Fanastic tent for 2-5 with full expedition baggage!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good base camp. Stands in 15 minutes. Strong and convenient. Used it in Canada and west cost (state of Washington). Slept with 4 with all luggage. Cooking inside possible. Good ventilation. Fiber poles needs to proof on longer term and stronger winds.
Yes , I recommend this product

I would not buy this tent again for our particular use.

We have used this tent in Katmai National Park, Alaska where weather dictates everything as a gathering tent. PROS: Solid constructed tent, vents are great, removeable floor exceptional as we use it without floor installed. Tent overall withstood 50mph winds. CONS: Center pole supporting rainfly is extremely low and prevents people from standing up. Numerous heads were knocked on the pole when trying to stand up. During winds over 30mph the center pole would move sometime off the reinforced area and have to constantly adjust even though the interior tensioning devise was tightened. I feel a better design would have a pole going over the top to support the rainfly like the 4-person tent allowing people to stand up inside of the tent.
No, I do not recommend this product
