Needs Pockets

I love how it gives you the stand up room and I like how the door opens and closes vs the other ones. What I don't like is the fact that you took away the side pockets which I used all the time. I will have to find something to use as a "pocket".

Weak Wind Design

We bought this tent and its vestibule for a family camping trip in Scotland, hoping to count on the quality of the brand. While the tent is indeed spacious and easy to set up, we were keenly disappointed when during strong wind the tent nearly collapsed on us and our kids. Doubling the main guy lines did not help and the poles ended up significantly bent. This has to do with the frame design which just does not offer resistance to wind force in spite of the sturdy poles. Experience in wet weather was also not great due to the fly design exposing the tent inner sides. In our view, this tent is only fit for mild dry conditions, in which case it would likely perform well with good ventilation and setup versatility. We remain sadly disappointed with our first experience with Big Agnes.

Id Buy Again.

I love this tent. Very easy to put together/break down and very spacious.

Great Tent With Plenty Of Room!

Loving this tent so far! We used this during a recent 5 day camping trip. The design is great, setup is easy, and we left the rain fly off so we could see the stars. We love that we are able to stand up easily inside (5'6" and 6'1") which makes those middle of the night bathroom breaks much easier. Our bed hog of a dog had plenty of room to spread out in this tent, so we were all able to sleep well without feeling cramped! Can't wait to take this tent out on more adventures.

Great Tent, Terrible Door

I was impressed by the quality and thought that went into 90% of the tent. Colored poles, clips and corners make it super easy to set up. The garage that you can use or not use was an upgrade from my north face wawona that was completely integrated into the fly. It did fine in storms and days of rain. Great tent except the door. I never expected a 2 zipper door to be on a tent of this caliber and price so I didn't think to check. If you are new to camping the 2 zipper is a pain for a few reasons but the worst is having to make sure both zippers are toughing. If you don't bugs easily get in as that intersection is right at the ground. Good luck getting kids or anyone not super anal about this to do it in the middle of the night after going out to the bathroom. My marmots, northface and even my eureka have the now standard continuous zipper. This is a major pain that shouldn't have been and every time I go in and out it bugs me. I purchased this tent 2 years ago, i have a trip coming up I'll be using it on and my first thought was that freaking mis on the door. Out of curiosity I wondered if they changed it by now, they haven't. Same design I am shocked they haven't fixed it by now.
