Item #BLD0892 | 12 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Nice Mesh!

By Ranked #835 - 3-Season Tents May 28, 2009

I have owned this tent for about 3 years or so and I like it. It is very light and worked very well at the bottom of the Grand Canyon when it was super hot. The mesh allowed for air circulation.
However, I agree with the earlier comment about sealing the seams...do it...with lots of sealant. I never had the seams leak but did have condensation.
Condensation reared its' ugly head at Yellowstone when it had rained all night and got down into the high 30's. Another night during my RAGBRAI trip it rained and condensation was a problem again.
Seems as though when you button up condensation becomes a problem otherwise I enjoy this tent.
