John C.'s Review of Kelty Gunnison 2.3 Tent - 2 Person, 3 Season

Not a tent for two adults, maybe two smaller boy scouts. I'm 5'8 and 160lbs and couldn't lay shoulder to shoulder with my wife who is a lot smaller than I am. Poor design of the Jakes feet and fly. Single pole design is unnecessary and frustrating. Seams are not well stitched and will stretch out over time. Floor seams do not stretch out much above ground level and will hold water due to their stitching design.

Biggest flaw is that there is no way to secure the doors out of the way. No Velcro, toggles, nothing but a pocket that you can try to shove the material into and hope that a breeze won't blow it out of the pocket and leave it flapping around.

Not recommended for regular backpacking use, but if the tent is well cared for and the seams regularly sealed, it could last several seasons under infrequent or moderate usage. At the price point of this tent there are a lot of other brands producing tents that are higher quality and lighter.
