Sleeping Capacity Vs Tent Size

DETERMINING WHAT TENT SIZE TO BUY

The amount of square footage in tents increases significantly when going up just one size .  Insure you purchase the correct tent size that meets your requirements. If you can't make up your mind on what tent size to buy, chalk out the 2 sizes on your driveway and then chalk items that will be in your tent.  

Also compare the price difference between the tent sizes vs the amount of square footage gained by purchasing the larger tent.

Note, I have never been told by a customer that he wished he had bought a smaller tent.  I am always told by the customer that in hindsight he wished he had purchased a larger tent.

If you still can't make up your mind on the tent size, call us and we can discuss your requirements and make recommendations. Rich.
