$60 for a 2 person tent with aluminum pokes and a full rainfly is a pretty good deal if you're in the market for something like this.

At 55" wide, it's a legit 2p tent. Kind of odd that it has an extra pole to push out one door, but not the other. I guess that makes one the primary door and the other a back door, as the lords intended. You get a second door, but extra headroom, so a little bit of both. I like that the rain fly only uses 2 stakes for the vestibule; good compromise between 1 stake and small vestibule, and 3 stakes.

The negatives I see (for my use) is that it doesn't use as much mesh as I'd want in the inner, and the fly doesn't seem to have vents.

How does this compare to the previous North Face tent deal? (Some other SDers complained about the material, etc.)

The NF one was 4 person, single-walled tent. More of a festival tent in a low-humidity environment than a camping tent. This Marmot tent is a 2-person, 3-season tent. They don't list the waterproof rating, so it's a bit suspect, and the doors in the fly are of a style that tends to let water drip inside the tent when you open them in the rain (the third pole is supposed to reduce that issue), but for $60 it appears to be a very good tent for car camping or short backpacking trips.

Edit: appears to be 2000mm waterproofing on the floor of the tent. (per Outdoorgearlab)

Probably not relevant for most, but they don't ship to AK and HI.
They cancelled my order 2 mins later.

Thanks for the info! Super helpful! Is 2000mm waterproofing on the floor any good?

It's better than some of the lower quality tents you'll see at 1200-1500mm, but there's certainly better. The big unknown is how durable the coating is. I ordered a few to replace some of the 2p Eureka tents used by my son's scout troop that are starting to die after ~5 years. Even if they only get a year or two out of them, it will have been a good investment.

I have 10+ tents and 2 of them are Marmot tents. I love the brand. This brand is better than any Walmart tent and has a slight notch above North Face tents. It's a good deal.

FYI: Link [marmot.com] to Marmot for more info. Seem like solid deal from a good brand name.

I currently don't own a 2 person tent so going to give this a try. I don't have a Sierra store where I live but I was able to get Sportsman to price match and will be picking it up on 10/17. Thanks op.
