I had posted earlier on this tent with a promise of an update on how I fared with the Warranty and Repair people at SD, after the main pole snapped in high winds the first time I set it up, and went through the rainfly. I was told there was a two-week turn-around time, after they received the shipment. Well, six weeks later I still had not got my pole and fly back and it took 4-5 days of constant calling to motivate them to ship it back. Everyone I spoke with was apologetic and professional, but that's too long a turnaround. I missed a couple of good trips because this was my only tent. I like the tent generally, and will be using it a lot more now that it's repaired.
