>> I <3 this tent
I bought this tent a few years ago and have nothing but kind things to say about it
1 It s sorta light Considering its size it s sorta light probably around 7 pounds when you include the footprint not included Considering how voluminous this thing is I really don t mind the extra ounces
2 It s freakin huge Seriously this thing is the airplane hanger of small tents The way the poles pull this thing apart there is just tons of headroom in this then Maybe it s a character defect of mine but I get a little uneasy being in confined areas like when you re trying to get a pair of pants on in a tent and you re banging your head against a wall/ceiling I ve never had a problem like that in this tent Seriously it s gigantic I ll bet if you took a ratio of square footage to cubic footage this one would win by a mile
3 It s mostly screen No more riding out humid still nights With all around screen whatever little wind is around will pass through your tent My last tent had a clever wind flow system so that you had to position the tent just right with respect to the wind to catch any breeze Never again
4 It s easy to use It s a snap to put up and the rain fly is very easy to deal with The doors are very intuitive and easy to get in and out of It s really a no brainer The only challenge is reading the directions the first few times to figure out when where and how the poles go in After that it s smooth sailing
5 It s lasting quite well I ve had this for three years now and we camp regularly in it even in the snow So far no stitches have popped all the zippers are cherry and as far as I can tell there isn t even any abrasion on it My guess is that the rain fly has faded a bit but I would have to compare it to a fresh one Other than that I m quite surprised at how well this is holding up
This is a really great tent My only complaint is that the vestibules really cannot hold that much stuff When this is billed as a three person tent I d say there is no theoretical way to fit three campers and all of their stuff into this tent For the two of us however this tent is just perfect
