 Eureka Sunrise 8 Adventure 8-Foot by 8-Foot Four-Person Tent By: Eureka Average Rating: 4.5 Total Reviews: 7 More Information Not the easiest tent to put up  On: 2008-07-12Its not complicated to put up - but the reinforcd joints dont easily slide through the tent loops when youre taking it up and putting it down. Its a real pain if youre doing it on your own. If you have help, its not too bad. Otherwise, the tent does the job. Its not a bad tent - just not the quickest assembly and break-down Ive seen. I have two other tents that are much easier. Our first tent  On: 2008-07-02My husband and I purchased this tent for our car camping excursions. We recently took it out for the first trip with friends and it worked great. I watched my friends Coleman tent buckle under the strong winds over and over, but the Eureka was solid in the highest winds. I do advise getting some more heavy duty stakes than the ones included and staking out the fly is a good idea if you foresee any storms. This is perfect for two people and was easy to set up. I also advise a practice run before you head out as this lessens the inevitable debates that occur between couples during tent construction. I look forward to many more uses. One note, this is perfect for a couple, but I think it would be too small for four people. You could add a dog or a small child but thats about all. Looking forward to using soon. On: 2008-05-09I have not used this tent yet. After a couple weeks of reading reviews and comparing products, I decided this one was just right for me and it should be a quality product. Although I didnt realize it until later, my daughter had purchased a similar Eureka tent about four years ago and has used it many times. She said that I did good when selecting because she thinks Eureka is the best. Great Tent On: 2007-10-31This tent has windows that actually zip up! I hate those tents that just have a screen with the fly over it. Be cautious when purchasing a tent if this matters to you. I bought one of those and returned it because there is no way you could stay warm if it got cold. This is a great one-person tent and probably fine for two. Dont even think about 4 people if you have airbeds! I have a double-high twin airbed and there was enough room to put the camping box by my bed to use as a table and a place for my clothes in the corner. I loved it. It was very cozy. I would highly recommend this. We did not have bad weather but Eureka! tents usually hold up well to the elements. Perfect size for two childrens and 2 adults.  On: 2007-08-23Is a great product, good brand, good quality, very easy to build up. The size is very good for two kids and 2 adults, I belive that 4 adults fits very very thight. Have a lot of bags to keep small things but need extra space for the backpacks, and shoes. Great tent! On: 2007-06-25We had great weather all three days, so cant rate its performance under the rain, but the tent was pretty big (it fit 3 adults, and one of us had a twin air mattress) and sturdy. All the pockets and storage shelves for our stuff was great and convenient (much bigger than I expected them to be from the pictures!) Having 4 windows made it really comfortable. Two of us assembled the tent in about 10-15 minutes. Great tent! one terrific tent! On: 2006-08-25this tent is really built! first time out we were in a 12-hour downpour--extremely heavy rain. absolutely no leaks, drippage, or any problem at all. everything was extremely well-sealed right out of the box. the ventilation system is also outstanding--4 very large windows, large ceiling vents and the lower vent in the door panel real helps the air flow! generally very easy to set up with 2 people. this is an outstanding tent--very well constructed, easy up and down, tight, waterproof, and practical. we use it for 2 people. 3 or 4 would be really pushing it, in term of interior space, but its very well suited for 2 adults plus gear. enjoy! |
