Likes: Amazing tent! My only other tent is a circa mid-90s Mountain Hardware Glacier 2-man tent. What a huge difference in size! I bought this tent mainly for me and my 6yo cub scout. Like most tents (people rating - 1), I suspect that three people would sleep comfortably. Love that it has two big doors and complete view of the sky at night. Spent the first night in 40 degree southern weather and the fly was soaked with condensation, but the tent was completely dry. Although I didn't use them much, all the storage pockets are appreciated. The net pocket to hold the doors are great so I don't have to roll and clip them or let them hit the wet ground. 15 minutes setup time by myself inc. fly
Dislikes: No complaints at all other than I have no idea how the two of us could ever stay in my 2-man tent on a backpacking trip! Loved being able to throw gear all over the extra floor space. May have to get a 3-man for hiking. The reflective accents are very helpful at night when surrounded by other tents. The color is a little goofy, but I'll take it in the hot south over a dark colored tent for summer camping. Let me also add that Backcountry Edge is amazing. First purchase from them and everything was delivered quickly and safely. Will definitely do business with you guys again!

Likes: So far I have only done a trial setup in the living room. Setup was easy with one person, the completely symmetrical design makes setup foolproof. Quality of construction and materials seems very good. Very roomy interior with plenty of pockets for storage. The tent is probably too heavy for backpacking, but it might work if you split the weight four ways. Will update after I have a chance to test it on a weekend campout.
Dislikes: For the price, I wish it included a footprint like the Marmot Limelight does.

Likes: Lots of room for 2 people and a dog, easy to put up, lots of inside pockets, and held up well in lots of wind (50 mph+), rain, and a grapple downpour. Well-constructed with good materials.
Dislikes: The side-release buckles attaching the fly to the tent get very hard to use in sandy, dusty conditions...had to use a pair of pliers to get them open! The super ventilation is a plus in hot weather, but also let lots of sand and dust into the tent in windy conditions.

Likes: Overall, nice tent, easy to set up and comes with excellent aluminum tent stakes and poles.
Dislikes: Tent floor is thin and even w/ the footprint we also use a tarp to help protect the floor and footprint from abrasion by rocks and roots. Rather pricey at $400, especially considering its made in China.

Likes: Great tent, spacious, love the mesh ceiling, great for star gazing. Ample storage and especially like the pocket door storgae. Fly keeps you dry. Great adjustable ventilation.
Dislikes: I do not like how the pan touches the ground in the cornersor how the sides tended to lift rather than stretch tight.

Likes: Needed a tent for my family of 4 and ended up purchasing this a few months ago. Its been out twice now and its a great piece of equipment. Solid design, solid materials, easy set up, comfortable sleeping space for 4 (though not much room left for gear, but can go in vestibules). I like the quick setup, interior features, and its somewhat low profile. If you need a 4 person tent, can't go wrong with this one.
Dislikes: Orange color is... pretty orange. Would be nice to see some earth tones.

Dislikes: I don't remember any manual/literature being included but support is available through website.
