But for the most part we like it and take both of them camping with every time we go. I think you need to do some redesign on the doors, make them longer or something. I bought two of these tents new last year from a yard sale.
The “frame” barely stayed together on the ground. Any attempt to lift a corner and insert a leg pole resulted in pipes flying everywhere. I thought of resorting to duct tape, but since I had none handy, with great finesse I managed to lift each corner one pipe segment at a time. Some middle sections fell out but I had a standing frame of sorts, swaying and wobbling.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have large screen house and I love it. It gets used very ozark trail chairs hard every summer. It’s starting to wear out and I’m looking to replace but can’t find one anywhere.
We put it back in the bag and said this is so stupid. How do you get a tent with no instructions. Hard to set up for one person. It take 2 people at least to set this screen house up.
For the moment, my dream of an extra room in the back yard has come true. Wish me luck putting it up at the wedding. One mad idea often begets another, ozark trail canopy and that is how this $34.95 purchase came about. As I’ve mentioned elsewhere in the blog, I’m getting married in Joshua Tree on August 2nd, outdoors.
I need to replace the center hub (CTRH-02) since this broke while I was using it. The screening and roof are all in excellent condition, along with all the poles, etc. With two more roof poles, I’m sure this could be prevented. My experience with Ozark Trail equipment has been to reinforce the old adage “you get what you pay for”. I highly recommend that anyone looking for a good screen house spend the additional money and get a Swiss Gear.
