OK, Bought this tent for use on my non-hiking scout campouts. Absolutely love it. Although I've yet to use it in the peak of the Florida summer, I've had no problems what-so-ever with this tent. Best of all, I can stand straight up inside, and it's big enough for my queen size air mattress (like I said...for non-hiking trips) for those occasional moments when my wive agrees to go camping with me. Was fairly easy to asseemble, was able to do completely on my own. Rain-fly system adequately covers the entirely mesh roof and helps in providing for air flow in the tent. Would strongly recommend getting the footprint that is provided by North Face, will be make the most out of this tent and greatly prolong the lifetime of the tent.
