Great mid-weight backpacking tent
I bought it as a backpacking tent for me and my girlfriend. It's definitely plenty spacious for two and has a lot of great pockets and storage built in so there's lots of ways to organize. I thought we'd use the big door a lot more than we do but we both tend to just use the doors through the vestibules. It's lighter than the tent it was replacing but not as light as my Copper Spur, but I use that mainly for long backpacking trips, this is something we use for quick 1-2 night trips and split i between the two fo us. My only concern is the white colour over time, but we'll see how it weathers.
A surprisingly great tent
I was looking for a luxurious tent for two that still came in under six pounds and this tent did not disappoint. There is plenty of space for two and the dual vestibules are generously sized. Its unique shape really improves its functionality with nearly vertical walls. The rear shelf was an instant hit. I wasn't sure I would use the third door much but it definitely opens up scenery-gazing opportunities. The build quality is great. My only beef is that the pole bag is very thin and got chewed up immediately. But what self-respecting ultralighter carries a pole bag anyway?
Excellent Semi-Lightweight Text
I use for car camping, and shorter backpack trips. At 5.3lbs it's a little heavier than my minimal 2.3lb solo backpacking text, but excellent for short trips where I plan to stay a few days. It does take up quite a bit of space in the backpack (only negative) but the extra 3 lbs for the size and comfot can't be beat. It also held up to 35 mile an hour winds and rain on an Atlantic Coast noreaster, sucked having to pack it up during that though. Also, basically a bug net with a large fly, which is perfect for warmer weather camping/stargazing. Excellent views without the fly, and super dry with it when needed. Good construction, the zippers pull well and don't get stuck. Extra storage net insite on the top in nice, but cant hold anything too heavy, it slids out. Great side pockets though. Also, the main door flap on the fly is a little annoying if you dont have poles to hold it up, I use the sides for entrace/exit.
