Hi we have this tent and, have to say we love it, it is easy to do.

Here goes, unlike other tents around you really need to ensure that the front door is open before you start (Im assuming the model you have has a sewn in groundsheet?) otherwise its near on impossible!! insert all the cross poles hooking them onto their corresponding pegs making arches- work from the front to the back,  tilting toward the front , then peg down the back end of the groundsheet/tent, pull up the front of the tent allowing the air inside which makes the tent kind of spring up  and the cross poles will all stand up. Have someone else hold the front steady - more than one if it is windy -  go inside and add the long solid poles, then move position if you need to, peg down fully and guy rope all round. Open a beer and enjoy!!
