Any issues with that seam on the bottom? Did you use the footprint when it was raining?

5-8lb is ridiculous for a "backpacking" tent. For $80 not sure what else is out there though. If it's quality, seems like a good deal for a car camping tent.

I’d consider this more a car camping tent. And NTK makes better rents around this price. https://ntkglobal.com/products/cherokee-gt-3-4-family-camping-tent/

The NTK tent has fiberglass poles and polyester fabric. Those are much cheaper, inferior materials. The NTK tent is not better by any means.

I put the corner stakes through the loop on the rainfly, the tent loop, and the footprint loop. Stake all three with the same stake; worked well.

I got this tent as well and also thought it was unusual to set up. I ended up returning it but on the rainfly, did you just strap it onto the poles where the tent attaches to the poles?

Any word on the quality of this tent? can't seem to find any reviews.
The weight is good at around 5lbs. Constructions seems solid. Are the materials durable?

Eh debatable. That's as thick as many ultra light tents. It is thin for it's weight, I agree. but should be durable enough with being careful. Many ultra lights are 20D.

The Q&A also says the packed weight includes the second set of stakes as well. Still too heavy for what it is. If you're on an under $100 budget, there are ozark tents that weight less.
