Good to see you again. Sounds like a great deal and so neat you and your Mom got to make a memory trip. Those are priceless.

[@RevHiker]

Thanks👍 good to be back

[@dannyjohnson7155]

I'm glad you guys had a good experience with this so called company. Sadly I can't say the same. They took my money shipped half of my order. No response what so ever from them. So if you are thinking about ordering from them beware, I would elsewhere.

[@twiceborn_by_grace]

Great review, but I loved hearing about the fun and bonding you had with your mom. 😊

[@pjmnash]

You are a precious son! Wish my daughters would do things with me!

I bought the tent back in late 2018 when they were still TNH. Fantastic tent! Like you the only issue I had with it was the weight but I’m not an ultralight hiker so it doesn’t matter that much for me.

[@RevHiker]

Yep... ticks all the boxes but weight👍

[@nojaysimpson]

I have the TNH version from a year ago and it is one of the most durable tents Ive seen. Takes snow, wind and rain like a champ. Agreed its a 1.5 person.

[@RevHiker]

I was very happy with the quality of the tent, especially for the price! Cant wait for some good weather to sleep without the fly... the open top would be great to watch the stars

[@woodatuse]

Sir what temp range bag did you have?

[@JSWilliamssr]

Rev, check out River Country Products. I bought a one-man tent from them for $40. It weighs around 2.5 pounds and is ROOMY. I took it to Mammoth Cave into the back country. It poured rain for 6 hours, but I stayed dry. Great tents for cheap. Their two-man tents are around 3 pounds, 40 - 60 bucks.

[@Ghost-zd9cr]

I think for a tent that will fit in a pack at 4lbs is pretty lightweight. My pack weighs more empty than the tent does bagged up

[@05generic]

Drew, did you use a footprint with it? Does it need one?

[@RevHiker]

I didnt use a footprint... put it directly on the snow

[@jeffwrinkle575]

4 pounds for a 4 season tent is decent and for $99 is a great deal

[@RevHiker]

Dont know if I would call it a full 4 season... doubt it would take a huge snow load, but a light 4 season for sure.

[@mikebrock2853]

This company, Rakaia, is a scam. Check out their reviews on Facebook. If you order from them, you will be ripped off.

[@r.w.7232]

Well, it's a good thing we didn't want to actually see what the tent looks like.

@@RevHiker a 3-second clip? Just saying, if you're going to review a product, at least show the actual product. Talking about it for 12 minutes is not a review. LOL
