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!!!

Rating: Three out of five. Four stars for the product, two for my own poor experience with Sierra Designs' customer service getting a defective pole replaced. Davis, I'm sorry to say you are an illiterate lackey who has neither a working knowledge of English grammar nor spelling. You seem quick to scold by name others who do not share your profound ignorance of products you do not even own; rather, you would prefer to be a corporate lapdog who obsequiously licks the boots of his master, hoping for a gristly bone of approval. The King Rabies will not abide a display of such shameless tomfoolery, even when it is capable of fitting within the offending party's "my down jackets stuff sack", our having no doubt such bag is a dark well containing a bottomless supply of feeble calumny. As anyone who has dealt with Sierra Designs unfortunately knows, while their products may possess considerable merit, their customer service is at best lacking. Please refrain from your quixotic mission of insult, and abandon your efforts to be taken seriously, for others on this forum may not wish to see the dance of an idiot play out tediously before them.

This tent is exactly what I expected. Made of high quality material and very lightweight the creators thought of everything. The pole structure is unique and interesting but once you've set it up once it's a breeze in the future. This tent is way more roomy than you would imagine, especially for the weight! The only minor thing I have with this tent is that it let in a bit of condensation, but it didn't drip on us. Overall a great roomy tent that for the price can't be beat. Way more room and cheaper than most tents in this weight category.

Laura im sorry to say it but they didnt miss represent the tent. I have been using there gear for 35 years and have never once had a problem. As any one who backpacks no's there telling u how small the tent will pack down. For instants i have the serius 2 sierra design tent and can fits in my down jackets stuff sack. I have allways been a fan of there gear. Cant stand to see someone that dont have a clue bash companies. Ur tents are awesome especially this one.

I bought this tent based on the advertised weight and packed size, so when I received the tent and found that the packed size was grossly misrepresented, I promptly returned it. Why advertise a specific packed size and then not provide the correct stuff sack for the packed size?! First, I had to contact the company twice in order to receive a Return Authorization number. When I finally received it after more than a week, I shipped it back via FedEx and still hadn't received my refund for over a month. I call to see what was going on and was given the run around by a representative who told me they would call be back about the refund. When I hadn't heard anything for another 2 weeks, I contacted the company again and after long hold times and having to defend my decision to return it, they finally said they would return my money. I was very disappointed not only in the product, but also in the company itself and the way they conducted my return. I seriously question whether or not I would have received my refund (I still haven't, by the way) if I hadn't contacted the company numerous times to look into the matter. I will not be purchasing anything from this company again.
