Fun while it lasted

This was a little hard to put together as it didnt have instructions with it. Once I figured it out though my child and our dog loved it. They both would just sit in it and were even sleeping in it for a while. This didnt last long though it broke with in a few weeks beyond repairs. So found it's way to the trash.

I was actually surprised at the size of this tent, it was much bigger than I thought it'd be and for comparably priced items was also bigger. You could easily fit some small furniture and host a four child tea party inside this thing. 2 adults sitting could fit inside. It is quite lightweight as well, which means it's easily moveable, though you may want to weight down the base if you put it outside as it might not be heavy enough to resist a swift wind.

For me the one downside was the lack of instructions, while it's not incredibly difficult to assemble, you'll run into trouble if you (like me) build the frame before and then attempt to apply the fabric. You must build the frame inside the fabric as you go along.

One thing that impressed me was that the fabric is designed to have covers for each of the exposed frame poles, which makes it look much prettier. I also like that you can leave the curtains down for a gauzy, bug resistant palace, or tie them back prettily.

One of the best-designed play-tents I've seen and certainly the biggest. I think any child would be happy to play in this and it works perfectly for outdoors or if you have a large sized playroom.
