I never thought I could afford a backpacking tent with two doors and two vestibules, under 5 lbs. I love this tent. The only time it ever leaked was in torrential rain, before I sealed the seams, and even then it as only a slow drip. I've owned it for about two years, and have absolutely no complaints

A very nice tent, good fly design, easy to set up, comes with good stakes and guying cords. The only negative I see is that the interior length is a bit short. I'm 5'-10" and I can just barely stretch out. If you're taller, I'd look for a larger tent.

Bought this for a backpacking expedition and was very disappointed. It is significantly heavier than the specs state. It is a slow set-up because the poles must be run through a sleeve; it does not rely entirely on speed clips. Also, the rainfly only goes on one direction, and it takes several stakes and guy lines to be fully functional. Two of the pole ends pulled out of the plug when I took the tent down. These are not backcountry friendly if the campsite is rocky or under windy/stormy conditions. Sadly, I will return it.

Satisfied with product. Would recommend extra layer of water proofing as leaks at seams and joints do seem to be a problem. Felt stable, comfortable more cozy for 2 people. I wouldn't recommend much over my size (6' 200lbs) and girlfriend size (5'5'' 120lbs). It rained for close to 24 hours straight and probably 32 of the 48 in the Linville Gorge area of NC. Overall satisfied with product for cost. My last tent was a bulky behemoth from 1981...so a step up.

I've used the ALPS Mountaineering Zenith everywhere--from the wilds of Southern Utah to the heights of the Cordillera Blanca.
After three years of moderate use (10+ trips/year) it has held up nicely.
I expect I will have to use a water-repellent treatment to rehabilitate vulnerable weather points (seams and zippers, mostly).
Other than that, it has required no maintenance.

We used this tent car camping and backpacking. It held up to a week of getting put away wet each day and still being great shelter. Kept us dry during heavy rains on the the Washington coast. Light and easy to set up.

haven't used yet.set-up seems roomy enough for two...Costa Rica bound -plenty of screen for us and the tent sets up quick! The fly is fairly stealth in color [wish these tent makers would consider more of a stealth color to their flys!] This fly has many [6]tie downs, it may prove to be a bit tricky in a night pitch.....2 doors is a plus too.

Simple, easy to set up two-man tent. Nice and roomy for one person, but a little cramped for two. A bit heavy, but perfect if splitting between two packs. Shed rain well. Collected some condensation inside.
