From EMS:
"There is "lightweight," there is also "ultralight," and then there are the tents made by Big Agnes. At only 3 pounds 7 ounces (max weight), the 1-person Sarvis is a dream come true for the ounce-counting backpacker. Hybrid single and double-wall construction saves weight. Freestanding design with front vestibule. Single-wall portion has two ridge vents and one foot vent. Full-mesh walls for excellent cross-ventilation. Single hub/pole system with DAC aluminum hub. Plastic clips attach the tent body to the pole frame for quick and easy setup. Floor and fly are 30-denier nylon ripstop with a polyurethane and silicone coating. All seams are taped."

From REI:
"Big Anges® has designed the Sarvis SL1+ with extra room across the middle--enough for you, your gear and your dog! The Sarvis SL features a freestanding, three-season, superlight hybrid design that combines single- and double-wall construction. Hybrid construction merges the weight savings of a single-wall tent with the flexibility and ventilation of a double wall. Fly, bathtub floor and single-wall section are made from lightweight ripstop nylon with a silicone treatment and a polyurethane coating. Double-wall tent body is made from no-see-em mesh offering lots of great ventilation and views outside. DAC Featherlite® hub/pole system has press-fit connectors and lightweight hubs. Ridge, foot and side vents in single-wall section combined with mesh tent walls offer ventilation when the fly is closed. Vestibule zipper has protective storm flap. Includes stuff sacks and lightweight V-peg stakes. Footprint (sold separately) extends the life of your tent by protecting it from abrasive wear and tear. Average minimum weight specification is based on tent, rainfly and poles only."

From Backcountry.com:
"The Big Agnes Sarvis SL 1-Person 3-Season Tent combines single- and double-wall designs to reduce weight without compromising breathability."

"For everyone wondering about size of this sucker there's a reason that they gave it a 1+ in the official naming. I borrowed the tent from my friend for a trip where we were school van camping around Bryce, Zion, and the Grand Canyon. She had previously used it a lot including our last trip to Moab and biking South on the Atlantic side of the Rockies."
