Here's what other sites are saying:

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:
"The Moraine 33 is a spacious three-person tent with excellent ventilation."

"I bought this tent last winter in anticipation of a 5 day bike ride in June. I was concerned about the negative feedback regarding water leakage. The sales person who is an experienced camper explained how to properly pitch a tent to avoid "wicking and leakage."

"I find it surprising the few negative comments I've read on here about this product. I think, dare I say it, the negative feedback is coming from individuals who were unable to understand the concept of a rain fly, and problem thought they were finished setting up the tent once the poles and dome was erected."

"I have used the Moraine 33 for a while now, and have experienced some difficult conditions to put it to the test. With cold temps and steady rain, no leaks whatsoever; but it is a well-ventilated tent, so duh. . . expect the outside temps to translate inside the tent."

"Frank, you need to learn how to set up a tent. I have used this tent 20+ times in all kinds of weather in damp Ky. conditions and it performs flawlessly even in 10 degree weather.

I would like to correct something you see in almost all reviews."

"I've been camping in this little tent for 2 seasons now. I have an older version that has two sleeves as opposed to all clips for the poles to feed through, but the design is identical otherwise. I would say that it makes a cozy two-person tent. It would be pretty tight with three people."

"I have no idea what the negative feedback on this tent is all about, cause i just bought this tent and set it up in my basement and it was the easiest tent I have ever assembled. Took me 5-6 minutes to simply click the poles into place and hook into the bottom."

"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!"
