I picked up an REI Kingdom 4 with the Connect Tech Garage over the spring sale. It's intended use to be my boat camping tent when I'm out with the wife and dogs. We took it out for this first time this past weekend and were highly disappointed. The tent itself was okay I guess, but not at all worth the price tag. And the Connect Tech Garage was a piece of junk. Don't bother setting that up unless you have absolutely ideal ground conditions for stakes and no wind.
I am invoking my REI satisfaction guarantee and returning it but that means I'm on the hunt for a new big tent for the beach. I'm thinking a 4-man, roughly 8' x 8' floor dimensions. A tall ceiling would be nice but I'd give up some of that for better wind resistance. Anyone have any favorites or suggestions in that category?
