Comments about REI Half Dome 2 Plus Footprint:
For the dollars it works well. You can get by with a piece of plastic sheeting but this has a few advantages that make it worth it.
The big plus: Set the poles up into the foot print and put the rain fly over it and you can set it up in the rain. Throw the tent in under the rain fly and clip it in place. Nice and easy and everything is dry. That's really nice.
Also, it's already cut to fit and color coordinated with the tent poles for easy installation. Time I don't have to fuss with cutting something to fit.
All in all worth the extra for the ease of use and additional function. You could get by without it, but for what it is it's very good. I've done the rain set up with this tent and it was really great when compared to trying to setting the tent first and putting the rain fly on after. I'm glad to have it.
Comments about REI Half Dome 2 Plus Footprint:
from REI website: Footprints typically have a shiny (coated) side and dull (uncoated) side. You should place the dull side on the ground (shiny side facing up) in order to minimize abrasion on the coating.
Also read on another review that good trick is to take grommet from footprint and wrap up and over grommit of tent...so when putting pole in grommits it goes thru footprint grommit first and tent grommit second...that way footprint is attached to tent and can move it around easier as one unit together

Comments about REI Half Dome 2 Plus Footprint:
This is a great, lightweight footprint - a must have for the HD 2 Plus. However, I just wish the instructions were more clear. The instructions say to place the footprint "coated side up". Upon inspection, it's difficult to determine which is the coated side. Is it the tacky side with a rubbery coating, or is it the smooth side? Would it have been so difficult to print "this side up" or "this side down" on the footprint or give it some other distinguishing characteristic? So, other than poor instructions, the product is great.

Comments about REI Half Dome 2 Plus Footprint:
I would highly recommend purchasing the footprint for the REI Half Dome Plus tent. It fits perfect, and it easy to set up. You can also use it with just the fly for a super lightweight setup if needed.
