Perks
These tents offer lots of space for families and groups. The spread-out design of the three tents offers more privacy than interior walls in a large cabin tent. The separate tents also allow flexibility in camping with different-sized groups. Many campers opt to sleep in the two satellite tents and use the central tent for storage.
Sacrifices
The waterproofing is less than optimal. While the rain flies and the waterproofing will shed water, any contact with the sides of the tent will cause immediate seeping. The underside of the tunnels between tents is not waterproofed, requiring a ground sheet. The small rain flies offer limited protection in heavy weather.
Bottom Line
This 3-dome tent is a good idea that is not executed well. While this tent is roomy and cheap, it realistically requires tarps for additional waterproofing above and below, making it more expensive and less convenient.
