 Not up to Eureka quality standards...Aug 27, 2007
By Camping guru
I have three Eureka tents and am a big fan...the main reason I felt comfortable buying this screen house. If you have a Eureka tent you know the "pole connector hub" is actually a METAL star that all the poles lock into. The screen house is a similar design, but the "pole connector hub" is cheap plastic! The first time I put this together I cracked the plastic star because everything was not perfectly aligned. It makes no sense that metal poles would be well supported by a plastic hub!It simply is not up to the level of quality I have expected from Eureka--even at this price I would stay away from this product.

 Performed wellOct 30, 2007
By Joan Fox
At this price point it met all our expectations. It was actually easier to set up than expected. (beware the possibility of bending a pole. That said, we received a free replacement pole from Eureka as it was not clear if it was a defect or user error) This whole unit can be set up and moved around with no problem, put over the picnic table, moved to the shade, etc. Once staked down it would handle some wind, but rain would blow thru the screens. The stored size is very compact, making it a breeze to take along. I would caution the user to note the exterior dimension is not the same as useable space as you note the side walls do angle in toward the roof. There IS room for a full size picnic table inside, but you can't stand up tall as you walk around it.

 Beware in the windNov 15, 2007
By J. K. Dresser
This is a nice screen room but there is no provision for guy lines. Ours blew down in a brisk breeze and broke three of the poles. We are currently waiting to see if Eureka will replace them.

Good QualityJul 26, 2007
By Happy Campers
"camper #1"
Set up was easy w/ two people. I was glad to find that the tent had an open bottom, which seemed vague in the description. We were able to set it up and move it over a stationary picnic table w/ no problem. We are pleased w/ this product and felt it was a decent price for the quality.

 No more Eureka!Aug 17, 2011
By coloradojoe731
Although the tent appears to be adequate for day use, it is a terrible design and has absolutely no warranty backing from Eureka. All four metal poles clip into a center plastic holder/stabilizer at the top of the tent. In a brisk wind (nothing special, the tent poles rotated in the stabilizer and mangled it. To add to the difficulty, there were no guy wires to shore up the poles (not even places to attach ropes to the tent. So of course the tent is going to fail in any wind. When I called the manufacturer, I was told that wind is an act of god and not covered by the warranty! Imagine, the first time I use the tent, it fails and they have the nerve to tell me it is not covered! What warranty? Not a particularly strong wind by camping standards.
To add insult to injury, it is not easy to tie back the screen for easy access.
All in all a terrible design which is not backed by the manufacturer.
