From Campmor:
"The North Face Big Fat Frog 24 tent sleeps 2 and has a very large poled vestibule to stow a lot of excess or wet gear. This variation of a classic backpacking tent design also features roof and walls that are 100% no-see-um mesh so breeezes get in but bugs don't. The full coverage fly fully envelops the tent and vestibule to give the ultimate in weather protection. Sturdy shockcorded DAC PressFit poles are the backbone of this classic design and they are easy to use with the revolutionary ultralight clip set up system. Set up is even easier with the simple to understand color coded set up system. The Big Fat Frog offers room to sleep, room for storage, great weather protection and great ventilation. How good is that? Sleeps 2 Main fly and floor seams are factory taped to keep you dry, dry, dry Huge poled storage vestibule with a built in storage shelf - over 14 sq. ft.

From Backcountry.com:
"You'd rather not share your sleeping space with your muddy boots, stove, and backpack (not to mention your buddy's gear). The North Face Big Fat Frog 24 Bx Tent has a large vestibule with a shelf that houses gear while you snooze. A full mesh canopy means there's plenty of ventilation during the night and the color-coded pitch system makes for fast set-up at base camp. Fly tension keeps the canopy taut in windy, rainy weather and overhead pockets store headlamps and glasses."

"It's big, it's fat, and The North Face Big Fat Frog 24 Three Season Tent looks like a frog. This oversized version of our infamous Tadpole 23 features a cavernous poled front vestibule that reaches 42.5" tall. Space for two adult campers, and some storage, this lightweight tent includes color-coded poles, a fully taped bathtub floor and a large, full zip door on the front for easy access.

"I have used my new Big Fat Frog several times now since purchase. I camp at least once a month and replaced my tent of 10 years with the Big Fat Frog.

Pros: The tent is very easy to put up and has stood up to some pretty terrific rain storms."
