Is the mesh 'no-see-um-proof? and has it proved to be durable? Also, are there any seams running along the bottom of the floor of the tent? Thanks!!

Nothing gets through the screen. The floor is "tub walled" and of course I have set it up, in what seemed to be a great area, till the creek formed underneath, stayed perfectly dry. You will want a footprint, adds years to its life

Yes, the mesh is no-see-um proof. Yes, there is a seam running across the floor, but it's sealed and has never been an issue. Still, get and use the footprint. Four years, moderate to heavy use, a little worse for wear, but all in all, durable. We've got 3 BA tents. If I wasn't happy, we would have stopped at one.
