Lightweight, but fragile
1 month ago
I love the weight of the tent, it's excellent for reducing pack weight. Unfortunately, mine broke after a single night of use. I was hiking in an alpine area, set up camp in the best area to reduce the amount of wind, and one of the poles broke before dawn. It's all super lightweight, but I think that worked against it when it come in contact with the actual elements.

Perfect little tent

Awesome tent- it's wide enough for a wide sleeping pad and has extra room by the head for a backpack. It's a perfect size, honestly, and therefore is super cozy. I'm 5'9 and fit comfortably in the tent with space at my head, but someone that's taller might touch the wall especially if they use a thick sleeping pad due to the sloping walls at the head and foot. I set it up with the side directly against the wind (around 15 mph), and it was super stable when staked out, but when it wasn't, it was twitchy. Overall, I'm super impressed with the quality, ease of setup, and weight. Only thing that I would recommend is the footprint because the material is super thin.

Amazing Tent
3 weeks ago
Extremely lightweight and very easy to setup The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because one of my poles cracked after my 6th time using it. I do wish it was maybe 2 or 3 inches longer. I’m 6’1 and it is a little tight.

lightweight but fragile

Unfortunately I had to return the tent after just one use, as I got a small hole on the tent fly, it’s simply to fragile, I paid a lot of money for the tent and I was not willing to keep it like this.
