I searched and found one thread. Looking for more info.

Has anyone owned one of these? Likes? Dislikes?

I have used one and really liked it. It is essentially a modified Mid design with a centre pole instead of a trekking pole. Because of that, it has much more headroom everywhere than say, a DuoMid. It is also functionally larger but of course, with these types of designs there is some unusable space.

It really deserves much more love than it gets.

Here are some reviews:

I have a brand new one, color green, that I will sell for $120. Never used in the field, only setup a couple of times. Send me a PM if you are interested.

I generally like a lot of room in my shelters and I'd say this is a great shelter for 1 person. 2 can fit but I found it a little cramped for my liking which is why I'm selling. Of course I'd say the same thing about the Duomid if that gives an idea on how much space I like. If you do not use Trekking poles this could be a good choice. Fairly easy to setup and I think it would do well in stormy weather.

Erik,

Sell it to William. I am getting a new one by trading a guy a cam. Hahaha.
