From Moosejaw:

From Backcountry.com:
"The lightweight North Face Dyad 22 two-person, three-season Tent protects you from the elements when every ounce counts. Although this two-person tent weighs in at a mere 33oz, the weatherproof, single-walled Dyad stays stable and durable. This Flight Series ultralight tent uses a fully seam-sealed canopy and taped floor to ensure you stay dry during any spring or summer storm. The Dyad's top and bottom vents create more air circulation. This means you can go to sleep and wake up to fresh air. Push the Dyad 22 Tent's color-coded poles through the continuous pole sleeves and clip them in to pitch this tent, and climb inside for a peaceful nights sleep."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Built with the same highly wind resistant profile found in the one-person Solo 12, The North Face Dyad 22 Tent is the ideal ultralight design for two. Besides being wider than the Solo 12, the Dyad 22 Tent also offers a little more internal length, so occupants can keep a little more extra gear zipped inside the tent. With 37 inches of headroom, the Dyad is an excellent fastpacking design, especially if you find yourself tangled up in cramped bivy bags and other ultralight tents. Overhead vents and perimeter vents combine to optimize the high-low air flow, although you can cut any excess breeze with the integrated zippers. This is accomplished with The North Face's new Nano-Knuckle Swivel, a durable plastic swivel that's positioned on the top cross pole to improve venting at the top without leaving you exposed to the elements. The durable nylon canopy is fully seam sealed for optimal weather protection, and The North Face tested the slightly smaller Solo 12 in wind tunnel gusts clocked up to 95 mph. Your performance with the Dyad 22 might vary. After all, we're talking about a little more area and a bit more height, but if you're looking for a lightweight, two-person design that can weather daunting backcountry storms, this is an excellent candidate for the job."

"I agree with Robert Kelly's review. This tent is quite possibly the worst piece of backpacking equipment I have ever owned.

I don't know what happened in the factory, maybe some sort of joke by the workers in China, but this tent is a disgrace to The North Face."

"I bought the Dyad 22 after a lot of research, concentrating on a tent that would be lightweight, rainproof, but with good ventilation as I live in a humid country (Taiwan).

I just tested the Dyad 22 on a 5 day trek in the south under ideal conditions: warm (25 degrees during the day, 15 at night) and mostly dry."

"We slept two people and gear in this two-person tent on several cool and rainy early spring evenings in north Georgia. The tent was warm enough that we started on top of the sleeping bags but before dawn were zipped in. Not the Hilton of sleeping gear, but certainly adequate for our section hike of the AT."

"The North Face Dyad 22 is a non-freestanding single wall ultralight tent and is one of the many items in the Flight Series. Although The North Face states that this is a 2-person tent, it, in my opinion, is the perfect 1-person tent because there is simply no room for that second person."
