Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"When it comes to adapting to changes in environment and terrain, the Sierra Designs Convert 2 Tent is practically a chameleon. The waterproof Drizone fabric seals out the elements when you set up camp in a drizzly forest or a snow-laden forest clearing, and in a puke-fest, you can finish setting up the tent from inside. Drizone is also highly breathable, so you won't suffocate when you take the Convert 2 Tent on desert campouts. The Air Flow Vent system increases ventilation with its angled design and mesh backing. This two-person tent's vestibule creates room for your muddy gear, but if you're on a fast and light mission, remove the vestibule, drop a pound, and save some space."

"Unable to find any reviews or stores that stock this tent I finally decided to bite the bullet and purchase this tent on pro form. After setting it up and analyzing many of the features I am very happy with this product from Sierra Designs. The DriZone material used in the single wall construction seems to be very durable and waterproof."
