Good Tent, Not Great

I'll keep this simple. This tent is well made, storm worthy, and light. I didn't like the design with just one single pole over the spine of the tent... it tends to deflect from side to side in strong lateral winds. I also don't like the front entrance... it is hard to get in and out... especially with gear in it. This tent is not a bad choice, just not my personal favorite... but, for the money there aren't may lighter.
