The best features of this tent are the full length rain shield, four aluminum poles, and reinforced seams. Things I am not crazy about are: the thin floor, zipper quality, and stakes. The tent also takes a while to set up (the poles do not easily go into the sheath).Overall a fantastic tent for the price. I used it in thirty mph winds and the tent held up great. Have not been subjected to rain yet but looking forward to see what it can do.
