REASONABLY PRICED AND RELIABLE
Great tent,waterproof and very easy to pitch(less than 10 minutes),stable in high winds.
No way near enough room for 3 MEN(like most 3 man tents).
A great looking GREEN tent(I do not like luminous coloured tents)which pitches easily and quickly.Used it in the peak district and the lakes in wet and windy conditions,it was dry and very stable unlike some of the other tents nearby which looked a bit worse for wear in the morning.There are 2 entrances with lots of storage space so you haven't got to speed the night with wet gear.Condensation seems to stay away from the inner tent as long as you don't rub against the sides too much.Try and buy one for a lot less than the RRP.

DOES WHAT IT SAYS ON THE TIN.
Watertight. 2 vestibles of which one is massive. ventilation ok. 5 guy points, plenty of pegs to double peg and flysheet tensioners. Good head room although the inner space seems to reduce when the inner doors are closed due to the slanting entrance walls of the inner.
high weight penalty if carried between two people whilst backpacking but we managed ok. Very tight inner if 3 men were to share but is certainly possible. Inner floor space was 100mm shorter on length and width than advertised.
I Got this tent heavily reduced as were clearing the lines to makeway for the 2008 model just after Xmas. I've used it for 2 nights on Dartmoor mid April08. Had some heavy rain in the night plus constant 20-30mph winds. Shrugged the weather off no problem and put no strain on the tent what so ever. Despite the weight of 4.5k the extra room came in handy for cooking and getting changed in cold wet weather and was nice that my friend and I could eat together under cover. Seems more aerodynamic if pitched small vestible into the wind although we tried it sideways and performed just as well but it wasn't blowing a gale, just 20-30mph winds.
