This tent is amazing and gigantic! It's actually pretty easy to set up after the first time of figuring it out. It's extremely helpful when posting the center pole to have one person on the inside to guide it up and another person at the end of it to basically run it in and up. I like all the windows and being able to unzip the entire bottom and pull up the sides. The zippers weren't my favorite but I can see that they made them the way they did so they weren't deteriorate. It's easier to zip if you're inside the tent as opposed to outside.Also, the chimney hole was pretty tight for the size they said so we really struggled getting the pipe through, but it's probably better than it being too big.It's so much nicer than a nylon tent, it does lessen the noise quite a bit from the outside. We've had nights in a nylon tent where the wind was blowing so hard the top of the tent was at our noses but this canvas tent doesn't even move. You can barely hear the wind.We haven't been able to use our wood burning stove yet due to fire restrictions set early but we did use a small buddy heater in the tent and it definitely heated up quickly and kept the heat for quite a while. We have the 20ft tent and sleep 6 plus our dog and could probably play soccer in there as well. It's huge. We love this tent and hope to have it forever.
