Great shelter, found at dunhams for 200$, better quality than Eskimo,
Amazon Customer•October 23, 2016
Great shelter, I've used it 2 seasons now and have had zero problems, I've hade it on the lake when the winds kicked up over 45 mph. I thought the thing was going to blow into pieces , but to mine and my buddy's suprise it held up well, three grown adults is a good fit, any more would be a bit cramped, the ovel doors are nice,, only two negatives are only 4 anchors included and you need a small tarp on top if it rains, seems leak pretty bad in any amount of rain. It would have got 5 stars if it was water tight, but no hub I've been in so fare is, no biggy small tarps are cheap.

We fished with 3 adults (everyone is over 6') & one 7 year old in the shanty & everyone was comfortable. The bag is made real st

After looking at all others I decided on the WD6500 because there were no negative reviews.
I have used this shelter 6 times & every time the wind has been between 25 to 35 mph & have had ZERO problems (Do buy some more anchors)
As with all shelters. "Anchor a corner with the wind 1st" & you will have no problems.

The bag is made real strong & roomy. I actually took the bus with the shelter on my back with no problem.
I'm 52 years old & back pack this shelter to were ever I go because it is so light. It's a very good shelter that I would buy again.
I only paid $200.00 w/free shipping from another site.

UPDATE; Go Thermal!!! I bought an Otter xth pro cabin (thermal hub) & it stays very warm on the coldest days. I do not have to run the heater most of the time & I do NOT get the condensation dripping on me or the freezing like I did in the Shappell. The Shappell is big & built strong but I will never go back to NON insulated.

WH6500 ice hut
cusfly1•January 24, 2014
I bought this ice hut at fleet farm in Green Bay WI. I like it easy to put up for one person. Lots of room..
Only one thing I don't like is that they only send 4 ice hold down stakes.. U need at least 8 if the wind is blowing.. To hold the hut sides from collapsing in on you.. Even in a 10 mph wind..
If u use 8 stakes u can put this hut up in a stuff wind and it stays put.. I have had mine in a 25 mph wind. I was impressed.. It's made quite well.
U can buy extra stakes at fleet farm or walmart for $3.50 for a set of 2. I called the mfg. and ask to get more but they said they only send 4 if I want more to buy them.. So I did..
