Here's what other sites are saying:

From Altrec Outdoors:
"The Radiant 3 is a well-ventilated, freestanding, three-pole mountaineering tent that is designed to open up internal space for comfort, a welcome feature when waiting out the elements."

From REI:
"REI Members: Save 20% on One Full-Priced Item. Ends 3/30/08 Code: MEMDEAL This four-season tent is strong, versatile and works well for all weather conditions. Two doors and two large vestibules provide easy entry and exit with ample storage for your gear. Freestanding design allows easy setup, while the DAC Pressfit poles feature a pressed-in ferrule, ensuring poles remain strong and reliable. Vaulted pole sleeves increase airflow between tent and rainfly to prevent condensation. ArcEdge floor remains taut with specially constructed waterproof seams that are up off the ground. UV-resistant polyester rainfly doesn't stretch or expand when wet, ensuring a consistently taut pitch. FlyBoy technology anchors the body, rainfly and poles together into a single, unified, self-reinforcing structure. Webforce stabilizes the tent further and eases setup; trusses guide poles through intersections, and tendons lock stakeout points to FlyBoy. Closeable mesh panels and rainfly vents provide adjustable airflow to allow good moisture evaporation. Features clear window in front vestibule, guyout points and noiseless zipper pulls. Internal pockets and gear loft loops keep stuff organized inside. Average minimum weight specification is based on tent, rainfly and poles only."

"Tent is outclassed by simpler designs; I bought this to replace an ancient REI 4 person dome tent that I had used for years of hunting. Once up, it does provide very usable space and has excellent ventilation as well as good visibility with built in windows."

"On our most recent outing up to Shenandoah we ended up setting up in the dark in quite a hurry trying to beat a severe thunderstorm that was rolling in. The tent went up quickly and handled the onslaught of rain like a champ. We did have a minor concern when we noticed water on the dome between the rain fly."
