Reviews overview
This is what other customers say:
I'm a long and old bugger, so a particular perspective. I'm well up fer challenges, but I like to be warm and dry at night. I'm in the UK, so the last few years warmer and wetter, therefore feeling colder generally.
Great weight (lovely an light), but at the cost of too little material, mostly mesh means little body heat retention. After researching for awhile and hitchin about to try tents, this was the best by a mile of a poor lot.
Also minimalistic fly saves a few grammes and lets the outside wetness into me feet and head with heavy wetness of the night not covered by the head or foot of the fly when they touch the tent inner, not protected by the fly.
After sales support was really great for a both a blow down pole snap in powerful blustery winds, and for a later problem. This may sound negative for 4 star, but it's a grand roomyvestibuley tent and I've really enjoyed it on the whole.
Another possible problem with mostly mesh inner is that food odours may escape. I returned to tent on one trip to find food had been raided, and tent badly ripped, I think by squirrel (S carolinensis), so now need for airtight containers may add to weight or packing cost.
I think maybe there's no ideal tent fer the likes of me, but this is OK.
Just get out there and do it.
And think and learn.
