Quality construction as usual from Marmot...however I was disppointed in the design. The fly does not fold back easily. The ground tarp is nice but an unusual setup to connect to the body of tent. The zipper broke on the first night of use, which I assume is a freak accident. Good tent, but the design could be improved for cheap. Keep at it Marmot. BC made the return as easy as possible. Nice work

I have had this tent going on three years and have had no problems with it. It has been a great little tent.
