Love It...but......

I backpack. This was a dream to carry, virtually invisible to carry. Second night out ,zipper malfunction. Fortunately I was able to pinch it tight and get it zipped. Climbed over each other the rest of the trip. Condensation was awful. 30 degree nights and 2 people equaled drips on face and damp down bags. The velcro was not ideal but held in 30mph winds. The fabric feels very delicate. Overall , as a long term and dedicated msr purchaser, I am not thrilled. This said, a few more trips, a zipper repair, and I may upgrade my opinion. This tent is for a dedicated ultralight packer who is polite and respectful with their gear. If you are not, go with a hubba. My old one is at least 10 yts old and going strong. I will still purchase msr as they stand by their gear and are always easy to deal with.

Une Belle Dã:copyright:ception

La qualitÃ:copyright: est au rendez-vous, bien fabriquÃ:copyright:e et sans dÃ:copyright:faut. Très lÃ:copyright:gère, et facile à monter. Mais : - La fermeture des auvants pas deux morceaux de Scratch laisse la pluie entrer et mouiller les affaires, - La toile intÃ:copyright:rieure est très basse de chaque côtÃ:copyright:, elle reste sur votre visage toute la nuit, sauf à dormir sur le côtÃ:copyright: vers le centre delà tente, - A deux, la condensation goutte au petit matin, ou à chaque bourrasque de vent, mouillant les duvets. Je suis donc dÃ:copyright:çu demon achat, que je vais sûrement revendre pour acheter un autre modèle (chez MSR ?)

Faulty Design

The top short cross carbon fiber pole breaks systematically at crossing point. The breakage occurs after a few hours of having the tent set up, even with no wind or rain. I've contacted MSR for help after the first failure. They sent me an extra set of poles. Since then I had to replace one section every other time I mounted the tent. I have to bring extra sections when I plan to use the tent for more than one night. Fixes with aluminim hollow tube over the breaking point just results in another breaking occurring just out of the tube. I have now run out of extra sections. This is just an unreliable and costly piece of equipment.

Nice Weight, So-so Rainfly

My wife and I used this tent on a weekend in Arkansas and a 7 night trip in Grand Canyon NP. We zip our sleeping bags together and with that bit of space saving found the room adequate. I'm 5'11'' and when I sit up my head brushes the top. The biggest weakness of this tent is the rainfly. The vestibules are each closed with two metal hooks and a few pieces of velcro. I have not been able to figure out a way to close them without leaving large gaps through which wind and rain could pour in. I'm not saying it can't be closed securely but so far I haven't been able to do it. It takes careful positioning of the rainfly pegs to keep the fly from resting on the tent body. With this weakness I would not take this tent above treeline. I don't find the non-freestanding design to be a problem. Freestanding tents must be staked down or they'll go off on a trip without you.
