Pros & Cons
Pros
The guy lines are so simple to use/tighten but may not be obvious at first glance. My only (but quite significant) criticism is that it needs two people to * it, and even then its fiddly.
Tent has room for a camping table and chairs in a semi-circle inside. Can easily seat four inside the dome, with lots of room to spare. Bedroom is perfect for 3 person, good for 4 person, can fit 5 person.
Survived all sorts of weather and drunken festival goers falling upon it. Never had a problem with condensation due to its airy and spaciousness. Living area of the tent is breathable and gets cold quick if the weather is not great.
Bottom zips are a little fiddly to get the zip connected but once that's done it zips easily enough. The addition of a zip along the bottom door openings means the rainwater stays outside now. No zip issues, no leaks a great starter tent.
Kept all clothes in the inner still plenty of room for dbl lilo. Additional cloth to separate bedroom is quite good idea in some occasion. My only gripe is that neither of the doors to the living area have mesh.

The poles are extremely sharp at the ends which are fed through very lightweight fabric which caused the outer sheath to tear. The guy ropes only attach half way up the poles and provide little stability for them, resulting in a lot of flexing. There ... Read More
