Product Description
The Taurus is a simple 2-pole freestanding dome tent that is enhanced with 2 doors and 2 vestibules, which is probably why it's been our best selling tent model for the last several years. Assembly is really easy with the tent clips that just snap in place over the shock corded fiberglass or aluminum poles. The polyester fly and nylon floor are urethane coated, with factory sealed seams for maximum weatherproofness. The 2 doors make getting in and out of the tent much easier, especially in the middle of the night when you need to take a quick "break". You also get 2 vestibules (one over each door) that you can use for extra gear storage. The vestibules also serve as automatic guy-out points when the weather gets a little nasty. The fly buckles to the tent, offering a much more secure attachment when compared to elastic cord. We have added vents to the fly so you get even better ventilation. Mesh roof vents increase ventilation and improve star gazing. Mesh storage pockets and a gear loft are included for organizing your stuff. Stakes and guy ropes are included. Polyester Taffeta Fly. 3-Season Tent.

Customer Reviews
Average Customer Review: Write an online review and share your thoughts with other customers. Jakub J. from Dublin, IrelandBought this tent when I visited Seattle last year. I used the tent in harsh weather conditions in Ireland, Scotland and England. The tent is a perfect shelter for two persons regardless of the weather. I had no problems while outside was raining (heavy showers) and wind gust was reaching 70km/h. Great value for money!
Moira S. from Denton, TXThis tent is well-made, very easy to set-up and quite roomy. It is stable in 25-30 mph wind even without tie lines. We have not tried it in wet weather though but I expect it will perform well, too. Overall, a great buy!
Steven D. from Tucson, AZI have ordered this to use on motorcycle camping trips. and haven't used it yet. I have set it up in house. It was easy and quick setup. It is light weight but the material appears strong. I own an older dome tent from same company that has held up for well over 10 yrs but too heavy/bulky for motorcycle camping. Expect this to last at least 10 yrs.
