This tent is light and quite sturdy. Care must be taken when first inserting the poles to make sure they are seated in the reinforced corners before tensioning. The rest of the floor would be easily ripped by a tensioned pole. Ventilation is quite good with two door model. Air flows right thru. If you are tall, this is not the tent for you. Get the Eldorado model instead. My long sleeping bag has to bend 90 degrees to the side for the last foot of the bag too fit inside. I would not want to be stuck in this tent for a long storm with two people. It does however provide alot more protection for 2 people from weather than comparable bivy sacks for about the same weight.
