Amazing tent. Simple in design and execution. Dual door/vestibule is huge plus. Door walls are beyond verticle creating amazing shoulder elbow room making this a very user friendly tent as you try and change clothes with a tent mate. I really love this tent!!!

Super light tent, easy to pitch. Lots of mesh.

Catenary cut floor keeps seams off the ground, but I'd prefer to see a bathtub bottom.

Lightest free-standing 2-person tent on the market. Easy to set up, very roomy.

The door zipper is not continuously looped - so it can only bi zipped one way, with two zippers on top of the door.
When traveling drier climates of southwest, the fabric weirdly shrank, so it was hard to zip up the door. The problem was gone back in the North East

MSR Hubba Hubba, but too much mesh?
