12'x10' Instant Screen House | Folding and Portable Large Pop Up Canopy Shelter with Included Carry Bag | Perfect for Family Camping, Outdoor, Picnic, Backyards, BBQ, Tailgate, Patio and Party

We previously had a Coleman instand screen tent and wanted a bigger one to fit over the sometimes large tables at campgrounds. This is awesome, room to move around the table and the sides angles aren't as steep as the Coleman so there is better shading and rain cover. It was easy to put up, I was able to do it myself in about 5 minutes, though two people is of course a little easier. The poles could be sturdier but then it would be much heavier and bulkier. For the size it is actually pretty compact and not too heavy. You'd want to stake it down though. The bottom could come down a bit more, there was some gapping but staking it helped. Good purchase.

This is promoted as a screenhouse, and it does that job well. I especially like the 12 x 10 size, which fits campground picnic tables. My camping adventures will be bug free. This was fairly easy to set up. I did not set up before our trip and was caught in the rain trying to set this up (my bad!). Obviously, with any outdoor equipment, it is a good idea to set it up before it is critical, so you can understand it first. I didn't do this. But even in the rain I was able to figure this out and get it set up. It is a complete tarp/pole system that unfolds. I was able to figure it out, but I can understand why other people may get frustrated. NOTE: I ASSuMEd that this would also be weather resistant. It was not. We had a lot of rain on our camping trip, and the rain seeped through the nylon roof and dripped, and the slanted screen sides spattered drops from trees. So this would be fine for a passing shower. But for sustained rain it won't keep the table beneath dry. I think I will need a separate tarp above the screenhouse. If you want something that is both a screenhouse AND a weather/storm tarp, you may want to look elsewhere. In the end , this product worked well, as advertised. Be aware of what is advertised.

Used this screen house on sand under very windy conditions for 3 days and 2 nights. Easy to set up and take down. There is about a 5-10 minute learning curve to the set up and take down the first time. Nice that the set up and take down instructions are attached to the storage bag. The screen mesh openings are small enough to keep most bugs out. Bugs that did get into the screen house came when we entered or left and possibly due to a few gaps between the sand and the base of the house. For securing in sand, you will need much longer tent stakes then the stakes that are included. I already had the stakes since I have camped on sand before. The interior feels spacious and easily accommodated a 72" x 30" folding table and two chairs. I believe the screen house is large enough to accommodate 5-6 chairs around the table. Overall, I'm very pleased that the screen house kept the bugs out, provided shade and did not blow over.

This screen tent is very nice. I have used it a few times now. Very easy to set up. I can do it by myself in about 5 minutes. I usually set it up and then open the screen doors and position it over the table rather than trying to move the table under it. It has very fine screen so keeps bugs out. I have had some bugs in it but I think for the most part they were there in the area where I put the tent and eventually left the grass to the top of the screen tent. Would highly recommend. I have not yet had it in any heavy rain though

I spent tens of hours scouring the web for a screen tent to use as a “dining canopy” while camping. While my husband and I are experienced car campers, this was our first time bringing our preschooler, and she has both an aversion to bugs and strong reactions to bites. We wanted to know that we would have a “safe” space for her. I had a hard time finding any screen house that I felt great about. I wanted one that would fit over the long picnic tables at our state parks, had extra fabric at the bottom to help block below, had relatively straight walls so we didn’t lose a ton of space, and didn’t break the bank. This was one of the few that met those criteria and would arrive in time. We set it up as soon as it came and were happy with the size and relative ease of setup. While camping, we had 4 adults and one 3-year-old regularly going in and out one side for 5 days, and experienced no problems with zippers or snags. The center clip was perfect for our fan/lantern combo, and it was nice to have the gear pocket for things like sunscreen, bug spray, and lighter that we wanted close at hand (but out of reach of 3). Sturdiness seemed great, though our weather was so mild the whole time we never even staked out the guy-lines. As with anything you keep outside, this certainly was not bug or critter-proof, especially when you have people going in and out. However, it certainly helped. A chipmunk and toad both found their way in, presumably by where we’d run an extension cord under, but that’s to be expected in the woods. Overall, we were very happy with this purchase. It fit our needs (and our picnic table) and seems to be well-constructed.

From bagged to built in 1 minute? First time? The answer is YES! The design is ingenious, from lighting to locking and jointed poles. I have been camping for 60 years and looking for this thing since day 1. Camping, reimagined. Want a simple-to-assemble screen tent? Go to the CORE!

The first couple of days I really liked this tent. It was easy to set up and lightweight. However, I got it to keep bugs out, and what it does is keep bugs in. No matter what I’ve done there have been more bugs stuck inside the tent, then I would have had to deal with one an opened sided Canopy. The netting also rips very easily. It works better without the tarp you can put underneath of it. If it rains, the tarp just gathers water. I really wanted to like this product.

Love this tent, really sturdy, fits over a large camp table, it is really big. It is large folded down and took up my entire back seat. I wanted to keep it but I returned it as it is not something I can throw in my car as a backup just in case there are mosquitoes but perfect if you know the conditions.
