I'm a 6 ft tall woman, and wanted a tent to be compact enough to carry on the motorcycle, but roomy enough to hold me and my stuff at night. I don't like to spend foolishly... who does?... and this tent turned out to be a good purchase. I would rate it higher, but the pole for the rainfly was indeed a bit too long. Other reviewers warned about this. I bent that pole getting it in! oops! But then it didn't seem to be a problem in subsequent uses. Happy camping!

Absolutely no complaints about this tent at all. Took it to Rocky Mountain Natl Park for 4 days and it performed very well...for far less money than a Marmot or MSR tent. The only thing I would change would be to add some extra material on the rain fly so you could have a small porch in front of the entrance. Other than that, it's super light, free-standing, and easy to set up and clean out.

I just came back from 3 nights of car-camping with this tent and I really loved it. I bought it because i wanted a tent that could squeeze into small or hilly camping sites. I first saw it reviewed on a military.com website, which recommended it as a high quality but inexpensive tent. I am 6' tall but had no problem changing clothes inside (at least head-wise. I did bang the sides with my arms). Not alot of room inside for a duffel bag, but I kept most stuff outside the tent since it wasn't raining. Everything seemed high quality. There are attachments for a 'ceiling loft' but I don't think it would be practical to put one in as you'd always be banging into it as you go in and out of the tent. Regarding some people's concerns about having to saw off the pole for the rain fly because it wouldn't fit: put one end in a hole, set that end on the ground and use pressure from your knee to bend the pole so that the other end can fit in - just like stringing a bow for archery.

Overall this seems like a great tent, though I haven't actually used it outdoors yet. It is a little heavier than what you can get for another $100/200 more from REI or other places, but it's EXTREMELY roomy inside, which was a reasonable sacrifice for me. Set up is very simple, 2 poles, stands alone. Great all around deal.

I love this tent. It is light, packs small, yet still free standing and at 6'2" I have plenty of room and can easily sit up in it. Being tall and thin, I thought the tent's weakness would be wind, but it held up to a big wind storm for me beautifully while other tents collapsed (just be sure it up in line with the wind). Works great without the fly on warmer rainless nights! With the fly, the tent stays warm, does not get too humid, and does well in the rain. I really wish it had a vestibule, but there is actually room inside for my pack too so I'm not really missing it.
