Materials feel good, we didn’t have any issues with condensation great venting.


Appears to be well made seams all look good.


Breaking camp after 2 days my heavy blanket used for a pad was half soaked from condensation.


Footprint, the utilities canapé that hangs from the ceiling and a complete set of stakes and cables to secure the base of the r...  Read More

Price


Great price and weight for a 2 person tent.


Over all great tent for the buck.


This is a good tent for the price.


But the price point is reflective of that with this size.

Shipping


Awesome customer service & ~10 years later i’m still impressed.


Took this on a 3 day backpacking trip to red river gorge, ky.

Packaging/appearance


Much easier to pack than my other tents with 18-24" pole segments.


I do wish it came in a different carry bag but those are easy enough to find, so no problem.


At first i was thrown off by the square-ish packing dimensions, but that's just how kelty ships it with the rainfly and tent side-by-side.


I usually pack it in my backpack without the sack it comes in.

Competitiveness


No big deal; i replaced them with msr ultralight stakes anyway.


This tent compares very favorably for an affordable, lightweight, and small-packing tent.


The tent is longer than most tents at this price point, which allows you about a foot of space above or below where you sleep.
