Might work great in the desert

The only good thing I can say is it's light- but when you're tent-bound, and soaked, that's little comfort. Took the Lighthouse climbing (based on BD's website implying it's being used at altitude) and it became a sponge after one wet night at basecamp. Higher up, it was plagued with copious condensation when even partially zipped up. If you ever have to set it up in a hurry (i.e. stormy condtions), there's a good chance you'll rip the floor/ walls with the poles. Considering the price, lack of a vestibule, and the time wasted sealing seams, I feel this was the worst tent purchase I've ever made.
