2.0 out of 5 stars. Not for backpackingReviewed by mitchell from cleveland on Friday, April 19, 2019This would be a great back yard tent for kids, but the quality is poor. We like to backpack and are very careful with our gear. The mesh windows got 2 holes in them the second time we use it. and the zipper is breaking slowly but surely. The price is great. But you get what you pay for.

4.0 out of 5 stars. Month-long Ungava ExpeditionReviewed by Paint N Paddle Studio from Vermont on Sunday, September 16, 2018In preparing for an expedition from Hudson Bay to Ungava Bay, I found myself looking for a one-person tent. By "one-person" I mean what tent manufacturers rate as two. I was hesitant to buy this one though, ironically because it was so cheap! I found it on sale at Sierra Trading Post's new outlet in South Burlington, Vermont for $75! How good could it be? I went over it thoroughly though and it checked most of the boxes. It was early yet (May) and I figured I had time to get another tent if it seemed necessary. Never got around to looking for another tent of course so this one went in the kit as we departed for Montreal and then Umiujaq, Quebec on the east shore of Hudson Bay.
Ungava is famous for horrendous weather and hordes of biting flies, so a good, reliable tent is critical gear. This tent is good and reliable. It stood up to gale force winds and driven rain without a hitch. Its small footprint made it easy to find a space for (good campsites were few and far between on this route) and it was easy to pitch.
My only critique and the reason I haven't given it five stars, is the vestibules. They are miserly; only about 12" at the best so that there is barely room to get a pair of river boots in under them. The resultant proximity of the fly to the interior door also meant that the fly had a tendency to get caught in the door zipper. That was not only immediately annoying but could also eventually lead to leaks. That notwithstanding, I've never gotten so much for so little. This tent came through the long and at times difficult expedition with no damage and appears good to go for next time. A good deal at twice what I paid for it. -
5.0 out of 5 stars. Less is more!Verified Buyer Reviewed by Anonymous from North Carolina on Thursday, April 12, 2018Disclaimer: I just got this tent and haven’t used it outside yet.
Super easy setup right out of the bag; color-coded and perfect fit for the poles all around. The design is simple and elegant- no bells and whistles, aka less things that could go wrong/break!
I love that the tent is a perfect rectangle. Two people can fit comfortably in the tent, and there are enough pockets inside to hold valuables.
The color is somewhat dark with the rainfly, so I plan to get some reflective tape to stick somewhere on the tent for finding it at dusk.
I think this is a great value for a sturdy and smart tent. Definitely a good deal for someone who is looking to share the weight load with another backpacker for weekend hikes!

4.0 out of 5 stars. I bought two - what does that tell you?Verified Buyer Reviewed by Kris hikes Flagstaff from Flagstaff, Az on Thursday, March 8, 2018I purchased my first Celestial 2 tent last year for backpacking. It has worked so well we just bought a second Celestial 2 tent for our son who is also an avid backpacker. The tent sets up easily and is very stable in windy conditions. I backpack with my 50lb. dog frequently and the tent is perfect for the two of us. The netting on the tent prevents condensation problems and allows for star gazing when you don't need the rainfly. The vents on the rainfly work well to keep air circulating in the tent. The details in this tent make it a winner in our books!

5.0 out of 5 stars. Perfect for me - 1 person no-brainer!Reviewed by Jead from New Jersey on Wednesday, January 17, 2018I wanted a 1 person tent for car camping. Setup is really fast. Throw in a single or double size air mattress - inflate - and you still have room at your head or foot for an overnight bag or pack - Ideal for me. Full coverage fly, sturdy poles, good ventilation and 2 doors are a bonus. I've been in all kinds of weather from 100 degree heat to full on downpours and the tent has performed perfectly. Wind blasts from the side will try to push it in - but they will fail. Haven't had it out in the snow but I'm sure it will shed snow like a champ. Had this for 3 years now and used it probably 15 - 20 times. Still in like new condition. Replaces a Moss Starlet I paid 4X as much for in the 80's. Features on Celestial are better and durability is on par or better. Enough room for 2 - GREAT for 1. Buy good stakes and the footprint and for $150 or less you're good for a long time.

4.0 out of 5 stars. Easy set up And roomyReviewed by Air nav from Wyoming on Sunday, December 31, 2017I set it up in the living room when I got it home. Super easy and self-intuitive. The floor is thin so I recommend a ground tarp to protect the bottom and a ground cloth of some type to protect the tent floor from shoes and dog toenails. Suitable for two people of normal size (170 lbs) and a beagle size pooch with some gear. I’ll be using it for motorcycle, airplane and car camping. With rain fly on it immediately started to warm up. Appears to be a comfortable tent and a wise purchase. I’m satisfied so far.

5.0 out of 5 stars. So excited!Verified Buyer Reviewed by Em of Ohio from Ohio on Friday, November 3, 2017I bought this for my sister and her large dog who often go backpacking together. We set the tent up and were impressed with the ease of assembly and space. It’s a quite long tent that you’d have enough room for the dog at your feet along with a pack and even another person. There was nice storage pockets. We were super excited about the fact that the tent has windows that can be zipped and unzipped from the inside. I feel like thera will be much better ventiliation and temperature control now that we can close the tent up without getting out of the tent to unzip the rain fly. Although you have the option to be completely covered by the rain fly.

5.0 out of 5 stars. Great all around 2 man tentReviewed by Chris from Minneapolis on Monday, October 23, 2017I have had this tent for about 3 years now and have used it about 40 times. It's been in cold (below freezing) weather and in down pours and I have always stayed dry. I have camped on the rocky areas of the BWCA and on sandy beaches and I don't have any tares or broken poles. I do use a footprint which helps. For the price it has to be one of the best performing tents I have purchased. I used to have a Big Agnes Fairview 2 but it only had one door, one vestibule and smaller dimensions. It was lighter but the larger space and double doors make the Celestial more comfortable for me.
