Eureka ERK2629084 Midori 1 Person Tent, Aspen Gold & Oil Blue

Great solo tent, very roomy and easy to setup. Went backpacking around 11000 feet in late fall, wind gusts up to 70mph and this tent held up like a champ. Small enough footprint to hide in the trees. Only downside was the stakes that were supplied were a little too lightweight and bent easily. Love the supplied loft and the bonus vestibule on the back. The front vestibule was large enough to store my pack and the tent was a perfect height to make coffee in the morning without leaving the comfort of my sleeping bag. Great windbreak from an otherwise miserable windy and cold weekend. Packs down small enough to not have to strap on the outside of my pack as well. Yes there are lighter tents out there but they are mostly too compact, expensive and are made with ultralight/thin materials. This tent fit my price point perfectly.

I have both a Midori 1, and Midori 2 tent. I am very happy with these tents. The materials are excellent, the workmanship is excellent, and the design is excellent. The Midori 1 works very well for someone my size. I am 5' 10" tall. I can sit up, turn around and lay down in the tent resting with my hands behind my head and my elbows out without rubbing on the insides of the tent, which is how a judge a single person tent for practical use. The weight of the tent is good and the pack size is nice and compact. The rainfly, doors, and zippers all work well. I only have a couple of small things to suggest or pick at. I feel that the tie-out locations on the rainfly are too low on the tent. They should be located higher up on the tent for better stability in windy conditions. I also think the little vent window in the top of the rainfly should have more Velcro across it so it seals up better when closed in stormy conditions. Lastly, I think there should be some sort of change made to the vestibules on the tent so they don't flap in the wind. Either another tie-out point added to the bottom edge of the vestibule or a different cut to the shape. It just totally flaps in the wind with no way to keep it tight along the bottom. Other than that, love the tent and would recommend it. Eureka continues to make excellent products!
