Pitched Kelty Green River 6 tent up for the first time in my back yard today.
Stretched and laid out the four poles as instructed.
Mistaken the fly cover for the tent and couldn't find the holes and which was the top or bottom side of tent.
(Strange how nothing match the instruction?) Oh, there is another material inside the bag and it turn out to be the tent. The bigger wrapped material was the fly cover.
Now I'm in business. Orientated the tent on the footprint and there I go. It was easy to put up by myself. However, it took an little imagination and resourcefulness to get the fly cover over the top of the tent. Got it by using a rope attached to the fly and throwing the rope over the tent to the back side.
Tent has a lot of snaps and tie downs, but it looks great. Wife came out from the house to checked it out. She loves the roomy tent and height with storage compartments.
The next time it will take me less time to put up, now that I am familiar with it. Piece of cake.

This tent is great but LARGE!! It says 6 person tent and must mean 6 really big people. If you are bringing it camping and need to fit it on a site with another tent - you may have a problem doing so - ours barely fit on the campsite with our friends. On the flip side, it holds everyone and everything - we fit a queen air mattress, 2 single air mattresses and had plenty of room to spare for all of our other belongings not to mention the front porch area that gives even more space. This tent stayed completely dry - not a drop of water in it through 2 major thunderstorms with gusting wind,etc. I would highly recommend this tent.

Well, My wife and I like going camping, but room and comfort is always a priority. We used to use my parents huge cabin tent, old style type, with solid poles and canvas walls. But that tent weighed about 50 lbs. So when we were looking for a tent we wanted room, especially since we were going to go with a 3 month old and would need enough space for a pack N Play. THis tent was kind of the middle ground for what we were looking for, so we went with it. It is tough to say how great tents are these days especially since now they make the floor witht he same material as the walls, and to me, is just not as durable as the good ol' days with the "tarp" style floors I grew up with, now a days you have to put the footprint down first. So we got this tent and went on a NH trip in the mountains this past July. we had a great site, in the mountains near Lost river. the tent was easy enough to set up but 2 people make it easier just because of the size. Now as for how it performed. the first night we had 3 torrential thunderstorms in a row, and we were kept dry. the next day it rained on and off and then we had another torrential thunderstorm, and a small seem on the rain fly started to leak a little into the vestibule, but was minor (I had yet to seal the seams, as you should to make it waterproof!) So after 5 heavy thunderstorms, with almost 2-3 inches of rain. the tent worked better than I expected. I have now seam sealed all the rainfly seams, and sprayed the tent with Silicone tent water proofer, mostly because I am paranoid... Overall it is a good tent. I would recommend it if you plan on camping in mountians or cooler temp camping ie. fall, because I had it set up in the sun in the back yard to waterprrof it and it got really toasty inside! Just wish tent companies still made their tents with heavy duty tarp floors!

I was looking for a tent roomy enough to fit a family of 4 but also provide complete rain fly coverage. This tent fits the bill perfectly. The inside is extremely spacious, helped by very high ceilings. There was no problem sleeping 2 adults and 2 kids inside this tent. The vestibule (my favorite part of the tent) is huge, and housed 7 adults (standing, mind you) seeking shelter from a quick rainstorm.
The set-up is as easy as any tent I have seen. Two people can easily tackle the set-up, but I have done it by myself a few times without any hassle. In high winds, however, make sure you have at least 2 sets of hands as the height of this tent makes it susceptible during set-up (and only during set-up). The corded poles can separate when trying to take down the tent, but compared to my last two tents this task is MUCH easier. These poles are much better constructed than the more flimsy ones of cheaper brands.
I have only had one rain to test this tent out in, and it was not a long event. I had seem sealed the rear seem (the one part of the tent the rain fly does not cover) and did a rough job all around the floor/wall seem (as others have suggested, this should have been factory taped). After the rain, I literally had 5 drops of rain insde the tent. It appears to have come through the floor/wall seem where the rain fly did not cover. After returning home, I sealed this seem again (I did a quick job the first time around) and do not expect any further problems.
Lastly, as an earlier reviewer stated, the footprint does not include the vestibule. I would suggest a small throw rug/tarp for the vestibule that is NOT attached to the main footprint/tarp. Since the vestibule is not totally rainproof (the blinds do flap in the wind a bit) some water might come in during an intense rain storm. If your vestibule tarp is attached to the main tent tarp, water could run down underneath your tent (depending on slope, of course). It is probably best to leave a few inches between the two to prevent this from happening.
All in all, this tent was well worth the money. After an exhaustive search, it had everything I wanted at a relatively low cost.

Just used this for our first camping trip - big 1 room tent - so if you don't have to have more than one room this is a great tent - the vestibule is a great mud room/storage area, which frees up the inside for sleeping & stuff - we fit a queen mattress, 2 small kids sleeping bags and a pack n play inside and still had extra room... rained the first night - all night - not a drop inside, just condensation. Be aware that the vestibule is not part of the Kelty "footprint" for the tent, so make sure you have a big tarp for the whole tent, or an extra tarp for just the vestibule. Overall a great one room family tent, water tight, spacious, easy to put up - looking forward to using it again.
