Perfection

Great tent. The description hits the nail on the head. We even fit 3 people in this tent for one of our outings. Only complaint is in order to hold up the vestibules securely you have to attach them with three points each. Kind of a pain if you don't have a perfect pitch site. Also on the main vestibule it would have been nice to include a small square zipper vent. When cooking steam from boiling water builds up, to circumvent this you have to have one of the doors partially open. The problem is that they don’t really want to stay wide open and are not placed specifically for venting steam from cooking. So they either flop back inside and get in the way, or they don't let all the steam out and you still get moisture inside. We just ended up opening one of them up half way and sacrificed a little lost warmth. Other than that this tent is awesome.
