If you buy a lot of milsurp gear for camping (rucksacks, bivys, ponchos etc.) that is worn or weathered that approach can help improve the waterproof-ness.
Another related tip: you can sew with dental floss to reinforce seams or repair holes and gashes. The nylon is stronger than most thread and the wax helps it slide through nylon or polyester (common on hiking/camping gear) without much trouble. Finishing a stitch can be done with a drop of super-glue (which was originally designed to seal gashes and small wounds on humans). Floss is great for your emergency pack also: cleans your teeth, repairs gear, and stitches gashes on your person. Super-glue also: can help seal small wounds, repair small damage to gear, etc.
I like to have 2 extra people "capacity" and the door for gear and room to change and what not. This is fine for 2 people, except all the comments about it not being waterproof. That's a must on a tent. Haha
I've bought what I'm pretty sure is this exact tent for a friend that sometimes goes with us on a deal a couple years ago. It's holding up great as well over three trips (and no trouble getting it back in the bag as somebody else mentioned), although it's never been tested in bad weather.

If you're are big time camper, sure drop a few hundred bucks on a tent. But if you're camping a handful of times a year, this is perfectly fine.
The sleeping bags, it's a hit or miss. I've used cheap ones that were nice. And I've used cheap ones that felt like sleeping in plastic wrap.
As far as the tent goes, it's probably ok. If you leave the fly off it's probably not as balmy. The issue is if you close all the mesh for rain, it will become extremely damp inside fom exhalation. by the pictures, it appears the mesh only goes down half way. which means it will be warmer(no moving air across the body) but that isn't a good thing in the summer. the other mesh may be adequate to remove condensation to the outer layer.
Just make sure to check the weather before you go. And don't go too far from your car

My dad is a great man but we were dirt poor and he hunted and fished every weekend to put food on the table for a family of 4. He was and still is, the greatest outdoorsman I will ever know. So if you can't afford an expensive tent, get a cheap one like this and go to Walmart and buy a can of heavy duty scotch guard. Put your tent up in the yard and spray every single inch of it and then leave it to dry overnight. In the morning, spray the seam areas and around the zipper area again and let it sit out till that afternoon and then pack it up. It will be good for about a year before it needs respraying.
I can't tell you how many nights we spent in one of those cheapo wally world tents. I remember camping out on sandbars on the Red River and catfishing all night long with Kenny Rogers, Waylon and Willie on the radio. I think of all the nights we spent in the deer or squirrel camp and roasting a hot dog over the fire while my dad cleaned his gun for the next mornings hunt. Yeah, we always had cheap camping gear but the memories we made will last a lifetime. I can afford anything I want now but don't let anyone tell you that you can't camp in a cheap tent. I'm living proof that it not only can be done, but you can stay dry and make lifetimes of memories doing it.
If you can afford better go for it but if you can't, then grab this and take your kids camping. Make some memories of your own. Just don't forget the bug spray if your from the south, cause sometimes it's more important than the tent lol
