Excellent two person tent. Will fit two XL Luxury Camp Thermorests perfectly, with no room to spare. Dual vestibules and doors are great for storage, separate exit/entry, and cross ventilation when needed, or you can zip the fly to keep things nice and toasty on frosty nights (also has fly vents if needed). Headroom is crawl in and sit up only, but nice and cozy when nested. Buy the factory footprint! (Got mine from Backcountry...good folks and fast delivery). Tent, fly, and footprint fit poles nicely and set up easily in less than five minutes. The pole system is simple to erect, even by flashlight. Stuff sack, stakes, etc are all good quality and work well. Can't really think of any cons. We found the reason they have a bottom/middle stake out cord on each end of the fly....staking those two points will prevent any casual condensation at head or foot end of tent where clearances between tent/fly are minimal. Just came back from two weeks in N.D., Montana, Wyoming, etc. Temps ranged from 85 to 35, some rain, wind. Worked well in all environments. Definitely strong three season tent, maybe 3.5 with good bags. We were using Marmot Trestle 15's and slept very comfortably in jockeys and T's on coldest nights in Yellowstone.
