this tent is on sale down from 209.99. anyone have any thoughts on this tent? weight listed on site is 3lbs11oz and 4lbs4oz.
I was checking it out pretty heavily during the 20% frenzy… Good headroom, well made, seems pretty great. Floor space is pretty tight but doable for 2 people, nice for one.
I’ve posted it hear before…this tent is my ‘splurge’. Not really ‘UL’ but I still love it. It’s rock solid, little or no condensation issues, weather-tight. It’s held up fine through 6+ inches of snow and 50 mph gusts. Fit & finish are excellent. Two minor quibbles: It is a bit tight for two six-footers (fits me and my wife fine), and the vestibule is rather steep which makes cooking tricky. Overall though, a very well thought out shelter. It was a bargin at $210, so for $140 you can’t beat it, really.
I do hate seeing a piece of gear I own on sale for less than what I paid.
