My girlfriend and I got this tent a few weeks ago. We live in Florida and do a lot of trekking in warmer climates as well as other places in the US. This tent was icnredibly easy to set up. 1 person coudl easily do it, with 2 people it was up in less than 2 minutes. The trail weight and size was very condusive to backpacking. The tent itself is all mesh and we were able to see the stars and feel like we were sleeping outside. The dual door and vestibules are very helpful. One thing is I would suggest this tent for 2 people. We had 2 packs and 2 pads/sleeping bags and it fit but with 3 people it would be a tight squeeze.
Also the price of this tent makes it all the better. We looked at some others including a Marmot that lsited for double the price.
Bottom line...great tent for anyone looking to explore the outdoors.
