Likes: Insanely Easy to set up! Litterally set it up (not including the rain fly) in less than 5 minutes.
Dislikes: The tent stakes are pretty bad. I had read about this on other reviews, but with the first strike, they had bent a good 30 degrees. Also, a smaller stuff sack would be great.

Likes: Very easy setup. I am new to camping, but was able to set up the tent in under 15 minutes the first time. Take down and pack up was even faster...under 5 minutes. The tent is well constructed and durable.
Dislikes: So far so good, no complaints

Likes: This tent is light weight and packs down small enough to fit in my bicycle trunk bag; that was one of the main reasons that I selected it. I didn't go with a one-person tent because I want to keep my bike panniers inside the tent with me at night - this tent is just the right size for that. I've only used it once so far, but it was easy to put up and it looks to be of good quality as well.
Dislikes: This tent has a little bit of a taper in width (it is not a perfect rectangle) and may be a little tight for two people, unless you are a couple with no gear to store inside; but it is perfect for one person plus gear.

Likes: Overall I think this tent was a great value for the price. I was wanting something big enough for car camping but light enough for backpacking and this tent fit the bill. I was easily able to set it up by myself and considering I am 6'3" the inside was very roomy for me and my pack.
Dislikes: So far I have found nothing wrong with the one time I used it by myself, however 2 people would be a little snug and the vestibule is a little small but you could make it work. Also I would suggest getting some better stakes, as the metal ones that come with it are a little cheap and I bent a couple of them driving them into soft ground.

Likes: Easy to setup and take down. compressed down for my pack really well.
Dislikes: for a 3-season tent, the mesh is concerning for colder nights since the tent does not have zip up covers for the mesh that goes completely around the tent.

Likes: Great product for the cost... This tent is well constructed & compares with brand names that are much more costly. The overall weight allows for some use while backpacking. As a scout leader this tent keeps that passion affordable.
Dislikes: No problems found.

Likes: This tent is super light and wicked easy to assemble. I'm usually horrible at setting up tents, by myself no less, but this one is pretty much fool-proof. The inside zippers are also a nice touch. It's compact and nothing too fancy for two hikers' needs.
Dislikes: The inside floor is a little slippery. If you happen to set up camp on even a slight incline, you and your companion will slide into one another.

Likes: This tent held up in massive downpours and incredible gusts over the course of a week without any water leaking or seeping through. I used it as a one-person tent and kept my gear inside with me. The vestibule is slightly small, which didn't bother me at all, but it may be harder to manage if 2 people are using the tent. The tent window is a nice touch but it's kind of useless - to keep out water during rain/wind, is has to be mostly covered by its mini awning, which makes is more of a hole you can peek through than an actual window. This didn't bother me, though. I was so happy it held up to the rain and wind. The inside has three pockets and loops for a gear loft.
Dislikes: I was comfortable in the tent and glad it did what it was supposed to - give shleter during a rainstorm. So there's nothing I don't like about it.

Likes: Great little tent! It's so easy to set up. Took me less than 5 minutes my first time without instructions! I haven't taken it out camping yet but I'm very confident that this will work great in the field.
Dislikes: I like to sleep with my feet towards the door so I'd like it if the built in pockets were on the opposite side of the door, but that's not a big deal.

Likes: I used this tent on an eight-day hike through in Alaska; it kept my buddy and me dry and comfy. This tent is very easy to set up with only two poles and the clip system works well even in the dark! The rain fly vestibule has just enough room for two packs and your boots. Under five pounds and less than a hundred bucks, you just can’t go wrong this tent.
Dislikes: This tent is spacious for one person and a little tight for two.

Likes: Set this up the other night when I got it. Seems to be the right size for two people but make sure you know them well as it will be kind of a tight fit. I would say this tent would be better for one person and a dog(my situation). Its not the lightest tent out there but for the price and quality its hard to beat.
Dislikes: Would have liked to see another door and a little more vestibule area.
