This tent is amazing.

I've used many a tent, and this one takes the cake. It is a freestanding pseudo-dome with a hubbed-pole design which makes it very strong. High winds glance off the tent, and after sleeping through a few storms in it I've determined it definitely does not leak.

There are five pockets in the tent (three on the ceiling, and two HUGE pockets at the ends) to hold needed items like glasses, or maybe a few pairs of wet socks.

The vestibules on this tent are one of its shining features. It is probably one of the few two man tents that can truly hold two men, comfortably. ALL of your gear can fit in the two vestibules, and if you aren't camping on a hill, none of that gear will get wet.

Something about getting into a tent from the side, rather than the front, is priceless. No need to crawl all over your sleeping bag and other stuff, you can sit inside the tent, zip up the rain-fly, leave your muddy boots in the vestibule, and climb into bed with no hassle at all. (not to mention there are two doors so midnight bathroom runs wont disturb your buddy)

If you can find this tent, get it. You'll love it. It is a very nice tent, I hope to use it for many years to come.
