I love this tent. the tadpole is my first tent; i did alot of research and if you are looking for a simple two person tent that is light and can with stand the windy weather then the tadpole is for you. the only draw back that leads be back to the shopping isle is that it is kind of small.I lived out of my tadpole for a whole summer in colorado as a raftguide, and now i am looking for a three person or maybe a fourperson with a little more room.so if you need alot of room for your pack and your roomies stuff, maybe think twice on a bigger size tent. I still love this tent though and am glad i have it for light packing.
