I agree with a previous review of this great tent. REI has done a great job of making an inexpensive tent that really holds up under heavy use. It sheds rain (and snow) very well. Although I would not use it for winter use.

My girlfriend and I used it backpacking last June at the Grand Canyon. I wanted to take along a well vented tent because we expected sweltering temps and I did not expect to use the rainfly. Much to our surprise it snowed two of the three nights we were there. The tent did not leak a drop.

It has decent sit up room for changing clothes and for playing cards in the foul weather. I will certainly buy another when this wears out.
