Well Designed And Comfortable.

I purchased the Alto TR1 after having a disastrous experience with the MSR Freelite 1. The Alto provides superior shoulder and headroom, with a well placed door. Its super easy to pitch, and the little triangular space that pops out on the otherwise rectangular floor space makes the tent feel roomier, and provides space for my dog or gear. The vestibule is large and the ventilation, overall, with the fly closed, is pretty good. I bikepacked in below freezing overnight temperatures, and there was a bit of condensation at the foot of the tent, and overhead - even with the peak vents open and the cover unzipped. However, somecondensation is always expected when there is ice on the outside of the fly. 🥶 I highly recommend this tent for anyone looking to lighten their load backpacking or bikepacking. The tubular storage pack strapped down nicely on top of my handlebar dry bag. Well done, S2S!

Love My Alto Tr2!

I bought this tent almost 2 years ago, and am not mad about this purchase. Over the couple years I've owned it, I've used it 10-15 times maybe more not sure. So far it has held up very well. I like how it has three different bags one for tent, fly, and poles. This allows for packing it separate in your pack, or between two packs. You also have the option to connect the pole bag to the fly and tent bag to make it on unit vs three. Also these bags also can serve a purpose inside you tent as gear holders and the pole bag as a lantern which is cool that they have more than one use. However the lantern is a joke as it's hard to snap on and comes off easily, so a good idea just needs some improvement. I found when I first bought my tent that it was hard to pack up as I was folding it up, and then it was extremely difficult to get into the bag, same with the fly. After a few times I started just stuffing in into the bag like a stuff sack, works way better and can have it all packed in minutes. Another thing I love is I was on an overnight backing trip by the coast, and during the night it started to rain and continued till mid morning. I was able to take down my tent and pack it up and fold up my footprint all under the fly. After my pack was pretty much ready to go, still under the fly where it was dry, I then took down my fly and poles packed that and hit the trail! I did get a 2 person mostly to use as a one person and have plenty of room, but have once used it with one of my friends which was pretty tight. So don't highly recommend sleeping two unless you’re comfortable sleeping really close together. There is room for a backpack and some gear under each vestibule so completely doable. All and all I really like this tent it's versatile, practical, and light.

Light But Small

I finally took this tent out on its first trip last weekend. Pros: it is very lightweight and packs down tiny, can be set up quickly (once you practice it, it is not the most intuitive tent I've set up), and reflectors on the rainfly make it easy to see at night. Cons: it is so small - my significant other and I both have regular-width sleeping pads (20") and they take up the entire tent floor. You would not be able to fit anything wider than that. I would only plan on using this as a 1 person tent unless you are very friendly with your tent partner. We could not fit any gear inside the tent which was a big drawback for us. Because the tent is so light, it also feels kind of flimsy. I'm hoping that durability won't be an issue going forward. I'm neutral on the light bar. It's an interesting idea and it does work but I wouldn't say that is a necessity by any means.

Easy Set Up And Absolutely

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy set up and absolutely bug proof. Camping in North Florida for three nights was a breeze. Totally dry in a couple of downpours. Very pleased with the experience.
