are gorilla tents worth the money?

I went w all steel framed Vivosun
And fusion hut.
Two years in and no issues.

Is it true that Gorilla tent zips are not as good as they were? Amazon reviews are complaining about broken zips after a few months.

Tents are nowhere near the quality they used to be. The budget ones rip like tin foil.

The bud box I bought in 2004/5 was awesome. The one my mate just bought is shit.

i have owned 4 of 1.2 x 1.2 x 2. Jungle room tents for 4 years going strong, only issue is height, great for autos/photos under led, have just given 3 tents to and young guy starting out and built rooms.. Owned a Gorilla tent for a while, the boys in blue suits took it away in the early days - it was an omen

Damn how’d they get involved?

Generally you will get what you pay for. Gorilla is near 30x as thick as other brands. The poles about 5x the width. And it can hold about 4x the weight those cheap tents are good for. And unless i'm missing something you also cannot get 5 by 5's anywhere as short as you can with Gorilla. I grow in my basement and my 80' tent has about a half inch clearance on the roof so its pretty silly to try and put up full size tents specially the stupid way they expect you to do those cheap tents. Also if you have cats unless you can keep them out of reach of the tent don't even bother with cheap tents they will shred it in about 1 strech.
