I am an amateur but use it a lot. The reason I bought it was I owned the 1978 model and it was nearly the same.

One thing I don't like is the vestibule zipper broke the first time I used it, but I still love it and would recommend it to anyone.

It has factory pre-sealed seams, except for two, which I like, lots of vestibule room in both vestibules, and foam spacers to keep fly away from tent to reduce condensation.
