Comments about Eureka Eureka Solitaire 3-Season Solo Tent:
I used this tent in a twenty-mile backpacking excursion in the Cascades. After I set it up the first time, set up became fast and easy. The fly really works--I got rained on and did not get wet. The only comment that I have that might be called a complaint is that this tent is small, and has a low ceiling. So getting in and out, getting into and out of a sleeping bag, etc, are a challenge. Ventilation could be improved by addition of another screened window.
Don't think because this tent is cheap, it is not a good product: it is as good as you would expect for lots more money.
