"Our testers appreciated the quick, intuitive pitch of the freestanding, two-door shelter during a blustery downpour in coastal Maine. There's 47 inches of headroom courtesy of prebent poles, and plenty of elbowroom, meaning no clothes-changing contortions." – Backpacker Magazine's 2007 Gear Guide

I can set it up in the dark by feel in a few minutes. Haven't used it in heavy weather yet, but normal summer showers don't bother it. Splits nicely 3 ways (body, poles & stakes, fly) for lightweight backpacking.

AS is most always the case with a three man tent- it is well designed for two with room for gear. Three people only in a downpour or Mosquito attack. Well constructed and user friendly pitching - always good when you have swatted those first few and are anxious to sit out the dusk till it is time for the fire. Perfect for my needs.

This tent is great! It's very lightweight and easy to set-up - I was able to do it quickly on my own. It did rain lightly the night I used it and I didn't even know until the next morning! It comfortably fit me, a friend and my boarder collie mix. I think you could fit 3 close friends without the pup if need be. Overall, a great purchase!

great tent easy to set up even in the dark i find it easy...doesnt condensate that much accept for winter camping i know its only a three season but you can get away with it just keep the doors open for winter nights so you dont get soaked in the morning. rain fly works great and stands up to wind incredibly well and i have had this tent in some rough new england weather. even though im a big guy i still find it comfortable being able to fit my gear inside the tent along with me if need be and plenty of head room. cant really find anything wrong with it so if you get this tent its well worth the money

I use this tent while camping at the Gunks for rock climbing and I love this tent. It meets all expectations.

Real Nice Tent. Easy setup / breakdown. Lightweight. Only complaints is that the floor is somewhat flimsy, you definitly need the footprint. Also the rear "vestibule" is not even big enough to mention.
