Wanted to like it but...

The first problem I noticed out of box was that the spring hoops that give it its shape may be bent or not installed properly, causing the whole tent to remain in an awkward twisted shape when open. Tried flattening multiple times but no luck. It just doesn't sit nice and upright like the picture. Trying to get it folded back into its case was nearly impossible. I watched the video multiple times following his instructions exactly. It simply did not fold cleanly like the video. It ended up in a bulging mess that barely fit back into the case. Some reviewers appear to be happy with their tent so this one could have been a dud but I am not going for a replacement. Rarely do I return things but this item is going back.
