To this tent or on a ridge hike overnight and it stood up to 25mph winds. We also got rained on and inside was completely dry. The tent is a little on the heavy side weighting over 5 lbs but it's not too bad considering it's a 2 person tent.

Great tent for the price. I enjoy motorcycle camping and i need to be able to pack light and be ready for any weather condition and have shelter. I used this tent recently and it held up to a very strong thunderstorm that lingered for an hour with intense heavy down pour. With the rain fly on, zipped and secured, i didn't even think twice about the wind, I felt nothing. Didn't have any worries about gettin wet either.

This tent packed up in its bag, fit in my backpack a little better than the one person tent that I've been using, just a litter wider. Although i found this bag when searching up backpacking tents, i think this tent is a bit heavy if you plan to hike with this in your back pack. There was a very noticeable difference in weight when compared to my single person tent. I wasn't expecting the additional yards of material to make that much of a difference.

The tent is roomy. I am 6'1 and the length of the tent is sufficient. Still had room to spare for a pillow if you have one. I was able to have all my gear in the tent with me including my portable chair and I laid down comfortably.

Setup was a breeze, they created a great design with the poles. It's basically a one piece pole and it's idiot proof. Couldn't have been easier, straight to the point. My one person tent is more of a process than this tent. The provided stakes are good enough if you don't beat on them. They fit the points in the material perfectly so if you have stakes that you bought separately, make sure they are compatible (especially with the rain fly)

The zippers, and the way the tent seals up was the way I'd expectevery tent to seal, i had zero bugs/ants in my tent and i was surrounded by ant hills and little bugs with wings.

All in all, highly recommended if weight isn't a huge factor for you. And again, this review is only after one 3 continuous days of use, I'll have to wait and see how many trips this thing can survive. I take care of my things and treat them gently though, so my experience may vary from others who might be rough and careless

Oh, and i saw in other reviews mentioning the base of the tent being thin or what have you... i didn't see much difference from this tent to others I've had. I literally swept the area my tent was going to be placed with my feet, clearing rocks and sticks and the base of the tent was a non factor.

Used for camping off my adventure bike. Packs down nice and small, plenty of room for myself and gear inside. But most importantly it was fast and easy to set up.

We bought this to replace a Wallmart special. My son and I were preparing to hike the Cabinet Mountains in Montana and we needed a new small-ish tent. I am frugal and tend to gravitate toward budget friendly items. Queue this wonderful tent. This tent might not be the lightest nor the most durable in construction but it is perfect for our needs. At just over 5 pounds we were able to split the weight between our back packs to share the load and it was not a burden. Our third night at Lower Cedar Lake gave us gusts probably around 40-50mph and a downpour that lasted about 2.5 hours. We stayed comfortable and dry!

Just to note that a single camper can put their gear inside but two people better be prepared to leave their packs out of the tent. The vestibule/rainfly is great for shoes/boots but little else.

Things we really liked about it:
Comfortable length for a 6ft tall person with a few extra inches at head and foot.
Just wide enough for 2 people. You could possibly sardine 3 people in there together but you would not be comfortable.
Loved the built in corner pockets (4 of them for phone, nose rags, chapstick and the like) and the center hanging pouch for other bulkier loose items (flashlight, keys, etc).
The bottom of the tent is a tarp type material that is extended up the sides. No leaks or pools when it rained!
Rainfly is a FULL rainfly! Not a drop of water touched the main tent.

Things that could be improved (maybe):
There is a center hook in the top of the tent for hanging a small lantern/light however if you put the pouch up you can't really use it.
The tarp/bottom of the tent seems kinda thin. I dont know how durable it is. I suspect of you have a rock or stick or growth under the tent you might end up with a hole in the bottom.
The rainfly could possibly be made with a darkening material? With the sun out it got quite bright/warm inside. Luckily it has good airflow.

Overall a very nice budget tent that worked amazing.

I needed something to strap on the rack of my gravel bike, as I wanted to start doing solo tours around my home state (MI) and slowly expanding to other states if I enjoyed it after my first few outings. I wasn't about to spend half the price of my bike buying a tent, though. The nice thing about bikepacking over backpacking is the weight isn't as important on the bike; you have two wheels to help spread the weight distribution around. As I prefer "groomed" trails like the numerous rails-to-trails around us, I'm not hitting soft sand or mud much at all, so I decided to go for "best bang for the buck" equipment to start out, and upgrade to lighter stuff next year if needed.

After watching tons of YT vids on the "best" tents to buy for this type of trekking, I came across a couple of vids which has decent things to say about Forceatt tents. I read up some more online and found that what everyone reported as pros and cons made a lot of sense, and for the price I decided the pros added up quite well on paper. I opted for the larger 3-person tent, as I was looking to stash my pannier bags and other items inside; MI has been quite a mix of rain and sun the past month, and October looks to be more of the same. Better to be dry and cold than wet and anything else!

I come from decades of camping with a family of four, and before I was married I toted around early dome-style tents for years while camping and canoeing with friends. The build quality of larger and/or older tents is quite different from these newer double-wall tents. I feel like newer tents are made more for handling ease-of-assembly issues and ventilation, where older tents are made to handle unknowns better (such as rain). Maybe that's me, just an opinion... :)

With that in mind, some thoughts:
1) This tent has a much thinner floor/pan than older tents. Make sure you get an under-floor or tarp to help protect it!
2) The Forceatt tent went up very easily, and didn't require instructions at all (but they are there! Look in the large bag, they should be printed on a big tag sewn inside). Hints on setup below.
3) It's possible to leave the fly/outer wall off, if you're certain you'll have no rain AND if the air is quite dry. Remember that once the sun goes down, the moisture in the air can drop almost like a fine rain (especially in the fall in the Midwest US states!), so you don't want everything in your tent to get damp before you even get in!
4) I had this up in the rain the other night, which was light but steady and lasted almost six hours. Not a drop inside the pan, but the fly underside was quite damp to the touch. I'll be adding some Nikwax waterproofing to the fly this week while I have it up again, just to make sure I stay dry as possible.
5) The vestibules at either door are... barely vestibules. If you're going to use them to put your boots/shoes outside the tent proper (or anything else for that matter), bring along a light-weight kitchen garbage bag to protect anything you leave in those areas. I found each morning that the grass I pitched on was damp under those areas because of the gap around the entire fly area (it's not designed to be touching the ground because of airflow).
6) The 3-person tent has a ton of room for two people to be comfy. For one person, it's close to luxurious! One of my pics shows my Klymit Insulated Static-V Luxe (30" W) in the center of the pan, and there is a ton of space around all sides. If two people had 24" W pads or smaller, they'd fit fine. Probably would have room at their heads for stuff, too.
7) 3-season description is accurate, but untested by me. Two nights ago I slept in it with a regular old-school synthetic filled sleeping bag (waiting for my new UGQ quilt to be built). It got down to 39F on a very clear night. The tent was perfectly dry inside, very wet outside from condensation drop, but it was not windy at all (so I can't guarantee it'll stand up to 30+MPH winds yet). It was quite cold in the tent all night, and I think some of that comes from the large amount of airflow in the overall design of newer tents in general. The thinking now is: it's better to be cold and dry than damp and cool. This tent is good for cold/dry, for sure. Make certain your sleeping bag/quilt and pad can handle the cold you're going to see! Bring extra clothes or a wool blanket if you have doubts.

For those looking for help setting it up, it's actually a very simple tent to raise compared to many I've owned. I followed the instructions and had no problems:
Leave the floor unstaked when putting the metal ribs in place, then you can slide it around to get perfect placement. Stake the four corners, put the cover in place, clasp it to the corners, then put the other stakes in place. At the doors, zip them up before staking, and only stake the left side (why there's a loop on both side of each door, I dunno). There's supposed to be a couple-inch gap for air flow, it's OK. Finally, make sure to let out the small vents once everything's staked down (the points with the little velcro 4" pieces); that's important for letting out condensation from occupants breathing while sleeping.

The thickness of the polyester fabric is quite nice, but only time will tell if it's actually durable. Again, I didn't buy this for ultralight backpacking trips, nor to do camping trips out in the heavy woods, so my needs are not necessarily yours. But from what I've seen, you could do far worse than this Forceatt tent for light-to-medium use or as a "feeler" tent to see if you like camping/bikepacking. It's fairly heavy but worth a good look!
