Ranked #29 - 3-Season Tents

It's shocking to me that no one has reviewed this tent yet. The bottom line is this: you'll have a hard time finding a better tent than this one. I've spent a whole lot of nights in this thing, in conditions ranging from hail to heavy rains to light snowfalls (couple inches). I've never had any condensation inside - not a drop. It pitches easily (even at 1 a.m. in pitch dark), is incredibly taut, and stands up extremely well in high wind. Oh, and it's obscenely big inside + 2 vestibules.
I'd suggest reading the editor's choice award review from backpacker's magazine (google it). I've owned a lot of tents over the years and this one is hands down the best 3-season I've ever owned or used. Like most things in life you get what you pay for, and you get every dime's worth with the Aeolos.
