The Eureka Tetragon NX 5-person tent has an external frame and these types of tents are generally easier to set up. The tent doesn’t stretch after getting wet but should be stored clean and dry. ![]() Fiberglass is commonly used in more affordable tents due to its cheaper price but is more flimsy compared to aluminum. The main fiberglass poles are 11mm thick while the fly poles are 9.5mm. The mesh is made of 40D polyester no-see-um and will keep all the bugs out, compared to other tents with regular mesh that might let the littlest ones in. The rainfly, floor, and the overall body of the tent are composed of 63D 190T polyester taffeta that will hold up well to moisture. This tent is manufactured for years of reliable use, and high-quality materials are used with reinforced stitching and solid seams. However, this tent was manufactured solely to be used in mild weather, so you should avoid using it in windy places and harsh weather conditions. The “bathtub” floor of the tent is designed in a way that provides protection from splashing and standing water, and the tent’s dome shape doesn’t allow water to pool on the roof. The hooded rainfly of the tent provides excellent waterproof protection even in heavy downpours. The Eureka Tetragon NX 5-person tent is a three-season tent best suited for spring, summer, and fall. On hot nights, you might want to think about leaving the rainfly off to star-gaze and let in some wind. However, the rainfly doesn’t extend to the ground and can let in wind on cold nights, so the interior might get chilly. In addition, the hooded rainfly promotes airflow right into the tent, and the single door has a generous mesh area to keep the air circulating and the bugs out. The tent is surrounded by mesh windows which are 40D polyester no-see-um netting, which promotes excellent air circulation in the tent. You don’t want to be reaching across someone to reach your phone or headlamp! Breathability and Ventilation There could also be more storage pockets considering that the tent is meant for a group or family. There are two storage pockets and a gear loft on the roof, but no vestibules, which means you’ll have to find another spot for your muddy boots and shoes if you run into wet weather. The peak height of 6 feet / 182cm means many folks can stand up and move around or change in the tent! However, like any dome tent, the sloping walls sacrifice a fair bit of space around the sides. With roughly 16.2 square feet / 1.5 square meters per person, it allows for comfortable shoulder room and can hold 5 sleeping pads. With a floor size of 108 in x 108 in (274 cm x 274.3 cm) over a total area of 81 ft² / 7.5 m², the Eureka Tetragon NX 5-person tent is roomy enough for a group of people and gear.
