By Ranked #1317 - 3-Season Tents September 15, 2008

Marmot makes good stuff but this fell a little short. Pros: It's a great tent in fair to mild weather, easy to set up with the clips and has the convenience of two doors. Cons: 1,The zippers are too small and flimsy and get stuck easily. 2, It takes too long to figure out which way the fly goes. (Maybe it's me.) 3, Used it for two nights last month on Lake Sakakawea, North Dakota, and it collapsed on me in a storm while I was lying there thinking about how much money I saved.
