Hey guys, I just bought a Frabill Ambush Outpost hub style house this month, and have used it 4 times so far this season. Unfortunately, I am not very happy with it, and this is stemming from one main thing: the poles fall out every single time that I set it up... I have followed the directions to a T every setup, and they still fall out. Usually it is the same two, and it is a pain to try and get them back in with only half of the shelter popped out.
I called Frabill's customer service and they want me to measure the poles and see if I have the wrong size for that model.. The lady said that she has never heard of this issue before... Have any of you?
Otherwise, I really like the dark interior, even though there are many pinholes of light that show through (I expected that). The windows are not the easiest to work with, but I expected this as well. Also, the insulated top is very nice, but I would go with a full thermal if I did this again.
Overall, I am very frustrated with the poles in this shelter, and I am hoping that some of you guys can shed some light on this topic for me. I appreciate all the help you guys give!
