Exeeded my expectations! Very high quality tent. Three Updates~~~
I have been looking at these bell type tents for over a year now, having a large nylon Tee Pee tent I grew fond of having the space to stand up and walk around in the tent but I wanted something more substantial to better stand up to rough weather.This tent fits a double high queen air mattress a good sized table and chairs and all our stuff with plenty of room to walk all around upright and space to spare. Although it's just for my wife and me, you could easily and comfortably accommodate a family of 5 in it.As someone that has over 50 years camping experience, makes and repairs tents, flies and other camping gear I have a good eye for quality, this tent has a high level of quality and craftsmanship built in.The tent has #10 YKK zippers on the door with metal pulls that operate smoothly and solidly. The polycotton canvas seems more substantial than 100% cotton canvas and I noticed that during the 2 rain storms we've had since putting it up, there is very little sag in the fabric when wet as compared to standard canvas, and not a leak or drip anywhere. The windows have 2 zipper pulls so you can open them 3” or 4” from the top for ventilation and not get rain in.They don't even mention in the ad that it has a fire and mold retardant treatment, something the others charge extra for. The lines are heavy 1/4” line with a silver reflective woven in and substantial tensioning hardware. The stakes look to be 3/8” coated Steel, not something you could bend easily. I like that it doesn't come with a stove jack in it, If I want to put my stove in it I will put it where I want it to be to fit my stove and usage.All the tie outs are double sewn and tied into reinforced joints. Solid all the way around. Somehow the peak vents stay open even in rain and wind.This tent is much more than I expected and, I think much more and perhaps better than equal sized and type of tents selling for hundreds more.I'm very happy.Update - 10/2021 We have had this tent now for 2 1/2 years and have no problems and are still very happy with the decision to purchase the Psyclone tent. There are a few improvements I have made that I would like to share. The rubber suction cup things on the ends of the poles don't work very well. I removed both of them and screwed a piece of wooden dowel in the ends (to get rid of the sharp inner edges) and attached a heavy plastic cup to the top of the pole (see photo, I used the inner bullet-shaped part from the air filter from my E250 Ford van that fit perfectly in the canvas pocket in the peak of the tent, you could also use a rounded 3" PVC end cap) this will distribute the stress evenly around the pocket. For the bottom of the pole, I made an 8" plywood disc, glued some scrap carpet on the bottom and a ring of PVC to the top of the disc. (see photo) Now when putting up the pole, after engaging the peak, I put the bottom of the pole in the plywood disc and can easily slide the pole into the upright position and adjust it with ease without having to lift it each time to move it. This also protects your vinyl floor.The other biggie I did was eliminate the center door guyline by making a small tarp arrangement to hold the door poles up and protect the opened door from any rain and make going in and out easy. The photo shows it all.I love this tent! Buy one, you won't regret it!Update - 9/22 We are still loving this tent, by far the best tent I have ever had. We camp of 3 to 4 weeks a year during the cool months here on the East coast of central FL, last March we camped through a week of rain with some very intense storms with winds gusts approaching 50 mph, the tent sailed right through without ant problems and vary a drop of water inside. A couple time there has water pooling up to 3" deep outside to low side of the tent, still non leaked inside.Oops, sorry about that last photo, that's from the other side of the family!Update, 1/23We are still loving this tent! Recently my wife developed some lower back issues that made sleeping on the air mattress uncomfortable but was fine on the hammock between the trees outside so I bought one of those steel framed hammocks to see if it would fit in the Bell tent and it did with room to spare for her bedside table, even our camping kitty loved it! (see photos)One big addition to our Mr.Heater Buddy was a metal grate to heat water on and the purchase of a thermal electric fan to use on it to move around and even out the heated air in the tent. I was surprised how well it worked. running on low (4000 BTU s) when it was in the mid 30s outside it keep the tent around 60 degrees inside, great sleeping temp. In colder temps I can run it on high (9000 BTU s) but it would use more propane, I can run the heater on low every night for a week on one 20lb tank. (I bring two tanks just in case) We couldn't be more comfortable and accommodated than in this tent, it is like of having a small cabin!

Thick high quality canvas tent
I bought these for an air b and b glamping setup. I set them up at home to weather in the canvas fabric(set up and drench canvas then air dry to seal fibers) and I was very happy with the quality of the product. The canvas felt thick and almost waxy to the touch and no water got inside whatsoever after drenching it for nearly 30 minutes. The stakes are simple but heavy duty and I had no problem using a mallet to pound them into the earth, not a single bend. The instructions online and on the tent were good quality and we will be ordering treatment from psyclone tents to upkeep the tents in the future. I sew canvas boat tops as a side hustle and seeing the stitching as well as the zippers used made me pleased and not worried about the integrity of the construction.Finally, putting the tent away was easy and I did the whole process by myself. The carrying bags for the poles and tent it's self is the same high quality. Thanks guys for making such a great product! It was a huge bonus to buy from the states instead of importing it from China.

We love this and hope it will last for years to come.
Very pleased with this purchase. Bought this to accommodate family during upstate NY family reunion. Have had lots changeable weather….. heavy downpours, some warm stuffy nights and some unexpected cold nights. A queen bed/ box spring, dresser and small table, suitcases fit with room to spare. Electricity provided small lamp, a fan for warm nights and a warm feather coverlet kept the couple very comfortable. It was simple to set up. The yurt is very durable and rainproof (unless you leave a door not tightly zipped). The windows give a wonderful cross breeze. The gravel filled base, built by my SIL, added to stability and drainage with all the rain. Well with the money.

High quality heavyweight canvas bell tent
Set this up for a 4 day camping trip. All the stitching and seams were sewn very well. The center and door frame are also of very good quality. Not flimsy at all. Theres alot of canvas tents on Amazon that claim to be waterproof, weatherproof. Dont be fooled. Most are 285gsm or less. This tent is 340gsm. It has a poly-cotton blend. Ideal for being able to shed off water easily. I hosed the canvas down pretty good once it was set up. Water just rolled right off of it. The pvc floor is super thick. Setting it up took me about 20 minutes. It comes with heavyweight ground stakes. I would recommend this tent in a heartbeat. I purchased this tent with my own money and this is an honest review. If the tent was poor quality I would let you know. But this tent is the real deal when it comes to high quality canvas bell tents. You won't be disappointed.

Love it and really easy to put up
I was 9 months pregnant and put this tent up by myself in about 30mins.. it survived a hail storm that damaged a lot of crops on our farm and didn’t pool any water in the torrential downpour after. I’d say it’s worth the money. It fits a queen airmattress on any side of the pole. We adore it and are hoping to eventually rent it out.
