Thanks to the reviews on this site, I purchased my Hyperlight 3 with the intention of using it as a 2 person tent. The tent is comparable in weight to many 2 person tents and I figured the extra space would come in handy.

The tent is very easy to set up and the two entrances (which are spaced about 1m apart) make it very easy to enter/exit without disturbing the other person. Footspace is at a premium since 2 full length Thermarests will overlap at the bottom but due to the angle of the tent, headspace is at a premium.

I've used this tent in the summer and in the winter when it was around 5 below C. The tent performed very well in both cases... even without the Jake's corner.

If this was a review for a 2 person tent, I'd rate it a 5. Unfortunately, I just can't imagine 3 people being crammed into this tent unless they were all under 5' tall. Think of this tent as a 2 person and you'll be pleased.
