Sleep Any Time In Here!
First, if you’re looking for a tent that keeps the light out, this tent does. Really well, in fact even our kid slept in longer instead of rising with the sun. Nap time or early bedtime would not be a problem as it really does keep most of the light out. The space is plenty for 3-4 people. There are room dividers which you can use to create semi-private spaces within the tent. Cons are few; the stakes are a little flimsy, but can easily be replaced. The room dividers aren’t sewn in, so you’ll need to attach each time (only takes a minute). Water will start to pool on the fabric or get inside if the rain is heavy or ongoing. The setup is similar to a traditional dome style tent but given the length it’s easier to have two people setup.

Spacious tent, effective black out material, with small issues.
I received the 9 Person Extended Dome Blockout Tent 16' x 9' from Influenster for free in exchange for my honest review. Overall, I was pleased with this tent. If you are actually planning to sleep 9 people in a tent it may be tight, however I think it is large enough to fit two queen air mattresses with room to walk up the middle. With all of the windows closed, it was very dark. It comes with an air vent on each side to let air in. I will say that it does get a little hot inside the tent if all of the windows and doors are closed. One issue I ran into was when I was staking the tent into the ground, one of the stakes caused a rip in the tent, on the first use. Some of the stake locations are reinforced, but not all of them and this one could have benefitted from more reinforcement. Also, this tent definitely requires two people to set up and good luck trying to get it to fit back into the original storage bag. If not for the rip I would have given this a better rating. Thankfully the hole was small and the tent includes a patch kit, so I was able to repair it.

Hi Hughk, Thank you for your detailed review! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the tent’s spaciousness and Blockout Technology for added darkness. For the best comfort, we recommend this tent for up to 4 people plus gear; it can technically fit 9 people based on industry standards, but it may feel tight with that many occupants. We understand that airflow and heat management are important, especially when fully closed. We’re sorry to hear about the rip during setup and agree that added reinforcement in all stake areas would be beneficial. Thank you for sharing your honest feedback—it helps us improve. If you need further assistance, please reach out at 1-888-775-5628 or help@coreequipment.com.

So spaceous - 6 feet tall I can stand in it.
If you are considering other tents, just stop. This is the one. It is very simple and quick to assemble. It is a “block out” tent which blocks out the sunlight but you can also unzip the “windows” for a natural light effect, too! While I was setting this up I noticed the material is high quality and it is a very well made tent that is built to last. It is not flimsy and it was pretty windy but the tent was not phased by it. I am over 6 feet tall and as you can see I can actually stand up in the tent which is such a luxury. It can fit 9 people easily. My family size is three so this tent is going to be nice and spacious. This is hands down the best tent I have owned and I am ecstatic to use it this summer. Such a good price point and exceeds my expectations! Thanks for making such a great quality tent!!!
