Chose this tent over the Helix 1p tent from Alps
This is a great budget 1p tent. I'm 5'3" and there is plenty of room to keep my pack inside. Very easy and quick to set up. Good ventilation. The additional gear loft is a extremely handy, and there's two pockets on either end of the tent as well. Comes with some extra repair fabric/mesh and guy lines. I bought the footprint to go along with it and upgraded the stakes. 90s throwback color is a nice little bonus.

Great lightweight tent option
Great lightweight tent. Goes up super easy. Took it out multiple times last deer season. Only issue is the stakes and are kinda cheap. Bent a couple trying to pound them in hard ground. Little tight if you’re over 6’2.

Nice little tent
Good tent for the price and I am happy with my purchase. Easy to set up and take down. I have used it just once, but it held up to a very windy afternoon. It didn’t rain so I can’t comment on waterproofing.

Lightweight but quality, my grandson loves it!
My grandson loves this! He’s a boy-scout and goes camping. He said it was perfect!

Nearly perfect.
I got this as a tent for my teenage son to go camping, but I use it more than he has. It is high value, it is seam sealed, it is rugged, it is warm. Set up is basically idiot proof. The short version of the review, this tent is good to go. You won't regret buying it.The only potential con is the weight. 5 pounds is substantial for a one man tent. However in exchange for that weight, you get a freestanding tent, and a 70D floor. I have a big agnes copper spur UL 2 person tent that is much bigger and half of the weight, but it also costs 4 to 6 times the price, and is much more delicate. I also have a six moons designs solo that is one third of the weight, but is a single wall tent, non free standing, less rugged, and 2 to 3 times the price.This tent is perfect for entry level campers and backpackers that don't feel confident in finding the best place to set up camp. It is also for people willing to sacrifice weight savings for rugged reliability and simplicity.I love all 3 tents that I own, and for most situations, my Alps 1p wouldn't be my go to choice. However, if I were forced to pick only one tent to bring with me in a true survival scenario where reliability was my highest priority, I would most likely choose this tent. I don't think I can give it any better praise.Oh yeah, the factory stakes are garbage, but high quality stakes are cheap and easy to replace. Get yourself some MSR groundhogs with all the money your saved getting this tent and your g2g.

Pretty Good
Overall the quality of the tent is excellent for the price. Setup is fast and simple with no need for instructions. There are loops on the inside to hang items from but make sure to bring carabiners to hang from as the loop holes aren’t very big. I’m 6’4” and I fit but just me and very little room for gear inside. Don’t expect to be moving around much as it is very coffin like. Knowing this I would have opted for the two person size. So if you’re big like me, go with the size up. One last item, ventilation with the rain fly on isn’t great especially in humid climate. I spent most times pretty moist but most of that is the humidity.
