Design: Three-season backpacker
Sleeps: 1
Ease of Setup: Very simple with some practice
Weight: 4 lbs.

I spent the weekend with this tent with my 5 yr. old daughter. The tent was extremely easy to set up after a test in the back yard the day before. The tent is everything I need. It packs small, is light, and seems strong. The tent fly was taught throughout the night, and would have surely done well in even the most challenging wind.

My only concern with this tent is that it is small. Just like every other two person tent, this is a one person and gear kind of situation. My daughter and I fit well in the tent, but there was little room for our bags. We did end up putting them in the vestibule.

I had falsely assumed, with a two person tent, that I could fit my daughter and gear inside. I will be using this tent almost solely for backpacking, and will not have to put someone else in the tent. Therefore, this is a very small problem.

All in all, so many positives it is hard to get upset about the size issue.
