Light, but for 1 person and some gear.,
I actually bought this from a Walmart Store and not through Amazon.com. It’s marketed at Walmart as a 2-person tent for children. I love this little tent, though. I used it for backpacking out west in the desert and on the east coast. The tent comes in a little zippered bag with handles. It is VERY light!
I am a 5’3″ woman and my head and feet are right up against the side walls, when laying flat length-wise, due to the angle of the tent walls. This is not good when the walls of the tent collect condensation when it is humid or wet outside. It is good for dry weather and the desert atmosphere. The tent will not keep you warm or dry during a good rain. You can technicaly squeeze two short people in there, but it was just large enough for my sleeping bag and my gear bag. A taller person could lie in it diagonally. May be difficult to fit a camping pad in there that is longer than 6′.
If you’re in ideal conditions, this tent is WONDERFULLY light, simple, portable and easy to use. The zippers don’t stick too much, there are only support beams/sticks to maneuver, and tiny rain cap (can’t even call it a rain flap) is simple to add on. It also came with a mesh assessory “shelf” the size of a hankerchief to stow small items overhead.
Recommended for 1 adults or 2 children, dry weather, backpacking, and biking.
Not recommened for 2 adults, rain/wet/humid conditions.

|Hiking Tent-Two person back pack tent,
I’ve camped & hiked for many years and thought what a great tent for light weather hiking. WOW………The very first day I set it up it fell apart. When I pulled the zipper to open the tent, the entire seem holding the zipper completely unraveled. This has to be the poorest excuse for a tent I’ve ever experianced. I had to click on at least one star or they wouldn’t accept the review.
Dissapointed Doug

|Tent in Picture is NOT the Real Tent,
I just want to point out that the tent in the picture is not the actual product. If you want the actual product, fine. But don’t be misled.
