Hyperlight Tent 3-Person 3-Season

The Sierra Designs Hyperlight 3-Person 3-Season Tent gives you room for three at the weight of a two-person tent. The Jake's corners eliminate pole rotation that causes tents to weaken under stress, increasing the tent's strength by 40%, so you feel secure in stormy weather. Two doors eliminate steamroller exits when nature calls in the middle of the night, and a roomy five square foot vestibule for each door gives everyone plenty of storage space. Internal pockets keep tabs on headlamps, books, and other small items, and door-stash pockets prolong the doors' lifespan and cut down on clutter.

Bottom Line: Hike light and sleep well.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

Light, good size inside, 3 people is stretching it, but it can fit everyone inside in a pinch, without the gear obviously. I've had it for 3 years now, used in complete downpour, 30+ winds. It's a great tent, 5lbs a 2-3 person tent is pretty nice, Doesn't come with a footprint however, and sierra designs doesn't make one anymore, so will have to make one out of a nylon tarp and some gussets, but should be fine.
No issues with it what so ever. I'm going to waterproof it this year, the DWR has diminished a little, but still wont let water in. Love the two doors

Once properly staked out the tent sheds water like a duck , due to the silicone and PU treated fly.

Very stable tent and very water proof. However, the description is pushing the limits by calling it a 3 person tent. Not sure who designed this tent but two people over 5'10 don't fit well. The tent ends in a V shape. Which doesn't really work well for a tent. Might work well for smaller folks. The vestibules are accommodating for gear so you do save a bit of room there. Build quality good but design poor.

I do think that the 3 person rating is a little bit of a stretch, but i have done a week with two others and the only place that felt constricting was down at the feet. The kite shape of the tent allows for an arrow placement into the prevailing wind. I has held up to some really windy days when placed point into the wind.
