Great ventilation but. . . .
By Roger Hayes
This seemed like the perfect tent for us; more than enough room but not too large. Ventilation appeared to be excellent, and it was. It's the most comfortable tent I've been in during the daytime when others can be stuffy.But setup and take down is a pain. The sleeves are restricted in four places (two on each) to allow the fly to be attached to the frame via velcro tabs (seen in the photos as D-shaped openings). Unfortunately the restricted channels are the approximate size of the ferrules (metal tubes that attach pole sections), and each ferrule needs to be fed through individually--they won't go otherwise. It's common for the pole sections to become separated during this procedure. These challenges add a good ten minutes to setup. During take down the same thing happens; the ferrules need to be individually worked through the restricted channels. Perhaps other pole designs with smaller ferrules or none at all like some used by other manufacturers would help.The side windows allow low ventilation and are easy to see through. They are covered by panels that fasten to the tent fabric three or four inches from each window corner. They hang an inch or so from the tent fabric thereby allowing air flow from the outside when everything else is closed up. Although this would be nice on warm evenings, cooler nights might be a problem, and in my opinion these panels make this a one-season tent. Zippered covers, like the ones on the doors, would stop air flow when desired.On the plus side the tent features wonderful ventilation. The Grand Manan has numerous ventilation possibilities to take advantage of breezes from any direction, no matter how slight. Two roof vents, accessible from the inside via zippered openings, allow heat to escape, and they work; heat can be felt coming through them even while pitched in the shade. Both doors feature fastenings that allow the bottom portion of the door covers to be rolled up a few inches allowing air flow to enter the tent. These and the roof vents alone, along with air from the side windows, would make this tent among the most comfortable on warm evenings. But further, the fly can be rolled up and fastened in several different configurations to take advantage of prevailing breezes--see photos.But the two problems outlined above were deal breakers for me. Perhaps Eureka will modify these bugs on future versions, and if so, the tent would be a perfect choice for a wide variety of conditions.

Fit My Needs
By Benjamin Wiles
I've had several tents over the years and have come up with a few must haves for a car camping tent. They include a full fly, low and high windows for proper ventilation, privacy in the form of zippered or paneled windows, and a tent I could stand in. Since I was looking for a car camping tent, weight wasn't a concern. The Grand Manan is the only tent I could find under $250 that fit my needs.The Manan weighs in at just over 20 pounds and feels like it. The tent comes in a large stuff sack and holding it by the drawstring part of the sack made me feel like I was putting too much pressure on the sack. I will probably replace the stuff sack with a duffel bag. The packed up tent is bulky though (11"X25") and takes up more space than I expected.I setup the tent at home before heading out on our first trip. The only problem I encountered when setting up the tent was with one of the tent sleeves. The segment of one of the sleeves at the apex of the tent is just a bit too tight and you have to force each ferrule through. It's a little frustrating because it is easy to pull the pole apart when setting up and taking down the tent. Also, the tension of the cord in the poles is very loose. Taken together setting up and taking down is a little more tedious than it should be. I will probably shorten the cord to make it tighter somewhere along the way.The pole issue not withstanding, the construction of the tent seems to be pretty solid. The zippers work well and do not get caught up in the fabric. I am 5'9 and can easily stand in the center of the tent and walk around without hitting the roof for a few feet on either side of the tent's peak. The entire rainfly is seal seamed along with the floor of the tent. I used a small tube of Seam Grip to finish the perimeter of the tent as well as some panels on the roof. This took about 2 hours of work. I did notice that some of the stitching was a little off though. Some stitching that should have been doubled over to hide the edge of the fabric was sticking out. I don't think that it will affect the use of the tent but some stitching looked a little messy.I first used the Manan on a two night stay at Cape Henlpen in Delaware. My fiancé and I were able to put the tent together in under 10 minutes. Having setup the tent at home really helped. One thing that is easy to overlook is that the fly has poles that have to be inserted into it before you set the fly. We used an 8X10 tarp as a footprint, with the excess two feet of tarp under one of the entrances. We used this space to store sandals and a towel to wipe our feet of sand.I particularly enjoyed all the ways one can vent the tent. You can pull back portions of the fly to funnel air into the tent if there is a breeze or raise the sides of the fly for full ventilation. While full mesh tents are nice when backpacking, they can be a pain in campgrounds when your closest neighbor is only 50 feet away and can easily catch a glimpse of your significant other when changing. This usually means that the fly is left on 100% of the time which reduces the usefulness of all the mesh. The Manan overcomes this by using panels that are attached to the inside of the mesh windows with toggles. Want full venting? Undo two toggles and you have almost and entire wall of mesh. Need privacy? Attach the toggles. Zippered windows would have been nicer but I assume the panels are a cost cutting measure. This could be an issue during the colder months when air can rush past the sides of the panels. I doubt it will be a problem for me.The waterproof test of tent happened on our second night when we had a full 12 hours of heavy rain resulting from the remnants of a hurricane. This was probably one of the worst case scenarios the tent will ever face. We knew it was likely to rain heavily, so we staked the tent out and guyed out the fly to some trees. About 20 minutes into the rain, I noticed some drops on the tent below the rain venting flaps. Even though it was not windy, the splashing of the rain on the fly caused some drops to splash into the tent. I closed the vent flaps and the drops stopped.An hour later, I found a few drops dripping from the web pockets on the rain fly into the vestibule. This is where the poles are inserted in the fly to create the vestibule. This wasn't a big deal since the drops weren't coming into the tent and all we had in the vestibule were sandals. I will probably have to add seam sealer to the area around the webbing.Finally, around 8 hours into the rain I felt pockets or water below the tent floor. Somehow water had gotten between the tarp and the tent floor. I figured the floor was waterproof enough and just ignored it. By the next day, the entire floor was wet. There weren't any puddles but the water had overwhelmed the floor and seeped into the tent.It took a little work to figure out what went wrong. First let me say that I like using a footprint with my car camping tents. This is for cleanliness and to extend the life of the floor. I used an 8'X10' tarp so that the tarp would be smaller than 3 sides of the tent by several inches and then the long part of the tarp could be used as a door mat under the vestibule. What happened was that it was raining so much that the rain was forming small puddles where the fly met the ground. Unfortunately rain would splash off the puddles and hit the side of the tent. Fortunately they hit just an inch or two from where the mesh begins. But the rain would drip down the side of the tent and be drawn between the tent floor and the tarp. At first I blamed the tarp for the failure. But remember that the footprint Eureka offers for this tent is 9X9 and would have extended further than what I used. The only thing I can think of is that I should have tried to get the fly to come closer to the ground. I'm not sure how easily I will be able to do that next time. I don't blame Eureka for the failure but I think that the fly should probably be as long as it is in front of the doors, and touch the ground.I am completely satisfied with the tent even though I still do not know how I will overcome the rain from dripping between the floor and tarp. It may be that if it starts to rain really hard, I will just pull the tarp out. I may even just use a tarp to protect only the area where most of out time in the tent is spent- the inner 7'X7' area. Besides sealing the webbing and possibly shortening the pole cord I think I'll be enjoying the tent for some years to come.

Great Tent! Eureka Grand Manan 9
By Weatherly
The Eureka Grand Manan 9 provides excellent ventilation, and it has window covers that offer privacy without restricting air flow. The privacy is essential at campgrounds where you have neighbors. The pole sleeves do make it slower to set up the tent, but the sleeves are there for a reason. Security, stability. When you look at photos of true mountaineering tents you will see that they all have pole sleeves rather than clips to secure the tent to the poles. The sleeves help stabilize the poles to keep your tent upright in heavy winds and heavy-weight drenching rains. After the storm you will be grateful that you had pole sleeves as you observe your neighbors staring aghast at their collapsed pole-clipped tents. The Grand Manan's mesh windows have covers that tie on rather than zip on. They will not retain interior warmth on cold days, but this is consistent with many tents on the market these days that have entire walls made of mesh; however, the other tents do not offer privacy covers over the mesh. The rain fly covers all the openings including the windows to offer a layer of warmth just as other tents do. Remember to place a thin drop cloth underneath the tent next to the ground, and position it so the edges do not stick out from under the tent. I always use a heavier tarp inside the tent to cover the tent floor to protect it from boots, and to help keep it clean. Note that the photo of this tent's cousin, Grand Manan 7, is not correct. The rain fly cannot form an awning on the Grand Manan 7, at least not on the earliest versions of that model. Also, any tent manufacturer's estimate of how many people fit comfortably in any tent should be accepted with a grain of salt. Usually only one-half of that number of folks will fit comfortably, and 2 very young children count as 1 adult. I currently own 3 Eureka tents of various sizes, and I would buy the Grand Manan 9 again. (All of my tents have at least partial pole sleeves for stability.) I even recommended the Grand Manan 9 to a friend who was looking for family tent.
