DO NOT BUY THIS TENT UNLESS YOU READ THIS: This tent is designed for one person to take backpacking/hiking with them. It is NOT designed for comfort, it is not designed for two people, and it is not designed for people over 6 feet tall. Do not buy this tent if you want something you can spend waking hours "hanging out" in. This is a lightweight tent designed to keep you dry and mosquito free while you sleep, and it functions incredibly well for this purpose. I'm 5'11" and fit just perfectly in the tent - I could lay without my head or feet touching - but only barely. I had to be creative with my gear to keep it dry - there is space under the rain fly outside of the tent where I put my unloaded pack to keep it dry. This worked perfectly, and all my gear (unloaded) would fit around me inside the tent. I used this tent every day for 27 straight days on the Superior Hiking Trail. It kept me perfectly dry through 7 thunderstorms. This was probably my favorite product I had with me on the trip. The tent stakes are needed to erect the tent - it isn't free standing. In other words, if you'll be camping in the mountains, this probably won't work for you. I didn't have any problems on the SHT. WHO SHOULDN'T BUY THIS TENT? If you're over 6' tall, camping from your car, looking to spend waking hours (more than maybe an hour or two) inside a tent or camping on rocky surfaces, this tent isn't for you. Look elsewhere, you'll be disappointed by this. WHO SHOULD BUY THIS TENT? A hiker or backpacker looking to cut weight out of their pack will be absurdly pleased with this product. It will serve all the needs of a dedicated backwoodsman - it is high quality, durable, and keeps you dry out of the box. If you fall into the category of "cutting ounces from my hiking pack" and are on a budget, make this purchase. It will meet your needs perfectly.
