User Review: Eureka! Zeus 2EXO

Design: "2"- Season Freestanding
Ease of Setup: Fast and simple
Weight: ~4 lbs
Price Paid: $125

In dry, cool climates, this tent works well. Packs small and light and is very easy to set up.

In colder weather, the condensation is a HUGE problem. In warmer weather, the interior gets stuff. I believe the core issue is a ventilation problem. Even with the side vents (located low on the long sides) staked out, I can't enough air in or out of the tent.

The only way that I've been able to reduce the condensation is to leave the front vestibule pulled open, which exposes the front door (mostly see-thru mesh), which generally vents enough so that only minimal condensation forms at night. This does make for an occasionally breezy night, which is why I feel this tent only works in drier, cooler climates.

Personally, I'd recommend NOT purchasing this tent -- there are simply too many choices out there for a 4 pound tent that would be less frustrating to use.
