We have used this tent about 3 times now and have been very impressed with it, both in pitching and it's size.
Pitching
It's pitched inner first and this has been very easy to do, it has colour coded poles so you cannot get them wrong, the only thing I don't like about this is if you had to do it whilst raining. The flysheet is a bit more of a handful and at first it seems daunting, but after a coule of times, you get to know where it should lie and it's not too bad. There are loads of guy lines and it is very stable once pitched, the first time we used it, there were very strong winds but it had no problems coping.
Living in it.
The living space is very good, a high roof and plenty of room, the bedrooms are fine, enough space for a double air bed and clothes bags at the end of the airbed. The only gripe about the living area is the windows and doors, the no see um mesh is only at the top of the doors and the windows of the inner do not have the mesh, so if you open them it can let insects in.
All in all very happy with the tent, and you can increas the living area with the Hartford Canopy.
