My kids love this tent. I bought it because I thought it would be easy to take down. I knew it took up a lot of room so I needed it to fold up, but my husband and I have tried everything to fold it up. We could fold it in half and lay it flat, but it still takes up too much room. It is suppose to fit in a small red bag, but we could not figure out how to do this and now the metal long pieces are coming out of it. My kids have enjoyed it, but we don't know where to put the big thing!! And now it has ripped.
