Description of NorthPole Junior 6- by 5-Foot Tent

For ventilation, this tent features only the front D-style door with a screen window that only fills half the doorway and a small, ventilated dome top (which measures about 2 square feet). For that reason, we'd be suspect in using this tent in very warm temperatures, as you won't get much of a breeze (if any) while inside. Also, this tent isn't suited to an all-out assault by rain, with just a small rain cover (instead of a full fly) that protects the dome's ventilated square, which is quickly attached using integrated plastic hooks. That said, the water-resistant polyester exterior will shed drizzle and light rain (tested under our extended sprinkler test in our backyard) and keep you covered inside.

A bit of a throwback to simple tent designs of the 70s (with a combination of blue, white, yellow, and maroon colorings to add to this flavor), this tent is a good buy for use in the spring and summer months and will be great as a hideout for the beach or backyard barbecues.
