User Review: Sierra Designs Electron

Sierra Designs Electron
Above: The current Electron, which may differ slightly from the version reviewed.

Rating: rated 4 of 5 stars

Camped for a week in the mountains of Alabama in February in this tent. It performs excellently. Easy to set up, great vestibule and gear loft room, and stayed bone dry during an all-night downpour.

Be wary of:
-the all-mesh walls! this tent was dry but cold in freezing conditions. definitely a summer-friendly tent.
-a fly that's a little too clever. the corner clips would be nice, but they don't stay tight so aren't very useful. the fly itself requires some delicate staking to work its best.
