I used this produce on a week long bike trip across Iowa. Overall, the tent stood up to incredible demands. On two separate occasions the tend stood up to sustained 30 mph winds with gusts exceeding 50 mph. Inside of the tent, I had no idea that the wind had even gotten that bad. I watched out of the portal as my neighbor's tent blew over, and decided it was time to seek shelter. When I returned the tent was still standing tall.

There was ample room for two people. The vestibules allow for great storage of non-essential gear. On the clear nights, I was able to soak up the beautiful sky through the large mesh top with the rainfly off.
Very quick setup and take down.

The only problem I have with the tent is that I did encounter a lot of condensation on the trip, which could be a pain at times, but I didn't let that 'dampen' my spirits (pun intentional).

Overall I am still very pleased with this product, and I won't hesitate to buy another Marmot product in the future.
