From REI:
"The new Baku 2 tent is an innovative hybrid of single- and double-wall construction to save weight, and features super fast set-up and quiet living. Lots of sleeping space for two, with twin doors and two roomy vestibules, all for around 4 pounds. Sierra Designs uses 40-denier siliconized nylon in single-wall areas and mesh in double-wall areas, taking ultralight to the next level. Tent body and half-fly are one piece, simplifying pitching; tent is also very quiet, even in a windstorm. DAC Featherlite NSL poles are the latest iteration from DAC and have an even greater strength-to-weight ratio than their other Featherlite poles. Swift Clips provide fast setup; Clip-Locs at tent pole intersections increase tent strength up to 60% without adding weight or bulk. Stash Doors can be opened from the side or bottom and stashed out of the way in internal pockets. Air-flow vent system lets air circulate through tent when needed yet won't allow rain or snow to get in; can be adjusted from inside the tent. SuperSeal Floor combines the benefits of catenary and bathtub floors; raised side seams are taped for complete waterproofness. Reflective guyout loops allow night visibility; reflective noiseless zipper pulls are easy to see and eliminate that annoying jingle when it's windy. Treated with Tent Guard with Ultra-Fresh to help prevent the growth of odor-causing fungus and mildew to extend tent's life; a SD exclusive! A multitude of gear pockets keep gear organized and up off the floor. Includes stuff sacks, guyline and stakes. Average minimum weight specification is based on tent, rainfly and poles only."

From Backcountry.com:
"The Sierra Designs Baku 2-Person 3-Season Tent combines single- and double-wall designs to make it light, very breathable, and fast to set up. It's ideal for lightweight backpacking and through-hiking where weight is an issue, but you still need a solid shelter. With two mesh walls, the Baku 2 has drastically increased breathability and reduced condensation compared to traditional single-wall tents. Vestibules on each side give you a place to stash your gear out of the rain, and they keep moisture out of the tent when you're going in or out. Two doors provide easy access to either side of the Baku 2, and it sets up in seconds thanks to Swift Clip pole attachments. With the Baku 2, you cut your pack weight and remain protected when the weather turns nasty."
