Great ventilation... I was able to stay inside the tent with an open rainfly (shaded) at 90 degrees. That gossamer mesh tent body means no condensation to contend with, and great views on clear nights. I was also very impressed with the weight... light enough to tempt an ultralight backpacker. We stayed dry throughout a 9 hour downpour, too! The down side (and its a big one, in my opinion) is that the tent body itself is very delicate (natch, being all mesh). Staking the tent down with the edges taut resulted in "runs" in the mesh netting in various areas. I didn't really stretch the tent incredibly taut, just snug, but it resulted in several little 1/2" runs scattered throught the tent canopy and upper sides. Stake the tent loosely (or not at all) and stake the fly taught and you should be fine, I think. However, if you're camping in windy conditions this could be a problem.

I love this tent .... I use it for two person sleeping, plus some gear. The base of tent has seams up off the ground, so moisture getting in is not an issue! I would use a footprint/tarp to help the floor last longer ... in their effort to keep it light, it seems a bit thin. It is also well ventilated with the fly off, I haven't used it yet with the fly on. All around, I can't wait to do more camping with this tent! Great purchase!
Set this up the first time without any instructions. Easily done - though I missed a small step once I read the instructions. But this goes to show how easy and quickly the tent could be done. It is VERY roomy and one can just use the fly and footprint to save weight. This set up is just as easy.
