Big Agnes Big House 6 - Six Person Tent Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)PROS:Relatively easy set up, 90 sq. ft. of interior space, height of the tent allows everyone to stand up inside, nice duffel to store and carry the tent, large optional vestibule for cooking and storing gear(64 st. ft.!), 12 all-around mesh pockets inside the tent to stow away everything, mesh around the entire perimeter and top of the tent - fly can also be folded up half way for 360 degree views with weather protection of the fly for top 2/3 of the tent, skylight for star gazing even with the fly on.

CONS:Pole for back awning is difficult to insert into the grommets - we had to aggressively bend ours to fit!No full fly for front and back doors so we are concerned about water leakage in a heavy storm.Only provided 4 guylines even though we need at least 2 more to properly stake down the fly.(We can obviously buy more guylines but it's still annoying that Big Agnes would skimp on guylines!)

WISH LIST (Hope you are listening, Big Agnes):"Zip-offable" vestibules for the front and the back doors.This will provide the added weather protection but also allow for more ventilation when no vestibule is needed.(We bought the optional vestibule which attaches to the front door but the back door is still exposed.)

BOTTOM LINE:The Big House 6 is a great tent for our family of four for mostly warm weather car camping. We can fit a pack 'n play and 3 sleeping bags in the tent without any problems.The abundance of mesh on the tent body is great for warm weather camping and beach going.(The tent is airy and open enough to use as a beach cabana.)On the other hand, with the abundance of mesh, the tent may be too chilly for true 3 season camping.Thus, it is an excellent tent for car camping during warm weather where comfort and ease of set-up are your key criteria in selecting a family tent.
