"I am 6' tall, weigh 210lbs. and I am near 60 years old. I agree with what the other reviewers have said about this tent, being (packs small, light weight, great bug, and weather protection, great small tent). I would like to comment on the things I don't like about this tent. #1. Very difficult to get in, and out of. #2. If you have to change clothing, you have to do it outside. #3. Very difficult to get into your sleeping bag, once inside this tent. #4. Not much room inside to move around in, can barely have room to scratch your butt.
I love the ideal of this tent, it's a neat little tent, but I rarely use mine. "
"i have had this tent for just over a year now and i love it. i have gotten no inside condensation that people speak of. also this tent is pretty good in the rain. the one flaw i have found is that it is sort of hard to get in to"
"I've owned this tent for 3 years now and have always loved it. I just recently used it on a backpacking trip and you have to know that it is a ONE MAN tent, no more room than that. With that said, it weighs nothing, easy to set up, and dry. It's all-in-one and must be stacked to the ground. Great one man tent."
"I have used this tent now on several late september hikes in north central pa, with temps dropping into the 30's on occasion, and several nights spent with downpours. this is strictly a one-man tent, but can accomodate a fairly large (6') person easily. you slide into this tent, as sitting or kneeling are not possible. once in the tent though, the large screen makes the tent seem more like a compact tarp with great ventilation (and great view if you leave the top rolled). it is dry in a storm, and i haven't seen as much condensation as others have noted, though it may be draining outside the screen. if the side stakes are placed close to the tent, you add several degrees of cold tolerance (your body seems heat the small volume of the tent somewhat). the "vestibule" is just enough to keep my boots dry; i usually "bear-bag" my pack anyway to avoid porcupines etc.. it is not freestanding, though only a little pressure is placed on the stakes so marginal staking is sufficient (e.g, placing stakes half-way in due to rocks...seems to work ok). it seems to handle moderate wind ok without flapping. it may be a bit small to spend a full day awake, but if you hike in the rain, this is not an issue. the material is thicker but the size is smaller than most 1-man silnylon ultralightweight tarp systems (when dry base and bug protection are included), so the overall weight is about the same. if what you seek is a dry, bug-free, reasonably durable, lightweight place to sleep horozontally, this is it."
