ll bean northern guide tent review
We just purchased this tent and were startled to find it leaking badly through the floor seams. Yes we did have the fly underneath it, purchased separately. : ). Our sleeping bags got quite wet. All this with very carefully pitched tent. No water pooling under tent. I think we. got some moisture through the vents above as well. Not up to previous lL bean standards

Nice size. Easy to set up.
Easy to set up. Similar to past Pine Dome tent but without the screen room.

Sturdy car camping tent
Pros: Ease to enter and exit. Roomy and almost stand-up height. Very weather tight. Can close the fly vents from inside when the rain starts. Sturdy floor fabric and good aluminum poles. Color is a nice shade of green.
Cons: No screen on the back door is a design flaw, I bought a screen device and added it. Somewhat challenging for 1 person to set up but can be done. A bit hefty you won't want to hike or portage this.
Be sure to stake the tent down. The wind caught mine and rolled it around and bent a top pole, which I returned to LL Bean and replaced with the same tent. I've had many tents and this is our go-to car camping tent.

Great, EXCEPT......
Great tent, EXCEPT it is missing a "backdoor" screen. Big design goof. Other tents have it. Can't figure out why the design doesn't include a screen for the "backdoor" to allow cross ventilation. Makes for a very stuffy tent in hot weather. The small vents at the top, to allow air in under the fly do not make up for no backdoor screen. Can't leave the backdoor open for cross ventilation without also letting in the bugs. It would have been so easy to use the same screen design as the front door, for the backdoor. Wonder why not?
And in a rain storm, the air vent supports for the fly became conduits for water - carrying water down them in to the tent. We had to close down the fly air vents. Go figure.........

Tent Review
Love LL Bean products, the tent is exactly as described, like the steep sides for keeping the weather out, no chance of pooling….super easy set up and takedown….highly recommend

Cheapened product -Returned
Too many short cuts were taken on this tent.
1. Inadequate front fly
2. No mesh at rear door
3. Undersized storage bag with only a one way zipper.
Seemed more like a cheap tent I picked up at a big box store. Not up to LLBean's previous tent quality, and what a shame! For a few cents more, this could have been a keeper.
