Need Greatland tent set-up instructions

by Meg Cloud
(South St Paul, MN, USA)

Hi there! I bought a Greatland Insta-set 3-room 15'x8.3' tent in 2001.

The tag has style # BJ-930 / 11, item # 918/027 and RN # 17730 if that is of any help.

The set-up instructions got destroyed and, although it's not that difficult to set up without instructions, once it has been done, I'm not sure how I'll do if I don't use it for a couple of years, or if I lend it to someone, how they might do.

Would it be possible to get replacement instructions for this tent? Thanks.

Help! Poles coming out of hub are messed up!!
by: Anonymous

We loaned our tent to a "friend" and now the poles coming out of the hub are "crossed" and don't lay flat! We can't straighten them out because the attached insta--set poles and the fabric don't allow it. I'm not even sure how the friend got them all crossed!

Does anyone know if the poles can be detached from the hub to straighten it out????

Correction to Insta-Set instructions...
by: Renee

The company that manufactures Insta-Set tents that have model numbers that begin with "BJ" are made by BAEJIN out of Korea, not Beijing out of China. The tag clearly says made in Korea. Their website and contact info, as well as general instructions on installing these tents are available on this link (Which is how I finally was able to put mine up)...

Greatland Insta-Set instructions...READ THIS
by: Renee

For everyone looking for a manual for their Greatland Insta-Set tent, the manufacturer is a company called Beijin (Shelter Tent Manufacture Co) out of China. They do not have a US location anymore. If the Model number begins with BJ, it's this company. They don't have a place to get a manual online but I have their website, China phone number and email. I'm awaiting their response.

In addition, after 1 week of trying to put together my 4-room Insta-Set tent...I finally did it. And after you get the main poles in, DON'T TAKE THEM OUT! Trust me. They're supposed to stay in the sleeves. I can walk you through it by email, video or phone if you want to contact me directly. I've searched everywhere for instructions and I've attached links to some helpful info (including manufacturer):
http://shelter.en.alibaba.com/contactinfo.html
http://www.camptown.com/sub_setup.htm (MANUFACTURER OF INSTA SET POLES)...has instructions!

...good luck!

Were you able to get replacement instructions? I've got what I believe is the same tent and can't locate the instructions.

Greatland Tent 7-8 person Dome
by: Bonnie

Have a Greatland tent TG-1615. Poles are lost. Company out of business (North Pole) or doesn't handle Greatland parts anymore.

Thought a manual could tell me size of poles so I could have them made. Seeing many of you w/the same product having issues. Any suggestions.

Greatland 7-8 person Dome Tent w/porch - Instruction manual

by Ali
(Sacramento, CA)

We got a Greatland 7-8 person Dome tent with screened in porch for our wedding 4 years ago.

We used it one year later and it worked great. However, i took it out to use it recently and discovered that we must have thrown the instructions away. I went online thinking they would be easy to find, no such luck. How hard is it for Greatland to scan a copy of their manual and have it available online? Also, on our first camping trip, one of our fellow campers ran into the tent with his bike and broke a pole.

According to online, i will never be able to fix that. I will wrap it with some electrical tape and hope it does the job. Not satisfied though, a little irritated.

As far as the actual tent though, it is very roomy, my husband is 6'4" and can stand up with no problem, so that is great.

REPLACEING BROKEN POLES
by: Anonymous

IF YOU BREAK A POLE JUST GO TO YOUR NEAREST PLACE THAT SELLS PVC PIPE----3/4 IN PVC WORKS GREAT AND IS FLEXIBLE AND STRONGER AND CHEAPER THAN THE ORIGINAL POLES

Tent help
by: Anonymous

Are you still looking for instructions? I think you may have the same tent as I do (which I've had for about 14 years), and I can help with instructions if necessary. Is yours a blue, square tent with metal poles that click together with hard plastic corner pieces? Let me know, and I'll be happy to help you out.
