Great choice for the occasional camper
By Kevin
I recently purchased this tent from Academy Sports & Outdoors on clearance for $37 dollars. The reason for purchase was a short notice backpacking trip. My old tent was long gone and I hadn't backpacked in years. I needed something... now. I would recommend setting it up at home before an excursion. (I didn't) I also pitched the directions (not advisable) Yet the tent was erected with ease! After returning home I timed the set up at 4:50 by myself, taking my time to still be cautious.It's free-standing, all-mesh (great view), with two pockets, and about 5 loops (4 corners plus a center) on the ceiling - looks as though a universal gear loft would attach. Its great for lights, watch, thermometer etc.Size wise, I had no issues with two full sized adults, gear and packs will need to be stowed under the single vestibule. I found the attached rainfly/vestibule and pole attachments are conveniently color coded by sides so that setup is simplified. The rainfly attaches with buckles that can be sinched tight. My only complaint is that the the tent has only one door, and one vestibule. Its not too big a deal but I'm convinced a good two person tent should have two doors. If this tent had two doors and two vestibules it would be a spitting-image of the Mountain Hardware Skyledge 2.1. Which is $350 and 3lbs 7oz.For a temporary tent, (my purchase reason) and the once-in-a-while backpacker/car camper this tent is fantastic. Backpackers will find it heavy at nearly 7 pounds. But if you are with a partner, just split the weight. (all in the poles by the way) You may want a compression sack for it. I tossed the tent bag and pole bags as they are useless, and stuffed it in my sleeping bag compartment of my pack, and the poles in my packs' side pockets. If you don't plan on staking the tent (I didn't) in mild wind it was just fine. But you will need a single stake for the vestibule to work. Because the rainfly lays over the poles there is significant room between it and the tents' mesh. Making it very breathable. I had no condensation issues.If stored properly and cared for this tent should last for many years, it appears to be well built.

Exceeded my expectations
By Richard
I purchased this tent for the sole purpose of using it for session two of my Woodbadge Training. On October 29th Woodbadge Coarse N5-347-11-1 became known as Winterbadge. Saturday start out with a light rain and by mid day turned to a mix of rain and snow. By 2:00pm a heavy wet snow began falling. When the we finally had a chance to inspect our tents, many campers found that their tents had collapsed. To my surprise my newly purchased Slumberjack Trail Tent was holding up very well against the weight of the wet snow. After shaking the snow off of the rain fly we returned to our training as the snow turned back to rain. At just about dinner time the rain turned back into a heavy wet snow and would continue as such on into the early morning. I can happily say that my tent was very dry on the inside. The vestibule kept my very muddy shoes protected from the snow that was building up outside. When I awoke the next morning there was a coating of snow and ice on the fly, again I walked the perimeter of the tent and shook the snow and ice off. This tent was designed for the punishment that it took, but it exceed my expectation and performed far better that several tents that cost almost twice as much.Should you decide to buy this tent, I do recommend replacing the tents stakes with better quality aluminum stakes. I may replace the tent poles with aluminum poles at a later date. Setup was very easy which is good, because the direction arevery poor. The tent comes with ten stakes but really you could get away with only 6, as the ten itself is free standing. Although this is listed as a 2 man tent I feel it is better as a tent for one adult or two kids. I was able to get my cot inside as well as my backpack and still have room enough to change.Simply said the Slumberjack Trail Tent was well worth the money I paid and again performed as well or better than tents costing more.

A Good value
By Jason Dorcy
I purchased this tent so I could go on Boy Scout outings with my son.This tent is not the lightest for backpacking, but the extra weight seemed a good compromise for the both the extra room and the low cost of the tent as compared to others that were considered good backpacking tents.It rained the night of my first outing and the tent did not leak and no moisture soaked through the floor material or the seams. This was surprising to me because the floor seemed to be so thin as compared to other larger tents. I assume the floor was made thin in order to shed some wieght.Nothing tore or ripped and all of the seams held together. Having said that, I am generally very careful my equipment.There was plenty of space in the tent for me to lay down my extra large ALPS Mountaineering sleeping pad, 64 liter backpack, daypack, lantern and shoes. I am 6' tall and weigh 210 lbs but did not feel crowed in the tent. I was able to shift from my left side to my right side and back without rolling into the tent wall or into my backpack on the other side of me. I don't think it would be very comfortable with two people in there with gear.The tent itself is almost entirely netted. The rain fly has only the door with a zipper.Pros:- Plenty of room for me.- Did not leak or drip water inspite of steady rain through the night.- The vestibule with the door.- Really easy to setup.- The price. Other good backpacking tents cost 3 and 4 times as much.Cons:- A little heavy as compared to more expensive backpacking tents.- I would like to have just a few more inches in the vestibule.
