This tent has a lot of room for two people. Can fit some gear inside, which is good, because the two vestibules are kind of small (just barely big enough for a pack). The windows aren't much of a feature because of the angle they're at, but they are kind of neat. Seams look to be sealed well, although I haven't had it out in rain yet. I took it winter camping a few times in moderate winds. Had to guy it down, but the tent held up fairly well. Setting up the tent is a little tough because the poles are tight to get into the loops after they are through the sleeves. Overall, I'm impressed and happy with the tent and would recommend it to others.
