I have only had one chance to use the tent so far, but it was on a cold fall night, about 38 degrees, and it held up well. it is a thin tent but it stayed relatively warm. I like that it is small and compact to keep on a bag for hiking. I dont know what murdersux was talking about but the rain-fly, when installed correctly, kept the dew off just as it was supposed to do, and after letting the fly dry off for a while the next day, all folded back up with the rest of the tent and fit back into the bag nicely. Just fold it up on the original fold lines as it came. As for buying a wal-mart tent instead, the sunnyside is much better quality, with light and strong poles, strong zippers and good stitching. It is fairly expensive but it is a tent, when kept in good care, should last you a lifetime.
