Purchasing a grow tent HELP!

Ive been shopping for a new 5x5 grow tent & I can't afford a Hydrohut, Ive been told that Hydrohut is the best grow tent out there but way too overpriced! so...... I found this 5x5 tent on Ebay for 180.00$ it looks like a great tent on the pictures but it doesn't have a company name or any manufacture info or reviews (sketchy). Pics of the tent i'm interested are below. Has anyone purchased one of these tents & does this tent look like good quality compared to Hydrohut? Any input is appreciated thank's RIU!

Ive seen people who have a lot of issues with the tents off ebay lots of people say the stitching is bad as well as the fabric it self seem to tear way to easy. You could save the money now and upgrade later

Thanks man, those are my main concerns. dam. Your tent looks killer, thats a sun hut silver u got? btw +rep!

yes its the sun hut silver great tent very well made i lean on the doors, and abuse it alot and not tears or any stitching popping. but the sun silvers say one size on the box which is incorrect the end up being a bit bigger you could get the 4x4 and im sure its the size of that one you pictured.

DUDE, I found A sun hut silver 4x4 witch is actually 54" x 54" x 84" for 215.00$ & free shipping, looks like I am going to get this tent. pic below. Is this a good buy?

Ive got a generic 6x6x6 tent that I hate. Cheap stiching, horrible access, low weight tolerance for gear. Its definitly getting replaced soon.
Got a 4x4x7 hydrohut that I really like, much better quality, better access, more features (pockets and whatnot) and holds twice the weight of the other much larger tent.

Im going to replace the generic one with a secret Jardin 120Twin really soon, to me its worth paying double for a much much much better tent.

I got that one, its dope. Youll like it. Just watch the velcro, it tends to come unstiched for some lame reason if you pull on them too hard. Otherwise its good stuff.

i got a secret jardin, from the research i did it seemed the best, now noone hate on me, just what i came to think, and i dont claim to be a tent expert, but i cant say a single bad thing about mine

Awesome man, yeah I just watched a video review on the Sun Hut Silver, & the reviewer's only prob was the velcro flaps come lose if your not careful (this is not a prob) i'll just check em now & then. Thanks again guys, you've been great help!

i got the secret jardin Dark room, not the cheaper Dark Street Room, which are the cheaper version, and make sure its the type 2 ones, so look for Dark room 2nd gen
