I have had my Hilleberg Akto for about 2 years now, and it never stops impressing me! I like going by myself and I do not like carrying a heavy tent. At first I was a little reluctant to get a one person tent, but after seeing the Akto, with its 3.1 lbs, big vestibule and good sized inner tent, I decided to try it. I am glad I did! I am 6'1 and 230 pounds and I have plenty of space with all my gear and plenty of room to cook. The vestibule has great room and all the materials and workmanship are excellent. My last trip brought on a big storm, but my little Akto had no problems in the harsh winds. Despite the storm it only took me about a minute to pitch the tent, since the fly sheet and inner tent are attached, which makes it very simple to set up and keeps the inner tent dry and away from the rain. It is the best one person tent I have ever seen!
