Well made, poor design...

Ranked #630 - 4-Season Tents
July 8, 2008
I recently performed the first erection (pre-excursion test) of this tent. While it was well made their are 3 things that make it a poor tent. 1, tent doors do not match up to fly doors. 2. Vent/window on top of tent does not open well at all and was virtually useless. 3. the clips that hold the multiple poles together should be small metal carabiners not the plastic/metal mix which will require you to take gloves of to erect tent. I would not recommend this tent to anyone. So far this site standing behind my purchase and have issued me a RMA with no hassles. I will have no reservations ordering from them a replacement.
