It will let you down at the time you need it most. Had to spend a year one week, in a WW2 Japanese dug out, made of drift wood, on Unimak Is. Fierce storm destroyed the Cabelas Tent. Poles snap and go through the fabric, the zippers fail when wet and sand gets in the teeth. The zipper fabric stretches and the teeth fail to interconnect. Any tent with the small toothed zippers will fail. If you buy a tent with them, take them to a seamstress and have the zippers replaced with quality zippers, with BIG Teeth.
