the weathertec system and it seemed to be the right size. What I didn't like was the fly that only went part way down the sides and the lack of footprint.

That brought me to the Pine Ridge. Very similar to the summerset pass and the weather proofing seemed to be what I was looking for, it came with a full fly, AND it came with a foot print that was perfect for it's V shape. I waited for it to go on sale, $249, and I nabbed one.

We've been camping three times this summer and have met wind, rain and sun. The tent has ample room for my son's playpen, my daughters mattress, and the queen size mattress my wife and I use. With room for gear. The vestibule is small, but allows a place to leave shoes, tools or even a potty. During the rain, the water beaded on the fly and the tent stayed dry. The foot print has done a great job at keeping the moisture out of the bottom of the tent as well.

I have been able to set up the tent by myself and it takes about 20 min or so.

The only thing I don't like is when I unzip the vestibule in the morning, I get wet when I reach for the zipper. That's it.

AND...I've been able to repack all the tent pieces back into the bag, it took some trial and error, but it can be done.
Here's how:
1. fold the fly into a rectangle and roll tightly. Make sure it's no wider than the folded polls.
2. fold the tent into the same rectangle, then place the fly, polls, pegs, walls on the tent and rool it all together.
3. fold the tarp, place your tent roll onto it and tightly roll
4. Tie with the straps provided and it will fit into the bag.
Good Luck

I did follow the instructions and pre-wet the tent and seems prior to first use.

I strongly reccomend this tent, my family and I have enjoyed it very much.

Happy Camping"

Does the fly go all the way to bottom at the back

Question:

there is no pic of the back and I'm wondering if the fly goes all the way to the bottom or just 3/4. I looked at the tent at the store as well and there was no pic of the back.

Answer:

Yes, the fly goes all the way to the botton at the back. All around the tent there is about 4 - 6 inches between the ground and the bottom of the fly. This allows for some ventilation, but still keeps you dry.

Answer:

Yes, the fly covers the entire tent from top to bottom. There are zippered/velcro openings for the door areas, but you have the option of zipping them all closed and having it completely covered.
