From Altrec Outdoors:
"The 2005 Outside magazine 'Gear of the Year' award winner, the Sierra Designs Reverse Combi Tent offers extreme weight efficiency in an optimal space design. The high strength-to-weight ratio DAC pole, which is thicker at the dome and thinner as well as pre-bent down the sidewall, allows for near 50% greater living space. This unique design increases strength and saves weight. A dual door entry provides easy access to the multi-pitching, double-track zippered vestibule for convenience and increased ventilation. For quick set-up and 60% greater strength, color-coded webbing guides the pole placement, Swift Clip pole hooks allow for faster pre-stakeout, and Clip-Locs dynamically maintain pole intersections. One of the most tricked-out, two-person tents on the market, the Reverse Combi includes a Fast Pack Footprint, Portable Attic, and Coffee Sling."

"I write this review after having spent approximately 80 nights in this tent:

I was very careful when I chose this tent. I considered several other similar tents, including Sierra Designs' Electron and The North Face's Road Runner 22. In the end I chose the Reverse Combi because (a) I was very happy with the other SD tent I own, the Bedouin 4, (b) it seemed more durable than the Electron, (c) it had a huge vestibule for a tent in its class, and (d) it won several 'gear-of-the-year' type awards from magazine testers."

"I wanted a two-person, two door, two pole, two vestibule tent -- this seemed like the one because it is light, compact, and very quick set up. I've used this for kayaking and hiking trips. Great in dry weather -- we made an awning by staking the fly out with hiking poles, which allowed for air flow while preventing dew on everything."

"Awesome one-person tent, two can be a bit tight depending on your size. Overall the tent is great. I took it out to Colorado (flat tops wilderness area) for a week and then to Utah (Moab) for a week. Encountered all elements and temperature ranges with it and it stood the test."
