I have had this tent in use for some time and it has been an awesome game changer. I need more stars for this review. The tent itself all around is of really good quality, from the zippers to the sturdy construction. Almost every day I find another use for one of the extras they sent and having these made getting a nice initial set up a breeze. Thanks to this set up, I have gone from a struggling grower to a happy one thanks to the netting and ties, 1st plant has an easy 15 top buds, 2nd plant is well past double that. I can't say enough how happy I am with all of it.I needed a drying tent since my plants won't finish together. Bought this since it fits next to current tent and is small.I figured it would be cheap tent since it comes with a lot of items in the box. You'd be stupid not to buy this if you needed a small tent set up.The tent is legit quality made. I can't believe the for 100 package... it rivals my Gorilla tent....wow. everything minutes the zippers is the same quality. But these are better than most zippers.The extras just male you feel good about how cheap this was and much you jutlst scored a sweet tent setup deal. No I'm not paid, or got it for free. I paid full price like the regular bunch.The 5 gallon fabric pots, elastic scrog net and drying net made the deal even shorter.Buy it, silly not to. I want another one for fun to put something else in now.Easy to put together .small amount of light escapes around the Velcro window covers .great for the priceOkay so when I received this around Christmas I never opened it. I began set up and use as of Feb 21st. For some reason, there's a tear in the top of the tent which makes me think thats why my grows aren't having any success. On top of that I never received a net for sea of green and can't figure out what other equipment goes to this tent specifically as of temperature control, etc. Im wanting to refund this and get a better one.Product is useless has a hole and due to this I am unable to use it which has put my grow behindThe POTLAB 18"x18"x56" Grow Tent is a very well-made system, though I wonder if this particular size is worth the trouble. I guess it's a good size if you're short on room. Suitable for a closet grow, maybe. Only one full-grown plant will fit in this, and a small one at that.It comes with everything you'll need, except for the light and the air exhaust system, including pruners, a light timer, and a thermometer/hygrometer. They even include work gloves, 5-gallon cloth planting pots, ropes and pulleys for hanging the lights, and even an herb drying rack. They really have thought of everything.Easy enough to assemble, I guess. Getting the body of the chamber around the structure is tricky. If you're struggling to make it fit, make sure you're moving the right corner to where it should go. I was tugging and tugging until I realized that I had the whole thing twisted. Once I worked that out, it all came together. The zippers are problematic and easy to get caught in the gusset. Just work slowly when you're zipping it up. (I suspect this is the trouble that all people who left the negative reviews had.)The instructions have you begin assembling the metal base in the square water liner. That's in a bag with many similarly colored and shaped items, so be sure to inspect everything before you start. I built mine entirely before I found this item.I probably spent a total of thirty minutes putting it together. No tools are required, but it's designed well, and it is sturdy enough to do what it's meant to do.Once assembled I'm confident that this is a fairly solid built tent. I can tell by how snugly it was to pull the skin over the shell. The tent has a good zipper. This unit has a variety of ventilation options multiple exhaust ports. Most importantly one on the very top. It has screened breathable openings on both sides and rear. Included are blackout pieces that fit neatly over those openings. I was a little sad to not see a mesh pocket on the inside. The bottom line is It's better built than a vivo sun. I put it a little behind Mars hydro. And about a lap and a half behind AC infinity. But you cannot argue with the price point for all that you get. the only things you're missing is seeds, media, ducting, fan, power cords and lighting. All the basic stuff that most novices wouldn't know they need are included. The compact one layer drying rack is nice because let's face it how much can you grow in a 3X3 tent.I have both offerings from this company and I'm equally satisfied with both of them the baby tent is working great as a drying tent. I'll update this review if I run across any problems but right now there are two healthy girls inside of this and I couldn't be more pleased.I have a bunch of grow tents. I got myself into a pickle with scheduling. How do I dry when every tent is filled with something still actively growing. Solution, budget small tent. Now upon opening and inspection this is a basic quality grouping of products WITH the tent. THE TENT itself is considerably better made than the peripheral products they have sent you with it. It took a considerable effort to get the skin on over this little guy that's how tight they are made. Yes the corner brackets are plastic but man do they fit tight. You have to really really work at it to get everybody square and pushed in all the way. The short version here is it's pretty sturdy the zipper is really good and the walls are thicker than my vivo sun. This company makes tents in a variety of sizes so if you don't need one this small check them out they have bigger ones. So far I'm impressed, the quality of the tent is so far below the price point it's sad,the company hasn't realized this yet. I encourage them to up the price a little bit before they lower the quality any! I recommend this product on my initial inspection and use. Happy growing everyone.
