MSR Zoid II
By Paul K.
Ranked #848 - 3-Season Tents
April 4, 2011
I have had this tent for several years and it has served me well in pouring rain and heat. The materials are great and it's built very well. There are some major drawbacks though. One...it's not free standing and because of the shape is hard to set up taught. Consequently no matter how careful you are it always sags and flaps in a wind. Two......condensation seems to form on the ceiling in certain conditions. Three....if you are tall as I am there is not much room to sit up on the high end. Four......it's better as a one person tent than two. I only used it once with someone else and it was very cramped.
