From Backcountry.com:
"Marmot designed a unique pole design to steepen the Halo 4-Person Tent's walls and increase usable living space for you and the rest of your family. This spacious tent includes several wall pockets to keep things organized, and the double vestibules provide shelter for anything that doesn't fit inside. Though Marmot designed this tent for family camping, they also included tough DAC press-fit poles, floor-level vents, and other features that you usually only see on expedition shelters."

"Wow what a great tent. I have spent my past camping adventures in some really questionable tents. Finally I decided to buy something "better".

Vertical walls which give this tent tons of room. When you look at tents they say buy a 4 man tent if you have 3 people and gear."

"Excellent tent, keeps you dry, that's for sure. Its been in couple of downpours and nothings ever gotten wet. Nice size, Lots of nice stash pockets.

We use it as a 2 person for car camping but another child or two would fit fine. Great room and suprizingly nice colour! Strong stable design, one person can set up."

"I bought this as a family tent for my wife and I and my young son. It is very roomy with nearly vertical walls. I endured a severe thunderstorm last week and stayed completely dry. I was on a slight hill so I had so run off under the tent but the rain did not seep through."

"I have the first-year's edition which I believe has a slightly different, circumferential "halo" than that pictured here. Overall a nice, seemingly well-designed tent, with one major flaw, at least in my opinion. With the "old(?)" halo design, four huge rain "troughs" are created between the peak of the tent and the halo, as the fly gets wet."
