Looked at their product and talked to a sales rep. Built and imported to their specs. Didn't come away impressed.

We ended up buying from Davis. I talked to someone different the 3 times I called and they had the last name Davis every time. They build them in house and the service is top notch. They will help you figure out what you want and need but not try to sell you something we got in stock and have to move. I ordered it exactly how we wanted it and had it in 2 weeks during their busiest time this summer. They would be the only choice IMO.

Yeah you can go either way. They have some pre built or will build to order. I was in a hurry so I went with the wilderness model. They claim they are made with Army Duck double fill canvas so we will see how it goes. I was able to customize how I wanted with windows etc. didn't have time to wait to have one completely built. I'll report how it worked out after Utah.

Good luck and hope it works out for you. I'm sure with proper care it will last lots of years

I bought a wall tent from these guys a couple of years ago, I have had to replace both zippers and have two different places resewn. I would stick with Davis or Montana next time.

They were nice to deal with, but quality wasn't there. I really wanted the design and size of there spike tent, but the first one was horribly sewn so I returned it. Gave them a second chance, but the replacement came with walls 6 inches too short for the poles..... I gave up and went to a cabelas outfitter tent. Doesn't have the size I wanted, but was much cheaper and quality was as expected.

I know nothing about them.

I've had 2 wall tents since 1991, so they last if you take care of them.

My last was a Montana Canvas.

Still running strong BUT I've had to cut the gables down twice and the legs twice, it keeps shrinking!!

Friends have the Davis and don't have that problem. Plus the Davis has a lighter colored canvas so more light gets in.

Next tent will be from Davis.
