I've used it 12x, 2-3 day backpacking trips.

It's not ultra-light, it's double-wall, and durable. This thing is a total tank. That's what I was looking for, personally. Mine came with a gear loft and footprint. It's held up to heavy rain and solid wind during a storm at 1100ft, and I didn't use every guy-out during. It's slept in thick, wet river-mud, and wet-sand on 2 Kayaking trips. Zero leaks. I've slept in it down to 20*F, with some very light snow, and no problems. The vestibules are large, and I put my 70L bag, chair, and boots on one side. I've mainly slept with my lady, two full size air mattresses with some space in between. I'm 5'11, and don't touch head or feet. My 55lb Husky/Shepard sleeps at my feet on her own foam mattress. I can't say enough good things about this tent, and the price-point is doable on a budget. I've experienced minimal condensation. If I had to say anything negative about it, it's that at 80*F with 70% humidity, it got a little toasty inside... so I'll blame the tent? :D

Minimum Weight?

I look forward to trying out this tent, but I was disappointed that the listed minimum weight was 4# 15 oz when ordered, and the minimum weight on the tent says 5# 5 oz. While not a deal breaker, the weight had a big influence on my comparison shopping.
