I don't recall purchasing stakes, separately. I believe that they were included in the box. :o)

I didn't purchase any additional stakes. The ones that came with it worked fine for us.

It comes with stakes. It has everything u need. If u use on the beach just make sure you clean the shaft good before you put it away. If sand or dirt gets inside it's hard to get the pole out later.

Fill the side pockets with lots of sand once you get it opened and you should be set!

They come with stakes, but we didn't use them. I would advise using them if it is windy. It did just fine and no issues not using them.

I believe there are around 12-18 stakes (or so) included in the set, but in my experience, the stakes are perfectly fine. We've used the tent about a dozen times and have used the stakes in regular grass, sandy soil, and very rocky soil, as well as through inclement weather. The we have not had a single problem with the stakes being flimsy, bending, coming loose, etc.

Comes with all stakes needed for standard camping. If you are going to hard grounds or in difficult weather you may wish to get the metal ones but not really necessary

It comes with it's own stakes, but I would recommend purchasing sturdier stakes, as the included are somewhat thin. Also, a mallet would be a handy tool to purchase, which is not included with the tent.

Hello, thank you for your interest. It comes with ground stakes. Formosa Covers

For flat surfaces with packed sand, I'd say 10-12" (metal ones). For looser dune sand, try to find longer ones. Just search "long tent stakes" on Amazon and there's a bunch of good options. First on the list are 12" Coleman stakes. Great tent for the beach by the way!

I didnt buy any extra balls other then the like 20 i had from my other ball pit. it just depends on how many balls you want for the pool, id think 2-300 would be good. but idk

I haven't found them to be flimsy, but go ahead and get a dozen or so if you want longer, sand-worthy stakes. Don't ever get "just enough;" things happen.

There are two pockets where the sticks go into, front and middle. As for the stakes, if its windy us all of them but if not 4-5 is enough.

The package contains four (4) 10 ten inch metal spike stakes. The price is $2.00 a package. I have not found them anywhere else for this price.

I believe it came with 8 but I ordered a second set of heavy duty stakes and I was glad I did. I was in a windy situation and they made all the difference

It comes with something like 12 stakes i believe? It has 3-4 for each side as well as stakes for the rain fly. They are the lightweight compact aluminum kind. Great tent for the price.

One works well with room for stakes or tomato cage. I really like mine. I also have a pepper plant in one.

The same company sells metal post stakes that you can drive into the ground; you would need one for each side of the panel to secure it. If you plan to put a few panels together, there is also a 2" square post that can add stability in between 2 panels. Word of warning: the stake & post combination is not strong enough to secure more than a couple panels together. I wanted a full-length fence, and I ended up needing to do some cobbling together (I can explain in detail if you want to know.) That said, the fence is gorgeous. This IS high-quality lattice, thick & well made.

Without digging my tent out and counting the stakes I believe it is 13 stakes. Yes there are a lot of them but it sure does make the tent stable when using it in the wind.
