Bought this for my first 4 season tent. It has been about 6 months but I have put it through the test. Rain, wind, snow, you name it. This tent passed. I took a thermometer to see the temp difference. 17-20°F (w/o wind-chill) outside, 30-38°F inside. I was more than comfortable in my sleeping bag for the night. Takes about 10 minutes to set up solo
I have used this on many back packing hikes and for my 6 years of scouting . This tent is the only you need on the west coast. Keeps me dry for all those scout camps in the winter.
