I purchased this tent to replace a 3 person I had that the zippers siezed on. We just got back from a weekend camping with this tent and I love it. Very roomy and has TONS of pockets inside. The first night it snowed/hailed and rained on us. It also got very windy, the tent withstood it all very well. We could hear the wind but could not feel it at all in the tent. The tent polse are very thick, feels very sturdy. I zipped some of the fabric on the rain fly into the zipper when we got in to go to bed..after a few minutes working at it I got it out and the zipper works fine, the fabric did not tear. On my other tent this broke the zipper apart. Very pleased with this purchase.
