"Best tent I've ever had. Not too heavy, easy to set up, roomy. Well engineered inside.

I live in Hilo, Hawaii, where it rains a ton. The first night, camping in heavy rain I was nervous about having to spend the next day drying out everything."

"I just got back from a 10-day trip in the Ozark Mtns, and it got very cold at night. My Jet froze very heavy and leaked a lot. Do I need to treat my tent with something?"

"Used it three weekends (one this winter 2006 in the White Mountains). Easy to set up, wind resistant (in very windy conditions). Not suitable for winter, because there's too much ventilation.

I wonder why they used two different kinds of door zipping system. Condensation is fair for a single wall."

"This has to be the best design for a single wall tent ever! I have been looking for one for a while, but haven't had a good feeling about any in my price range until this baby came out. Two doors, one side fully mesh (vestibule side) the other has a roll back panel for over the V-shaped mesh door, about 3-4" full perimeter mesh along the bottom, roomy vestibule with (useless) window, plenty of pockets inside, awesome head room and incredible floor space for a two-man."
