This is a great tent.

I looked high and low for "the perfect tent" for backpacking in moderate weather and this one is it, as far as I am concerned.

It is very well constructed and light. I made the mistake of not rigging this in my backyard before taking out camping for the first time, and I have to admit, it took four adult scouters to figure out how to put it up in the dark! But once done, this is an easy one-man tent and not hard to put up once you figure out the geometry.

In terms of space, like all tents, it seems larger from the inside than out, but I'm 6'1" and I would not recommend this tent for folks who are 6'3" or taller. The vestibule (sold separately) is not heavy and well worth the effort to bring along. In a pinch you have enough room in the vestibule for another camper and gear. The vestibule does not come with a footprint/tarp, but easy enough to use a poncho spread on the ground in the vestibule to keep things dry. The tent does not have installed gear pockets (no big deal) and I would not recommend buying the gear loft (reduces headroom). Speaking of which, I was able to sit up in this tent with plenty of headroom.

Ventilation is really good with excellent cross flow that can be regulated if necessary. While I have not camped out with it in a downpour, this looks like a very waterproof tent, and I would not hesitate to take it in foul weather.

The tent pegs are awesome: I beat on them to drive them into rocky soli once, and they didn't bend or get dinged up -- most impressive! I did get the footprtint (good value).

Like I said -- great value abd a great tent. I have found exactly what I wanted.
