I bought this tent with priorities being 1) Waterproof and 2) Ease and quickness of setup. After using this tent I am extremely happy with it as it has satisfied both of these. The 3 pole design is intuitive allowing for quick and easy setup and take down, while the near complete coverage of the rain fly prevents any rain from getting in even in strong storms.

I would suggest getting the footprint as it is cut perfectly for the tent and provides a confident barrier.

The tent is labeled as having a 2 person capacity which with little to no gear it MAY be able to do but me (6'1" 185 LBS) with a mummy bag, sleeping mat, and gear, fit comfortably.

I have used this tent only in base-camping but I will be using it in backpacking trips in the near future.
