Perfect tent
Yes , I recommend this product
This is as perfect a solo tent as you can get out of the box. At 6' 4", I use a long sleeping bag, and the tent is long enough and has at least 6" of room on the side of my 20" pad. Plenty of room for sitting up. Love the zipper that allows access to the little vestibule on the opposite side from the door (not shown in the pictures). I removed the little stuff sacks from the guylines because they seem a little silly. One very nice detail is that Exped includes a patch of Gear Aid tape and a couple of extra zipper pulls and plastic clips that go where the tent attaches to the crossbar pole, in case you need to make repairs. I've only slept in the tent one night, in the back yard, but it was fairly windy and the tent seemed sturdy.

Love it!
Yes , I recommend this product
Been using this tent for a couple months now and it continues to impress me. Plenty of interior space and it’s easy to sit up and move around. Quality is great. The large vestibule is especially useful.
