Appology for my poor English. Been using it for about 50 overnights, in Australia, with my wife and two kids. Had a 3P Sierra Designs before.

Pros:

The tent is large, water proof and quite well built, but that’s about it.

Cons:

The mashes can’t be covered, so you have to put the fly in order to be protected from sun, rain, wind and having some privacy. The fly requires 6 pegs at least, and since the tent is totally pointless without the fly, it is not a truly free standing tent. This means, too, that when the weather gets cold, you can’t limit the air flow, so it gets cold inside, and if you need to build or fold it when its raining, the rain will get in.

Same when the hit is on- as the fly has no windows at all, the day’s hit stays inside.

You end up with a tent that requires about 40 minutes to put up and with a poorly inside temp control in all weather conditions.

There is more-

you can’t open the fly’s door from the inside without bending under the fly’s angled exit wall, and at morning time this means that you’ll get wet and it is almost impossible to put-up the fly over the tent with no 2nd person’s help.

There are tents out there that can be built in few minutes (Australian’s “black-wolf turbo lite FS”), and that have a close-able windows in the tent’s body as well as open-able windows in the fly (many types and brands) so you can control the inner temp much better.

Keep on looking.

I like the quality and size of this tent. Especially the sturdy aluminum poles and the screen porch.

I find the first reviewer’s comments must be taken with a grain of salt. Sounds like they wanted a tent that will shed wind and water, require no bending over, keep water out but allow airy ventilation like a screen house, and still fit a king size air mattress with room for the kids and the dogs too. Oh, and can be popped up in 10 minutes. I’m looking for that tent too!

But until I find it, I’m using the Pavilion. Classic Kelty quality in construction that provides tons of headroom and spacious. Also handles wind and rain pretty well if you tie it right. Yes, tents that allow you to stand and stretch inside need to be tied to handle the wind. Imagine that. This is a big tent folks. And you will need to put the fly on and tie it if you want to handle a thunderstorm.

You can’t have it all but this tent tries.
