Great tent but a little short on length

The North Face Vector 22 Tent 2-Person 3-Season

Rating for this product: 4 February 18, 2010

I purchased this tent in 2006 I believe and have used it ever since. It is a great tent but has one main drawback: small interior floor space.

Pros:
Rock solid design - very stable in high winds, lightweight yet very strong material. While not a 4 season tent, I have taken her out in the winter around 9,000' in Colorado with snow on the ground it was fine - that has more to do with what sleeping bag you have but if we got dumped on with snow I think the tent would have held up fine.

Super easy setup - poles glide seamlessly through sleeves

Lightweight - for it's size, it's pretty damn light.

Cool features - glow-in-the-dark zipper pulls, color coordinated poll ends and tent & rainfly attachments, reflective guylines and zipper pulls, two big internal pockets, stuff sack included!

Cons:
Small interior space - fitting two people is possible and okay as long as they are not big folks and sleep "head to foot". If you are over 6' I wouldn't recommend this tent if you plan on using it with other people.

The North Face could have come up with a better way to attach the rainfly to the tent's pole attachments once the tent has been set up (I set up the tent and then as I put on the rainfly, I have to pull out each pole from their respected eye-hole (attachment at the base of the tent) and feed the rainfly in and then attach the tent again -- I know this sounds confusing but it seems to offer the best stability and seems to be a little backward).

Overall it's a great tent that could use a few extra inches in length. I certainly recommend it to anyone as a solo tent, a solo tent + a dog, or two small people.

great jacket

The North Face Diad Jacket - Men's

The North Face Diad Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 August 4, 2008

Great jacket for backpacking and more. A bit short for an everyday rain jacket but decent.

Hood is great - you can fix it so that it turns with your dome.
