Great design
Backyard setup withstood series of down pours and windy storms. Threw a tarp down, an old sleeping bag, 30 degrees.Read a book and watched. The seams are all sealed with tape but 2 pesky toggles sewn through dripped. Downpour, remember? A little silicone fabric glue/sealer on a paint brush to solve that. Tyvec ground cloth. Good to go. With a pvc pipe cap tied in the top loop a set of trekking poles can be lashed together handle to handle to save weight. I love the space!

Used for 6 days
This Tarp just did not work for me. Used during cold nights and mild day temps. There is no bug screen in the door or windows, but one in the vent at the top, so the bugs come in, go to the top, and can't get out. I had a lot of condensation at night, so much so the top of my sleeping bag was wet. I don't know how 4 people could use this without 2 of them getting soaked over night. Easy to set up though. Getting low enough to the ground to zip/unzip the door zipper from the inside is cumbersome.
Pros:
- Fast easy set up
Cons:
- no bug screen
- dificult to operate zipper from inside
Would recommend: No
Good design, good construction, good product.
FOR...Just under 6lb ready to hike with and once erected and guyed out it is a very stable tent.
The skirts should keep the cold out as they readily seal the tent up without anything on them.
Guyouts are quality parts.
Reflective tape on tent.
AGAINST...The colour - how about green/grey?
Guyout lines not reflective.
The tent won't go back into the 'store' bag - should come with a compression bag as when hiking you rarely put the tent away dry and neatly folded.
Aluminium pegs are worthless, buy some Ti pegs instead (5 for the tent sides, 5 for the guyouts).
When fully sealed it becomes obvious why the extra vent in the side is there - the tent becomes airless inside without leaving the door open a couple of inches. A fly-mesh vent with a popup cover would be a very good idea on the side opposite the large vent.
WHAT NEXT?...Shock cord and plastic hooks to stretch between the corners of adjacent skirt panels. Corner, around guyout peg, to next panel = tight skirts.
