I bought this tent because my parents wanted me to have a very good 4-season tent. I really like the two doors, and combined with the ceiling vent the ventilation is quite good. I like the strength of it's structure and it looks very nice also. All in all a very good 4-season tent.

Great 3/4 season tent. Could have a little better ventilation on the top, but the trade off is additional weight and cost. I like the vent on the top because of the overhang. It allows you some ventilation even when it's raining. Floor is bathtub design (minimizes leakage when camped out in a severe storm when everything is a puddle)except for a main seam running across the tent. I wished they put extra seam tape on, but they do give you a bottle of seam sealer and the seam is double stitched. The 2 entrances/exits are nice especially since they have a vestibule on each side. Muddy shoes on one side and kitchen on the other. Pretty sturdy against wind, but could be a little stiffer.

After many weeks of comparing every tent know to mankind my wife and I purchased this one. It has an extensive list of amenities the least of which is not the huge vestible. We found the tent to have ample room for us as well as plenty of room for our packs. We have taken the tent to desert as well as mountain climates and it has always performed perfectly. Until this past trip. We finally got caught in a rain storm and found the first negative aspect about the tent. While the rain fly and ventilation were fine. The floor got soaked. I swear the floor of this tent is a sponge. We will be taking the tent back to the store this weekend. If it weren't for the floor this tent would be as close to perfect as you could find. Unfortunately we have down bags and a leaking tent is totally unacceptable.

My wife and I bought this tent for use by the two of us and our two dogs. This is a perfect tent for this use because with two entrances there is an entrance for you and one for your dog(s). Actually, the dogs do not stay in the tent per se but in the vestibule area. We still had access to them as they reacted to the goings-on outside but we could enter and exit without disturbing them. Another benefit of the two doors is the ventilation which is excellent when coupled with the ceiling vent. The only negative for this tent is its weight which is higher than other similar sized two person tents.
