Easy to set up. Light weight for such a large family tent. Two doors and quality construction and zippers.
Dislikes:
Rain fly does not completely cover doors.

Easy to set up for a large family tent. Good zippers and solid construction.
Dislikes:
The poles are aluminum (a plus) but they bend if not set up carefully. The rain fly does not completely cover the doors. I haven't used it in a heavy downpour yet, but it may leak with a strong cross wind rain.

This tent is great for family camping. This tent replaced our 4 person REI tent, which we loved but got too cramped with the growing family. My husband is able to stand up in the middle of the tent no problems. Since we camp with Cub Scouts a few times a year we wanted a tent that our 2nd grader & myself could put together without my husbands help (he is normally off helping the other families that never camp put up their tents). The two of us could get the tent up in under 10 minutes. It is very roomy inside, we fit a queen and twin air mattress with room to still have our gear at the foot of the air mattresses. Once the tent was staked down and we added the rain fly it was very secure.
Dislikes:
My only complaint is I can not get the tent back into the bag it came with. But I have never had luck with that camping. We purchased a plastic bin that holds our tent & air mattresses so that is what we pull out of the car and store all our stuff in. If you are good at oragami you can probably get your tent back in the bag, but other than that I am super happy with the purchase.

perfect size for our needs. Fit four boys for short trips and two with plenty of room for gear on long trips. love the feature of two doors. this is a huge plus for Scout camping since many of the camps require two doors in black bear country. Easy set up and great ventilation.
Dislikes:
inability to cover the mesh above the doors in windy cooler weather.

Wow! Okay, I haven't been camping in 15 years, but tents have gotten really tall. My 6'1" SO can stand up in this one. We haven't actually slept in it yet, but set up is pretty straight forward, SO and 2-year old had no problems. If it's windy, you'll need two people (probably someone older than 2). Feels spacious and appears to be well sealed.
Dislikes:
Nothing, so far
