The Meramac series tents are all free standing 2-pole designs with shock corded fiberglass with aluminum ferrules. The ferrules are the "connectors" that hold the poles together and we use aluminum, rather than steel, because aluminum can never rust. Our fiberglass poles are also normally one size larger than normal to offer you a sturdier, stronger tent. We use lightweight but strong polyester fabrics. The side walls are uncoated so the tent can "breathe" under the urethane coated fly. The fly uses a pole in the top, which gives you an awning over each door for excellent rain protection. Our fly is full length on the sides, not 3/4 length like some others, for better weather protection. We even have our factory seal the seams on the floor and fly for maximum water repellency. Entry and exit are enhanced with 2 doors, which means if you have to get out at night, you don't need to crawl over the others to get to the only door. The second door is also nice for extra ventilation in hot, muggy weather. Our door zippers are a #8, which is one size larger than most, for extra durability. Mesh storage pockets and a gear loft are included to help you keep your gear organized. If you're interested in an even heavier oxford floor and larger #10 zippers, you can always check out our Meramac Outfitter Series as another option.

Average Quality
I purchased this tent about 2 weeks ago. This is not a cheap tent. While assembling the poles, I noticed several scratches, and loss of paint. It seems that these are used poles. The tent floor is very thin. Tent must be placed on heavy-duty tarp. They can improve this easily.

A nice 3 seasons tent
We bring the tent to Mojave desert, it was a windy day with 40mph gust (way more than forecast) for more than 12 hours. With the tent property secured, it amazingly withstand the windy.When stay in the tent, it is super cold and windy. So considering warmth and wind hazard, we have to stay in a car for one night.Overall, this is a very nice tent for warm and calm seasons, donโt bring it to windy or use it in cold weather.

After one Use
Used the tent once so far. It was very quick & easy for just me to set up & take down. Like the design. Plenty of ventilation & room. Only two concerns: 1) the durability of the floor & 2) the light colored tent walls show dirt. I'll be careful to protect the tent floor & wipe down the tent walls.
