From Altrec Outdoors:
"The Vario 33 is an ultralight, freestanding three-person tent using lift technology."

From The North Face:
"For multisport enthusiasts who strive to venture far and fast, the Vario 33 offers comfortable lodging for three in an ultra lightweight package. At just about five pounds, this tent s rectangular shape adapts extremely well to varied terrain so athletes can set-up camp in a moment s notice."

From Backcountry.com:
"The North Face designed the Vario 33 Tent to go fast. Ultralight MicroClip pole attachments and DAC Featherlite NSL aluminum poles help a loaded pack move, passing other tents on the trail left and right. Fully taped seams in the floor and canopy keep rain far away from you as you sleep, and high-low venting through mesh panels in the roof and door allow airflow and deter condensation build-up. The freestanding 3-pole design makes set-up and take-down lightning quick, and a compression stuff sack condenses the tent so that it takes up minimal space in your pack."

"TNF says 3 person, but this is REALLY a 2 person tent with room for gear. At 5 pounds (measured weight) it's still light and surprisingly sturdy in the wind (if you guy it out properly). The cross-pole at the top forms 'eaves' so you can leave the tops of both doors open even in pouring rain - VERY COOL feature."
