From Backcountry.com:
"The North Face Moraine 33 3-Person 3-Season Tent's great ventilation and roomy construction help you stay on your buddies' good side. Keep Dutch-ovens limited to your sleeping bag and let your companions sleep in peace. This three-person, three-season tent's excellent ventilation ensures any noxious fumes escaping from your bag will quickly diffuse into the night air. The Moraine's two doors keep you separated when nerves are on end. The opposite vestibules prevent your stinky boots from infringing upon your friend's freeze-dried-pasta-surprise. The Moraine 33's simple color-coded fly and canopy design make set-up a breeze, meaning no more temper tantrums at the end of a long hike. When you finally do get cozy, the roomy interior minimizes rogue elbows and wandering feet, while the internal pockets and hanging loops ensure your necessities stay on your side."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Ideal for summer camping and family trips to warm open spaces, The North Face Moraine 33 Bx Tent beats the heat with exceptional venting with plenty of room for up to three adults. Clipped poles with large mesh panels on all four sides to enhance cross ventilation, even if you have the fly over the canopy. Keep this in mind because some campers might consider the design a little too breezy on cold nights, although an extra unzipped sleeping bag draped as a comforter is usually a solution. The Moraine 33 Bx Tent can also be pitched with the fly only, creating an ultralight shelter--just be sure to pick up a Moraine 33 Bx footprint for the floor (sold separately)."

"This tent is a worthless piece of crap! I spent over 200 dollars for garbage. The first weekend my sister and I went out camping it rained. We felt like someone was pissing on us all night long.

I am very disappointed with the quality that went into the tent. Do not buy this garbage. I hate North Face product and despise the company and its employees."

"Very good tent for the price. Alum poles, full sleeves (no clips), full fly, dual entrances, and a decent size vestibule. Kept us and gear dry during sporadic rainstorms on North Manitou in Lake Michigan. A bit heavy, but compensated in sturdiness and weather worthiness."

"My good buddy has a North Face Peregrine that he has used for the past 5 to seven years. I love that tent but they don't make it anymore. I got to choose a gift from a contest I won and they had the Moraine 33. I could not be happier. The tent is great for my trips to the Boundary Waters North Woods."

"I am not sure what the other reviewers were talking about, but I love this tent. It's roomy, sturdy, and dry. I have been through multiple rainstorms, and always stayed dry. Sure a little water trickles in when you open the door, but you would get that with any tent."

"This tent looks nice when you set it up. It's a piece of junk though. Unless you want a $300 water filter don't buy the Moraine 33. I went camping and I was drenched the first rain. Water came through every part of the tent. I've never seen anything like it in my life. DO NOT BUY!"
