Comments about Kelty Villa 6 Tent:
We loved the ease of entry, height, doors, and plentiful storage pockets, as well as the vents in the fly.
The four very heavy poles and aerodynamic shape seem like they would stand up to heavy winds, and we came through several very heavy (albeit with only light winds) rainstorms with no leaks or dampness inside.
Unfortunately, the door zipper on the fly blew out, because the fly was simply miscut or misdesigned--there was way too much strain on the door area of the fly and no amount of jiggering with the stakes, poles, or guy line relieved the strain on the zipper.
So we returned it, for an exact exchange, hoping that the fly was simply miscut. Too our dismay it was exactly the same on the replacement. We camped in it on one more trip and prayed the zipper didn't blow out....and then exchanged it...for an as yet to be determined different model...
