great tent especially for tall people
Yes , I recommend this product
Great tent. Light weight and free standing. I especially like the inside height and the two alcoves for extra gear or in my case, extra length for sleeping. I use this tent solo. I am 6'6" and it is nice to not hit the ends of the tent when lying down.

Great Tent!
Yes , I recommend this product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super lightweight and very easy to setup/breakdown. I wish the tent poles collapsed down to be a bit shorter but maybe that's how a lot of them are these days and I just haven't had a new tent in a while? Love the color too! Excited to test this out some more on some backpacking trips!

Great, lightweight tent
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife and I were looking for a lightweight tent for backpacking that was roomy and had two entries. Not only did the Limelight UL have that, it also had two interior side compartments for gear. Great tent!

Another excellent Marmot tent. (Superalloy 3 user)
Yes , I recommend this product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not a gimmick, the odd wings add space and comfort in 2-person. And encourages the sensible head-to-foot sleeping position. 2P tents usually feel tight to me. Not this one. Good quality as usual.

Wet exits
Decent tent with a rainfly door issue unless you enjoy a cold wet rag drawn across your back during most all exits. Half the price most anywhere else so quit shopping REI

Fantastic ultralight tent
Yes , I recommend this product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my go to backpacking tent for its weight and durability. Nothing like sleeping under the starts while keeping the bugs away!

Open the vents
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great tent, it was sweating or keeping humidity but it was because I didn't open the vents overnight
