This is a BIG Tent - or as they refer to it, a "Cabin". It's VERY roomy. My husband is 6'1" tall and can stand in the tent, also included is a pic of him laying down inside the tent and clearly there's plenty of room.
SIZE: Does it fit 10? Realistically more like 4 (maybe 5) adults or a Family of 5 with kids, plus gear. The "plus gear" is really nice because so often a tent will fit sleeping people but with very little extra room for gear. It's also big enough to accommodate camping cots, probably at least 4 with some space between.
ASSEMBLY: Two people can have this set up pretty easily. The corner poles are extended - they click into place with a metal button click, then the off-center poles, and then the whole thing is raised up corner-corner and the poles snap into their extended place by pushing on the center joints. There's instructions - those could be a bit more clear - but we figured it out (after some lively discussion...). Like any assembly, once it's done the first time it'll be much easier and half the time the next times.
CANOPY: The canopy will be a must-have for any rain or weather, as the top of the tent is open netting. Two people toss the canopy over the top of the tent, work the corners into place, and then clip them to the loops on the tent corners. For placement the logo goes in front. If it's definitely going to be dry then the open net ceiling gives a realistic "sleeping under the stars" mode.
STAKES: Includes stakes and a stake bag. ***A rubber mallet (or similar) will be needed (not included).****
WINDOWS/DOOR: Very generously sized zip open/shut front door and windows. Zippers seem substantial and should hold up. Will update the review if they don't.
EXTRAS: Has nice extras, such as a front of the tent (or interior) mat for shoes or messy gear. Has loops on the ceiling to hang lights, fans, etc. Has small indoor pockets, and a covered opening specifically to run an extension cord through,
TAKE DOWN: Easy to take down, it's basically assembly in reverse. Everything folds up and fits in to the storage/carry bag.
BAG: Bag is roomy with sturdy handles. It might be nice if it had a shoulder carrying strap, but it's not a deal breaker that there isn't one.
