User Review: Eureka! Solitaire

Rating: rated 4 of 5 stars
Source: bought it new
Price Paid: 75$

Summary

Decent little tent for the money. Plenty of room inside for you and a sleeping bag. Rain fly is nice, although heavy rain may find it's way in. Floor material is a bit on the thin side, but still sturdy.

Pros

  • Lightweight
  • Quick assembly
  • Inexpensive

Cons

  • Rain fly could leak in heavy storms
  • Fiberglass poles
  • Bottom is a bit thin

It's an easy enough tent to set up, just 2 poles, clip in and done. The rain fly can be rolled up, exposing just a screen net between you and the stars, both above the entrance and the body of the tent. Staked out, it won't budge an inch in wind.

The zippers are decent quality and are smooth. The floor is thin material, I could see a sharp rock piercing through if you're not careful, but between that and the poles not being aluminum, it really is a nice one-person tent so long as you don't try to use it in the snow.
