We are a family of four, but we like our space. i actually thought we were getting the same size Instant tent as we had in the past (Ozark Trails, which broke in a vicious wind storm at Joshua Tree) but I think that was actually a 7 person tent. Anyways, this tent is very spacious and good clearance height at the top. What we like are the air vents along the bottom of a couple of the sides. We like the mesh at the top of the tent but the only "con" is with the mesh and a light color rainfly, ambient light sets in quicker in the morning but that is a minor issue. I need to work on being able to roll the air our of the tent is when it gets packed into the bag, it is quite large, much larger than my previous tent. What is great is the back has "expansion" zippers on them for this particular issue so you are not having to stuff into a static size bag. Overall we have only used it once so far but were pleasantly surprised. Looking for more camping time!
