IMO, you can't buy a better tent! I don't give many glowing reviews because I'm hard to impress. But, I scoured through all the 2 person tents out there and couldn't be happier with this one. I wanted a bug screen upper main body so I can see the stars. Check. I abhor complicated pole design as I think it weakens the structure and it can mean weaker poles. Check. Burly in storms. Check. The price is insanely low for extremely high quality. Check. What more could you ask for? OK, the tent stakes are throw away- get some tri beam ones. The two side guy loops for the rain fly need some additional cording to be functional but I can tie a knot so no big deal there. Helluva tent!

Good tent for the price…
Good quality tent for the price; performs well in mild climates.
