Zoid 1.5
Reviewed by Rick Pickering, Feb 10, 2007
"I've soloed in this tent for three years. In heavy rain & winds it's held up very well. I modified the "sleeved rainfly attachments" by sewing in "velcro loops" where the fly sleeves attach. This gives me a much faster pitch in bad weather. Every time I try a "freestanding" tent, I go back to my Zoid 1."

"Sure, this tent is pretty lightweight, easy to set up and roomy as a single tent. BUT what does MSR mean, Manhattan Safety Research? I can't see how the designers of this tent ever set foot outside in rain, cold and wind.
Bought the tent to go for a 6-week hike across the Hardangervidda Plateau in Norway, and the price, weight and small pack size appealed to me."

"Used this tent for a solo nine-day sheep hunt. Sets up easily and quickly. It's a great solo tent for us bigger guys and I really like the extra room under the rainfly for your gear. No problems in wind and rain."

"On first outing in Snowdonia, Wales, it coped well in persistent rain, with no leaks. Also proved fairly stable in sudden wind gusts even without additional guying of the tent. You do need to watch that the fly is tautly stretched over the inner tent though, as there is not much space between the two on the roof of the tent."

Zoid 1.5
Reviewed by Rich M, Sep 19, 2003
"I use this tent as a solo and it works very well for that purpose. Mine weighs 4 pounds even as a carry weight. Lots of room inside and I stay very dry with no leaks in heavy rain. It has a little less headroom when sitting up but I am willing to sacrifice that for the amount of room inside. No problems with this tent so far."

Zoid 1.5 (2003)
Reviewed by Bladerunner, Feb 13, 2003
"Ordered this as a solo option, but it will squeeze 2 with two 3/4 thermarests. Two full length doors and vestibules provide ample room for all gear, and mulitple configurations of the fly. Performed flawlessly in the rain and light wind. 27+ sq ft is more than enough room as a soloer!!"
