I love this tent ! Replaced Old MSR Prophet
4 years ago
I use my tents everywhere world wide. I did add adjusters to the loops on periphery of the bottom of fly where there was just loops so i didn't have to remove stakes as tent contracted when drying. When I crawl in I am confident no matter what happens outside I will be safe and dry. I really do love this tent.

Moisture inside tent
7 years ago
Condensation inside and poor waterproof is the top problem of that tent. I visited Iceland, Norway and North part of Finland with that tent. It was terrible that after each night I should dry all my stuff because of condensation. I tried to open all doors it's does not work. No any ventilation in a fly of tent - it's terrible. The worst tent which I used. I strongly recommend MSR to try that tent in countries with hight humidity and rainy weather because of Remote 3 - it's 4 season tent. Frankly speaking I was a fan of MSR but now I'm looking for another tent instead of Remote 3 because I tired to dry tent, dry sleeping bag, dry everything what located in a Remote3.

Great winter tent

We used it for 2 nights while mountain climbing in BC at the end of December. Seems well-built and waterproof.

So bummed!
7 years ago
I loved the room of this tent and huge vestibule. However, I am so bummed that there is no ventilation in the fly at all, and very little ability to cross draft. We tried everything, and as professionals in the industry, we know tents and how to use them. The water cycle was fully present inside this tent, leaving us and our gear inside damp and dripped on. Just returned from guiding a 12 day expedition and was disappointed to deal with major condensation problems. Great job on the lightweight, roomy design, but please, add vents!

Awesome tent!
4 years ago
Seems to be a very well made tent with great features. Now has proper ventilation in the rain fly. I think that was the biggest issue prior to the updated model. I will be back to update this review as soon as the snow flies and I can get it in the mountains! So far, very impressed. I plan to have this for a long time, and it seems like it is sturdy enough that it will hold up well.
