I bought this tent to share with my kid (7 years old) while backpacking. We both fit with plenty of room to spare. I am 6’ and had plenty of room to sit up- probably a solid 8 inches of room above my head and I had no problems with condensation or anything like that. It didn’t rain so I can’t comment on that, but the rain fly is full coverage which is a great design. Not ultralight obviously, but not too heavy and it’s very well made. I do recommend getting the footprint and the floor is a little thin and I can see water seeping through during a rainstorm.
