Great value in 4-season tent (especially at sale price!). Mine is a '96 model that I bought at close at price. I noted a recent negative review and thought I would add a conflicting opinion. This tent now has about 15 nights of mid-winter Colorado camping with nary a problem (plus lots of milder nights). It has held up in heavy snow and very heavy winds. The clips are great in the winter because you can put the tent up without removing your gloves. Only drawback is the single door on my older model. A larger vestibule would help in the winter too. I understand newer designs have corrected the former.
