You need to set the tent between two trees and run the guide line thru the tent to each tree or you can use treking poles / branches and guide line them to the ground after putting tention on the rope going thru tent I hope this helps you out you can also see demos on a frame tent set ups and tarp on youtube

Yes, my husband and I consider this a easy/quick set up and take down screen tent. You put it up with "bendy" poles that have the elastic cord connecting them. All you do is unfold the poles and slide them through the loops on the tent. As you slide the poles through the top loops you snap them into place along the sides. There are hook type loops on the bottom four corners of the tent that secure the poles in place has you "pop" it up. There are stakes that you can use to secure it to the ground, but if you have no wind you do not have to use them. Hope that helps :)

you might could set it on a branch but you would have to find a way to attach it- the "wind action" doesn't really work

This tent is not free standing, it has only one pole the goes right down the center. This tent has to be staked down to set up. But if you are using it for backpacking it is great I love mine. It has to be one of the lighted tents I have ever used. Hope I have helped!

Yes, it has to be held up by a cord (included). Just get the cord through the tube and tie the ends to surrounding trees. Or just get your sleeping bag inside the tube. Be aware, though, this is an "emergency" shelter... something you'll pack with you for a "just in case" situation.

We set it up on our drive way, then used tent stakes and rope out in the grass. You could tie rope to sand bags, if you are unable to use tent stakes.

I just wrap it around a pole. You can buy a thing you put in the ground and hook it on it.

You don't. :) The tent is heavy enough that it will keep itself weighted down when no one is in it. I've had some pretty strong winds and it didn't move as opposed to a standard tent where you would need to. If you wanted to, you can add sandbag weights to put over the legs, but I don't think it's necessary.

use a tent stake or other thru the mounting holes. I actually just have a little chain and clip that I attach and then attach the chain to a screw in the ground anchor.

I used a hook to hang from tree but does have 1 already. I need to make a covering a bit over top as rain ruins seeds. Right now I fill it up some but not full.

Tent need to be hammered in the ground. If you can make some arrangement for the poles then you can do it at Indore.

you an stick a pole underneath the base or some how secure it in a tree from base, yes, it won't hang from a treebecause the head is attached only by a loose spring to make it wobble in the wind. Trick is to attach it to a wooden dowelor some sort from underneath (like a coin bank with stopper kind of set up, maybe a round hole about 2 inches in diameter).

You can put the tent up very quickly. The frame is an accordion style which means you just simply open and close it. Please let us know if you have additional questions.

It must be staked at least at the four corners. Otherwise, the tent cannot be set up. Feel free to contact us with any other questions.

Yes one person can set it up and take it down. The tent is already put together all you have to so is unpack and adjust pies to lock in place. Then once that is done you are ready to camp in the tent

it's a 3 pole system, 2 long poles make an "x" across the tent- slip them in the sleeve, put the ends into the little peg on the ring that is on the corners, connect the clips, and it's standing. the 3rd pole is for the fly- it makes the overhang of the door. it has bungee cords and ties to keep it in place. it will take you longer to decide where to put it than it will to set up the tent. once you get the hang of it- about 5 min.
