An amazing tent for great value and fantastic customer support.
I borrowed the two man version of this tent for a recent camping trip that I did with friends and absolutely loved the design and how wind proof and rain proof it was on my trip. So I came home and ordered a three person version, so I would have a little more room for all my stuff in the tent. It arrived quickly and I am packed it and set it up. I thought it was missing the tiedown strings and stakes. And send an email to the address indicated in the packing. Within an hour they had responded that they were sending strings and stakes to me. Then I discovered as I was putting the tent away that the stakes were in a small packet under the tent when I unfolded it. So another email back to them the same day. hoping they hadnât sent them so quickly. By the way, this tent is very easy to set up with just one person. And I highly recommend it.

Very nice tent
Bought the 3- person lynx tent thinking itâd fit two. This tent actually sleeps 3 regular sized people, not any room for gear inside with 3 people, which is to be expected. Can stash gear in the rain fly vestibules, where itâs nice there are two doors and two vestibules. Rain fly works well. Rained off and on for 4 days when we had it up, sometimes heavy, and never a drop inside. Only potential issue is that the bottom is thin, but this also means it rolls down small. Easy to set up. Like it better and use it instead of our marmot tent.

Best tent under $200 for car camping. Unfortunately footprint not included.
I’ve been using it since september 2021. Many different spots, cold/hot and definitely windy/rainy. Seen everything but snow really. Always stayed dry. Camped in the mountains for 2 weeks straight and it laughed at every storm that came through. Even with driving rains, my fly never seemed to let rain mist through the vents, always stayed dry. I use it as a 1 person + gear tent. Definitely roomy enough for 2 people and gear as well, but will be a bit tighter. 2 doors and vestibules make it nice if using with 2 people or just 1 person. Highly recommended. Biggest con is not including a footprint. I did purchase that to help prevent issues with my inflated air mattresses and also water resistance. If you don’t want to pay for the footprint just get a $3 5×7 tarp from harbor freight and it will work just as well (better even).

Well made
Camping in Leadville CO for a couple nights, my teen son and friend took this tentâ easy to set up, room for them and their gear. Weâve just taken it on one trip, but seems sturdy, well made, happy with my purchase. Our other tent is a Big Agnes 3 person from 5 years ago, this one is just as good if not better.

Easy to set up
I used this 3p tent as a single person. The extra space is nice to have room to move inside the tent.

The tent has weathered monsoon storms during my first camp at Singapore, southern island. When weather is hot just need to unzip the fly for cross ventilation.
