Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Alright, So I have always wanted a teepee tent but could not afford one. When I saw this brand new on Ebay for 100.00 bucks free shipping I could not resist it. Okay, So first impressions when I got it setup up and left it out for a couple of days in the backyard to test. 1. What the heck is this cord cause it is not paracord 2. Craftsmanship and build quality over is pretty good it is mass produced 3. Waterproofing was very poor this tipi leaked not bad but leaked everywhere 4. The Stakes were your standard stakes 5. The Center Pole is sturdy and has a chain going through it to hold it together. So I made the following modifications to the teepee tent. 1. Replaced "FAKE Paracord" with good old Made in the US reflective Paracord and foliage. 2. Seamed Sealed and Kiwi Camp Dried it top to bottom 2 coats. (Took about 3 cans) The results well lets just say that did the trick so far no more leaks stands up to high winds well. I have had the Tipi tent now for 6 months and am very pleased with the purchase. After putting in some grunt work to fix the above issues and spending around $30.00 dollars for everything. I hope this might help someone that was on the fence about getting one of these.
