The construction of the Cottage House Tent is top notch. Pacific Play Tents have put years of research and testing into the development of their products and they all meet United States safety standards.
The material used on the walls and roof is a very strong 70 Denier nylon, and is very easy to clean with just a damp cloth and mild soap. There are ventilation panels in the roof to allow for good airflow and continued use on hot days. These panels are also very handy for parents to keep an eye on what children are up to inside their play tent.
Pacific Play Tents produces entire play systems whereby tunnels can be purchased that connect to other play tents and accessories. The Cottage House has a tunnel port, whereby a tunnel can be quickly and easily attached with strong velcro tabs.
