  • Alps Mountainering Taurus 4AL

    I have been looking for several months for a tent to fit my needs. I am a Scout leader that needs a tent that will be easy to set up, & light weight for one night trips. Also I needed to be able to fit my son if need be or my wife if she decides to go. I also needed something that as my son's trips get bigger, as he advances in Scouts that I could back pack with as well. And with out saying, protection from the elements and not be overly expensive. I am like most fathers who get involved with Scouts meaning I am not going to want something that I have to crawl around in. I wanted something with some head room as well. We are not as young as we used to be. This is a tall list of wants,and I tried several brand name tents simply in my back yard. I bought and sent back two with great reviews. However this tent fits all my needs and is high quality. I have not read one negative review on this tent or any other tent, or products they make. My first trip was in heavy rain, not a drop in my tent, or in my boots in the vestibule! Great product! A little heavy for the back packing trips, but it will work. I am not complaining! I read these reviews as you are & will not buy a product with out one. I hope this helps.They are also a Scout friendly company.Overstock was also very easy to deal with.

  • Great tent.

    This is a very nice tent. I probably should have purchased a 3 person tent but other than that this is perfect. Great quality and easy to put up. It is also very durable. I had it in high winds and this tent was solid as a rock.

  • Quality Tent, Good Price

    This tent sets up quickly and seems to be constructed very well. It's sized perfectly for two people and their gear. It's also fairly light weight and packs up pretty small. Overall good product for the money.

  • Superb tent!

    My daughter and I purchased this tent to use at Bonnaroo, a big music festival. We really didn't want to deal with camping inconveniences, and this tent was PERFECT! We based our selection on other reviews, and the high praise this tent got was warranted! It was spacious and well vented and easy to set up- it was also very aesthetically pleasing!

  • Fit for a Queen (Bed)

    The ten is large enough for a queen-sized air mattress. It comfortably fits two people with space for gear. The two doors and vestibules make it easy to get in and out while leaving dirty or muddy boots outside of the tent. It's easy to setup, take down, and store in the ample storage bag.It's easier to see out of the "windows" than it is for anyone to see in. This is truly a three season tent. The tub style floor is adequate for the job, but if you want something that will hold-up for a scout troop or particularly rough and tumble types, use a tarp (or footprint) or purchase the more expensive Outfitter version.

  • Taurus 4 AL Tent

    I researched several tents for motorcycle camping before I decided to buy this tent for the price and quality. After I used the tent for camping aver the recent memorial weekend, I was very satisfied with the ALPS Taurus 4 AL. First this tent is very easy to set up and of good quality, The only problem I had with the tent was when I didn't zip one of the rain fly doors and that night we had a large storm come through with lots of rain, my side of the tent stayed dry but my wifes side with the unziped fly got wet. But other than that this is a good tent for the money.
