Does anyone have a link to the tent you use (either from a manufacturer website, store website, or your own photo gallery)? I am looking for a tent that is a good size for tent time (honestly, I am not sure how big I should go--it needs to fit myself, my partner, and our two joeys) and that folds or flattens for convenient storage. Unfortunately, I do not have the room to have the tent open 24/7. I will have to fold it up and place it in a closet or slide it under a bed.
Where did you all get your tents? What kind are they?
Thanks!

I don't have a picture, but I bought a Jr Dome tent from WalMart. It was less than $20. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Could two people fit in your tent with the gliders? Would it allow the gliders enough room to play?

Yes. 2 adults can fit in the tent, but not as comfortably as 1 would. Maybe a reg. dome tent would be better for 2 adults. Its not much bigger and they usually break down really easy. We used to used these tents when we camped. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I don't know how much you are willing to spend but I bought one of these Instant Tents as I also don't have the room to keep the tent up all the time. They are a little expensive but go up and come down in just about 3 seconds and will fit two adults comfortably. I love mine <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dance.gif" alt="" />

Suggiemom2three has one that she custom makes for gliders. It looks great and she is a wonderful person to deal with.
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming WOOOO HOOOO, WHAT A RIDE!!!

The Instatent looks great! It is a bit more than I was hoping to spend, but it might be worth it in the end...I definitely need something that pops up and down very easily.
I have taken a look at Suggiemom2three's website, but it seems as if her tents are not the easily assembled/diassembled type.
Thanks for all of your help!

If you get it, please let her know that I sent you. I have her travel cage and couldn't be more pleased with it. Plus, I rec'd it within 2 days. She's very caring and wants to make everyone happy.

I got my tent at target, It was in the kids section. It looks like a screen room with bugs on top of it. The bottom velcro's off for cleaning and I added a couple of strips of velcro at the legs to make it so that they could not escape. It will fit two people in it with no problem. folds flat and it you want to take it with you it comes with it's own bag. I paid about $20.00 for it. Whith it being screen all around you don't feel traped and can sit and watch TV while the gliders play.

The tent that I have has a floor size of 5 foot by 6 foot with a total height of 4 foot. It is a two man tent and has loads of room. I bought mine at Walmart for $20. It is larger then the kids little tents. It goes together fairly easy and most times I just colapse it and store it away (can fit easily under a bed).
