Q: What is the difference between a "Pole" tent and a "Frame" tent?
A: Pole tents have center poles that hold up the canopy and need to be staked into the ground for support (please note that we need at least four feet on each side of the tent for staking it into the ground). Frame tents do not need the center pole for support and they do not need to be staked into the ground, which makes the frame tent perfect for surfaces where staking a tent is not possible (driveway, parking lot..).
