MSR Skinny Too Tent 2-Person 3- Season
The MSR Skinny Too Tent handles a surprising amount of burly weather, provides tons of storage space, and does it all for well under four pounds. A large vestibule lets you get in and out without letting the weather in as well, and a foot-level vents keeps that air flowing even in bad weather. MSR’s fully taped SilNylon, single-wall design includes several guy-line points to increase structural support during those times when you find the weather to be worse than you expected.
Bottom Line: Light doesn’t mean featureless.
Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.
Everyone else has it right...

MSR has a sweet little tent in the skinny too. it is light, it is nice and roomy, and it is well-priced. i would say you can't go wrong with it. biggest beef i had is that it is single wall, so no stargazing through the ceiling, but when the weather rolls in you'll be glad you had this guy. longest i used it for was a pictured rocks through-hike, and i hardly even noticed it was in my pack. great buy!
easy to use and light weight

I got this early spring 2009 when it first came out. I mainly purchased this tent because i wanted a light single wall tent with good ventilation. I dont mind it being a non-free standing tent, I normally guy my tent out anyways even if it is a free standing. Setup is a breeze if you practice in your backyard a couple times before your first real use. With ventilation, the tubular setup allowed a breeze to constantly flow straight through. almost no condensation. The back window gives a great view of the sky at night and is easy to zip up if it starts to rain. The vestibule is roomy enough for two 40 pound packs and boots.
The inside of the tent has no storage, except for a little pocket in front by the door.
