Pros & Cons
Pros
The rain fly pole is a bit of a pain to put together. The stakes are l shaped, and worked ok for the tent, which doesn't really need them anyhow.
This makes it sooo easy to put up. It is lightweight and easy to take down. It's also easy to set up so our 7 yr old daughter enjoyed helping get it set up each evening.
Just purchased the kelty arcadia 4. It can get the job done repeatedly, those minor quirks aside.
Main tent poles are wrapped fiberglass. Only true complaint is that the poles are bent along the contour of the tent. It hasn't affected functionality.
The tent some gear pocket big enough for a wallet and cell phone. Perfect for 2 adults car camping. I'm a motorcycle camper and pull a trailer, so having a place to store wet gear is great.
Cons
This is absolutely the lamest rainfly design i've ever seen. The fiberglass poles are terrible. The floor has a seam that runs down the middle of the floor.
Highlights
Quality
I highly recommend this tent to anyone who wants the quality of kelty backpacking tents but without the need for the compact form.
It sets up quickly and easily with the pole clips.
The stakes that come with the tent are quite flimsy.
I was looking for a good quality tent that had a vestibule.
Price
Extras: additionally, the matching footprint sold separately is very nice and well worth the cost.
Overall good tent at a good price so far.
Shipping
Found it for $99 + free shipping.

It rained four of the five days we were there and no moisture got into the tent

Probably could get four people inside but nothing else

I finally just put the fly on without the rod and then was able to find the rod pocket and pockets the tips go into
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I was able to get the rod through and the tips in while over the enclosure but that would have been much easier on the ground before it was over the enclosure

I used this tent in warmer weather and ventilation is soso less than i expected with so much screen
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
What i do not like about the vestibules is that to get to the zipper and exit from inside the tent you have to reach way down into a little angled corner by the ground to unzip the vestibule
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
This is just the way vestibules like this are designed though

Just not my favorite thing and kind of a pain when youre camping in mud
