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.
