Best purchase of the year! - Big Agnes Flying Diamond 6 Tent - 6 Person, 3+ Season

What a quality product. My wife and I did a hefty amount of research on our next tent a few months back, and stumbled across the Big Agnes Flying Diamond 6. Now I am used to camping with Marmot and North Face gear, so naturally my expectations were high as we were shopping for a "car camping" tent complete with absolute quality, functionality, longevity and being practical in nature, coming from these notorious big name brands. I can say without a doubt, after 2 trips with the Flying Diamond, the experience has been stellar. This tent is built tough and is so very well engineered. From the bathtub flooring and elevated seams to the thorough square footage within the tent itself as well as under the vestibule, this tent is a winner accords the board. The ergonommical design of folding up the tent and stuffing all the contents into a briefcase-like stuff sack with handles is ingenious. It's also one of the only 4 seasons tent of its size that is Everest base camp rated for under a grand. I highly highly recommend this tent. You will not be disappointed.

Note: Be sure to get the foot print and some beefier stakes! (The stakes it comes with are fine, but everyone wants bend-proof stakes)

Thanks Big Agnes!
