I was surprised at how easy the tent went up. Normally when a product is purchased there are always some kind of little flaws in how the product works. This is not the case with Kodiak tents. 1st time assembling the tent it still only took 20 minutes. The price, the sewing, the zippers, assembly time, the quality and the added design was great. Just about everything you could think you need in a tent, Kodiak designed it the way it should be.
