This is for the Quest Starlight, all mesh with a solid rain fly easy to set up a Y hub, one long back spine pole and some odd smaller poll you insert into the front Eyelets.
I have used this tent for many years and found another on Ebay for $40.00 I like it that much.
It holds well in the wind and rain and fully closed keeps you warm on cold nights. With full mesh this is a great 3 season star gazer indeed.
Quest had some great designs but went out of business my guess is that it had some issues in its infancy that plagued them to the end.
This s a heavy tent for being a mesh hut great room for one large person I am 6'3" and have room tho stretch vestibule is OK for small pack and boots. Great stitching and YKK zippers.

Bought a Quest viper tent in '98. Somehow I managed to lose all the poles to set it up. If anyone could help me with this it would be greatly appreciated. Any type of instructions might also help.

I have had this tent for 10 years. It was still standing after a tornado took out all the other tents and some roofs off of building. Never leaked never failed me. It went to Nepal and all over the Pacific Northwest. Only thing it takes time to figure out the set up. I got so used to it I can set it up in the dark. Best tent I ever owned.

Yep, same old story. I was given a Quest Viper in pretty good shape but no instructions. Putting on the fly is the puzzler. I don't really have a vestibule the way I did it. Any help out there? Also, I could use a pole or two if available.

Can anyone # of poles and pole lengths? I set the tent up and it seems to be missing a pole. Does anyone still have set up directions?

Thanks in advance

This is about a Quest tent I bought 10 YEARS AGO and still have! It was advertised to nail into rock and hold you if you rolled in the night. I have camped in this tent over 400 times and it is as strong today as the day I bought it. I have weathered (mostly on the beach) winds and horizontal rain up to 45-50 mph with no problem. Once my friend's tent came down during a rough storm so we moved into mine for hours till it passed. A+++ recomended

I am about 5'11'' and this tent is perfect for me and one other person. I have had my Viper for about 6 years now and do mostly car camping with a few day hikes and absolutely love the tent. It is super easy to setup and has plenty of room for 2 and gear(especially with fly on. Been in rain and wind and it held up like a champ. Easy to setup.

Customer Service

Customer service is non-existant since they no longer make this tent or any Quest tents for that matter.

I have had my "Viper" for six (6) years. It had been very, very good to me. This weekend while on a SAR training excercise we got caught on the side of a mountain, and it rained all night, and my "viper" leaked like a sieve. Now I understand that they do not make my tent anymore. That really SUCKS! I paid a substantial amount for good equipment, with a guarantee. What good is a guarantee if you cannot get your stuff replaced. If I did not like my tent, it would be different. I like my tent, and I want it to perform as advertised..MIKE

This is more of a request for help than a review...I have a 1998 Quest Viper and have been extremely happy with it. Unfortunately, my roommate's dog got tangled up in it the other day. The poles are fine, but the tent and fly are damaged beyond repair. I contacted North Pole, the manufacturer of Quest tents. They said they have not produced the Viper since 1999 and that it might be possible to get a replacement fly, but not a tent. I've never seen a tent I liked as well as the Viper, and I really, really want another one. Does anyone know of any way to find a new/like new Viper for sale? I know my chances are slim to none, but it's worth a try. Thanks.
