I couldn't find the post from earlier this summer when folks were asking about this tent and hoping for reviews.

I bought mine in March or April for about $200 and held it for a muley hunt this fall.

We set it up on Friday evening and had temps from 40 to negative something for the 6 nights we used it. Used a buddy heater attached to 20# propane can.

The heater was sufficient on low or "medium" with temps in the teens and 4 guys/cots in the tent. The negative temp night was too much - heater was on high and it did not remove the cold like it did on the nights in the teens...

We had sleeping bags rated for 0 an -20 and were fine but it was cold that morning. Ended up taking my 80 yo father to a hotel that day - he thought it would be okay but was a little much/cold for him.

Condensation did drip when we couldn't air out the tent - any tent without air flow will have condensation. Simple fix was to adjust cots when it dripped.

Did have frost/ice on inside ceiling in morning.

Had multiple days with winds to 20-25 mph and tent held up fine.

Was okay with snow but we only got about 4 inches.

Tent went up easy - poles are labelled well and are sturdy. Floor piece was tough and worked well.

It also came down easy and folded up nicely, fit back in the carrying case/bag. Heavy, weighs about 100#.

Turned out to be a great purchase.
 
My dad and I split one of these last year and used it on an elk hunt in colorado this year. You got a deal at 200 bucks. I paid almost 400 for mine. I love it though, no complaints. The stove jack works great also, we put a wood stove in and it stayed very warm even in the teens. I couldnt be happier with it.
 
Thanks for the feedback. Is the floor removable or is it seen into the walls?

Tent is a 6 or 8 oz polyester fabric with a poly-coating on the inside.

Robby - the floor is a separate 3 sided "tub" of a heavy plastic-like fabric. It has several lengths of velcro and some webbing with plastic buckles to connect floor inside tent - not air tight, close tho. The sides and back of tent have raised floor, front it flat.

Tent has 6 inch "snow flaps" along outside of tent. Supposed to pile snow along them. We didn't have any issues with drafts and I actually did put rocks on flaps along the back wall cause it was flapping some in the heavier winds (25 or so mph).
 
I just ordered one of these off a website called DINNUIO for $52.39. Also ordered the Ozark Trail Flex Ridge for another $56.19. I have no idea whether or not the website is legit...I have some doubts about that. Hard to pass up at least trying them both out at those prices, assuming I actually receive the tents. If nothing too screwed up happens, I'll report back here in case anyone else wants to give them a try at a pretty low risk price point.
 
I just took a look at DINNUIO and played with ordering a 505# canopy for $65 - it said free shipping! LOL!

Let us know if you get it. Thanks.
 
Great find! if that site is legit I will buy 2, watching for the feedback. At that price even a couple of years out of it is a steal. YouTube vide shows it packs up pretty small so this would be a great backup if nothing else.

Any word on delivery?
 
No, the site isn't legit. Instead of getting the two tents I ordered, I got a pair of fake Ray Ban sunglasses from China. It looks like a handful of others have had the same experience ordering from this website.
