Love this tent.
PROS:
- RainPROOF. Rained all night and not a drop inside.
- SOLID. The unique counterflexing design of the two poles gives this tent a 3 season plus rating. It puts extra resistance on the walls, and makes it very streamline and wind resistant. This could be used for mountaineering (though not quite for 4 season).
- Lightweight. Relative to its size and strength. Certainly not ultra light, but not super heavy either.
- Size. GREAT for anyone over 6 feet tall. Compared to the Hewolf two person I also purchased (and love), it is several inches longer....and has a similar, steep lower wall design.
- Color. Neutral. Best of both worlds. Does not attract bugs, and not visually obnoxious to others.
- Gear storage. Two vestibules and a mesh loft. Fantastic!
- Ventilation. No condensation despite rain and humidity. Not full mesh main body like the Hewolf, but still breathable enough in those conditions.
- Ease of entering/exiting. Two doors. Maximum versatility.
CONS:
- Not easy to set up! It took me almost a half hour the first time. Not terribly difficult once you have done it, but not intuitive! It's the design. The poles don't criss cross ahead of time. Each end of each pole actually goes into the same side (wall) of the tent....THEN cross with the clipping. It can be very confusing, but just takes some practice. Once you understand the concept, it's not bad. Though compared to the Hewolf, it's not as easy to set up for one person. *The benefit is the solid nature of the design. For the price point, it's built like a tank*
- Stakes. Just like the Hewolf and almost every other tent...they will bend rather easily in hard ground. Buy separate, heavier duty stakes....you won't regret it. Though I will say I have seen much worse than these.
- Color. Listed as a pro, but in the sense of being cheery inside.....not that great compared to the orange fly Hewolf. Not super dark though either, so not that bad.
- Zippers. Barely a con. They work fine, just not as smooth as the similarly priced Hewolf....which definitely skewed my impression/standard.
