REI Arete ASL 2 thoughts?

Hello,

I recently started the thread asking about floorless shelter technique, as the Golite pyramid shelters on sale at REI offered an affordable entry into winter camping for me.
After that helpful discussion, I decided to look at more traditional 4 season tents for comparison, and have only really come up with one option that I'd consider affordable; the REI Arete ASL 2.
So I'm back, looking for more advice, impatiently waiting for snow.

Thanks
