Can you comfortably read a book while laying down and having this hang in the center of a 6ft high tent? Thanks.

Tenting days are over; we use these for lighting our patio. They're pretty bright and would probably would serve your needs.

I would definitely say I could read a book with this in the tent anywhere and it wouldn't even have to be on the brightest setting. But something like "comfortably read" is very subjective depending on your quality of eye sight. I have 20/20 vision and I'm fairly young so I have no idea how this would be for some one that was say 60 years old and using reading glasses. I don't know where you are at on that spectrum but hopefully this gives you an idea to judge for yourself.

Yes, it lights up my little 9X10 hay shed beautifully and I intend, when we do lose our power, to read by this light. I love it. I use it daily for morning chores but the biggest drawback is the plastic hanger on the bottom. Mine broke the first week and I fashioned a wire handle that seems to be working well For reading you would want to hang it upside down.

Yes, but the angle it creates is not that great for reading. Also, your stomach moves as you breathe, which make reading a little more challenging.

Of course, but if you'll need to use the pages holders and the book is thinner than half and inch it may not push the page down tightly against the back of the stand. It will still hold the page back though. How small of a book are we talking?

The angle of the prop is not ideal for hands free reading. To read most comfortably you have to hold it yourself.

Well you could read in bed but you'd need to put it on a bed tray. It's meant for flat surfaces. Possibly a pillow if you situated it just right. Good luck! I really enjoy mine!

I assume you mean to sleep on? Good question it is pretty long - long enough that my small tent was too small. My best guess is that it would not. Also, it sits fairly high of the ground

I would suggest to either not hanging it so high up or having a ladder. I haven't had th luxery yet of camping in mine but that's th way I would go. I've thought about bringing a ladder.

Not really. The chair lays back quite a bit. When I read from my iPad I have to use a pillow to prop it us so I can see it better.

I'm going to say no. We bought a double cot to keep us off of the ground, it's not quite a queen size, and it's hard to get it in the tent. We have just enough room on the sides to sit and put your shoes on. But, we love the tent, glad we bought it!

Yes! I was just reading a large, heavy book, hands free! You have to use it in the unfolded position.

Yes there is a place to hang a light, this tent is not for the feature minded individual. If you want a tent that has high quality zippers and materials then you will not be dissapointed.

It wouldn't recommend it unless it is only a few inches off the ground. check the height of the tent--I believe it is under 4 feet

yes, you could. However, it rolls up so small you really don't need to. this gets really small when rolled up tight. In my pack it takes up very little room and the poles slide in right along the sides of my pack. This is a really great tent with a long history. They got it right a long time ago with this design. Two people are a little tight in it but for one it is perfect. Get it and seal it and you will not be sorry. It is VERY lightwieght and just plain works!

Yes, it can. It's very comfortable to use while lying in bed, even lying on your side. Both hard cover and paper backs fit very well, and the plastic thing to hold the pages in place is effective.

I read while riding by holding the book flat across display. Leaning on elbows works but you have to hold the book in air a bit. Definitely worth it.

It's not going to be a panacea but now that I've tried using it in bed for these questions, I'd have to say that it's far far better to use this than without anything at all, as it simply holds the book open at all times and you can sort of prop it on your body somewhere. Not perfect, but the book will not flop close on you, as it would otherwise. Be careful not to crick your neck for long hours in awkward positions while reading in bed. You might wake with a painful stiff neck and then pull a tendon. I'd suggest avoiding bed reading.

Hello-I would not advise hanging anything from the tent. This is a light weight party tent. We would not want compromise the integrity of the structure.Thanks-Amber
