-Quick to setup and light? Yes -Easy to get in and out of? No -Comfortable? Not at all -Breathable? Only if using the mesh door (i.e. it’s not raining) -Good visibility of the night sky using the mesh? No (the design makes the flap hang on your face) -Doesn’t let in condensation? Nope -Waterproof? Hell no! Just used this for four nights on the West Coast Trail. Each night without rain, the entire inside ceiling was wet with condensation. To the point I had to dry out my sleeping bag each day. The one night it rained, I got soaked. My sleeping bag was drenched through and through. It was easily the most miserable night of camping I’ve ever had. Maybe if I go camping in a very dry environment, I might try it again but I doubt it. Back to lightweight tents for me. It’s worth the extra few pounds.

Havent used it yet but its small, light and fits in my bag without taking up much space!

It's definitely small but worth the weight savings over the 2 person tent I was using previously. A little condensation accumulated overnight despite only the mesh being used.

I Keep One In Every Vehicle
I have a few of these boys although not as rugged as the alpine which I carry with me in the back country, it is really light and packs down easy for assurance when you might need it. Part of my 10 essentials for a day hike or to keep in my vehicle for backup.
