Harbor Freight
Made of the same mat'l as the tent - thin nylon - does fit well with securing straps - while you need a footprint you'd be WAY better served by going to Harbor Freight and buying a much cheaper much stronger tarp AND have some extra material for under both of the vestibules ! Thank me later

Very thin. I think it's a bit overpriced.
I was confused!!?.. thought I Needed this for inside nd that there was No floor in tent! I understand it's ripstop or whatever they call it!...but it's as thin as a cheap shower curtain!. I'm scared to put on ground. I think it was quite pricey. And was nervous to set it up in my yard.. I may return buy a tarp. . . I watched few videos to see how to set up.. saw numerous people putting the Alps tent up.. .. And none had this floor saver!? They had tarps with loops for stakes!***Has anyone noticed that no matter whether you put warranties on purchased items says window closed. 2 times I called for returns...and sure enough Amazon said The Windows are closed!! And Not too long before this covid19 I got a call saying something was hacked and hung up "I record all calls .. So I was able to go back and listen to it... First thought it said emails being hacked. But it clearly said" looks like your Asurion protection plan has been hacked!!". Amazon took advantage of the covid19. Cause I have screenshots of all my purchases with the warranties. So they'll finally say ok you can return!?! So Beware record And screenshot all orders that show you paid warranty on All your items! I'm not very happy with Amazon since. And as much money I've spent within few yrs. I'm not treated as a prime member/ or a valued customer. I feel They are taking advantage of their customers.

Measurements
We're impressed with this "floor saver" so far. It will be a few weeks before we actually use it with our new Alps 4person tent . Took it out of the stuff sack tonight to check it out. It measured 96.5" L x 83.5" W and hopefully willbe a perfect fit for our new tent. We measured the thickness at 4 mils (0.004"). Our really cheap HF tarp is just over5 mils. The Tyvek ground cover or "floor saver" we used on our old tent is 7 mils thick. I read all the reviews regarding how this "floor saver" is a little thin but proceeded with the purchase anyway. The cost vs. time spent finding a cheaper or thicker alternative was a "no brainer" for us. We've been down that path many times over the last 20+ years and were never happy with the cheaper alternatives. Only giving it 4 stars for now since we haven't actually used it with our new tent yet. No problem putting it back in the provided sack after checking it out.Update: We did a test fit with our Alps Mountaineering Taurus 4 Outfitter tent today. Good fit, extended right to edge of our tent.07/05/19 Update: Happy with our purchase. We used the "floor saver" for the first time today camping for 4 days. Adding another star...

Solid product not just a tarp. Good build quality
Solid product for the price. Kelty and others make better perfect matched footprint options, where the same four stakes hold the tent and footprint. This product is excellent for an universal fit. I bought it for an 8X8 Eureka. On obvious dry nights I had a 2 foot porch nice to take shoes off etc. On potential rain nights I rolled the extra cover back under the tent and staked corners just outside of the tent. This can be done while the tent is up. Unstake the front then just roll the extra two feet back and restake. It all equals dry tent and protected floor. Come with a bag the fit is good. Fabric is very foldable and has a top and bottom finish.

Used on a couple camping trips so far
I really like how compact this tarp is which makes it easy to pack especially on backpacking trips. The only thing is the trade-off comes in that the material is very thin. It seems like the floor saver is made of the same material as the tent floor so I don't think it offers the same protection as a traditional tarp. If there's a sharp stick or rock that might pierce the tent floor I don't think this floor saver will offer any additional protection. It also doesn't reach the whole section underneath the tent so it's not much of a water barrier either. I'd use it more as a dirt and mud barrier than anything else.

It Only Makes Sense
Fits great, appears durable. Much better than the cheap wally world tarp I was using. ALPS tents are quality products that should last for years with reasonable care. However, a false step with a rock under the tent will put a hole in it. MUCH smarter to buy this footprint and wear it out instead of having to replace the whole tent.This is the first thing out of the bag. Unfold and we walk around using the footprint to determine and clear the tent site accurately.As a plus - when breaking camp, the footprint will be damp from ground moisture, but the tent bottom typically isn't. So we can fold and stow the tent while draping the footprint to dry - which it does quickly - instead of trying to find someplace to drap the whole darned tent!

Five Stars
UPDATED 3/27/2017: So I went camping with this tent floor saver along with ALPS Mountaineering's 2-person Taurus tent, in Texas's Big Bend National Park, for 9 days. We stayed in the Chiso Basin campground which is actually VERY rocky. No grassy campground. I did what I can to clear off the big rocks but since the ground is LITERALLY made up of sand and rock, it's impossible to get rid of them all. However, the floor saver functioned perfectly. I HAD brought one of them blue tarps but a fellow camper forgot her floor saver so I lent her my tarp and just had this floor saver and tent instead. Through 7 days of camping (the last 2 days we moved to a different campground to get some grass and shade...), this floor saver kept anything from poking through the floor of my tent. I had laid a suit case, a duffel bag, my backpack, sleeping mat, boots, etc. in the tent, and had also dragged the suit case around a bit as necessary. Came home, laid out the floor saver for inspection and was expecting some wear and tear...but NOTHING! No holes. No punctures. All it needed was a wipe down with a towel and some diluted isopropyl alcohol (it was very dusty at the campsite) and it looked good as new! I am very happy with this floor saver and it did a great job!Great floor protection that goes under your tent, especially considering it is many-folds cheaper than the tent itself!

Util como bajo piso ligero
Me resulto útil, como bajo piso aislante y repelente de la humedad.Pros o Ventajas: es Ligero y fácil de trasportar y guardar, abarco bien mi casa de 4 personas.Contras: Esperaba algo mas de uso rudo ya que salí a la montaña y requería proteger el bajo piso de la casa de campaña con algo mas rudo.Comentario: Lo combine con una lona en el bajo piso de la casa y deje encima de la lona el piso ALPS y la combinación fue excelente, por que nos protegió de la humedad del piso y del rocío de la madrugada.

size isnt as advertised
Update: it does not match. But is close enough I’ll make it work.i bought a footprint that said 5 foot by 7 foot 6 inch. but the actual measurements are 4 foot 6 by 7 foot even. now this is supposed to match the tent i have coming in the mail (ALPS Mountaineering Meramac 2-Person Tent) perfectly at the 5x7ft6inch measurment. hopefully the tent reflects similar measurements....

costo elevado
En mi opinión el articulo no tiene una buena relación con el precio, considero que su construcción es buena pero demasiado simple, si estas buscando un bajo suelo de carpa, consideraría al menos que el producto sea de un calibre relativamente grueso, quizás acolchonado (que aislara) o que al menos estuviera plastificado y no fue el caso de este articulo, básicamente es una sabana de nylon simple con sujetadores en las esquinas, en la honestidad del caso, al recibirlo y percatarme de tales características, lo devolví sin usarlo, no quise arriesgarme a estar a la intemperie y que esto no sirva para aislar del suelo la carpa.

Nice lightweight footprint
At first I thought it was too thin but after playing around with it, it seems to be strong material, still thin but strong. It fits a Riorand 4 season 2 person winter tent perfectly with a tiny bit of the tent being slightly bigger than this footprint but no problem if you prepare the ground first. This is thin enough to wrap with the tent so tent and tarp are ready to go.I'm happy with the purchase.

Les deux font la paire
J'ai acheté la tente, donc je ne pouvais pas manquer de prendre la bâche de sol. Couvre bien la surface, semble assez résistant, de bonne qualité.
