Great roomy tent for 2, lots of pockets for storage of the little stuffs. BUT I woke up every night for 3 nights with condensation built up.

Condensation is a fact of life; mitigation is the key. Vent the tent as much as you're comfortable with and if you still need more, try carrying a super-absorbent towel (like a shamwow) with you and lay it out in the top-most gear loft. That has worked well for me on particularly chilly nights when condensation's the worst.

In what conditions you were using your tent? The condensation worries me and I need someone to comment on how well it withstands windy conditions. Please help!
