[QUOTE="jmden, post: 656038, member: 1742"] Yeah, it's small, but the footprint is larger than several other 1 man tents I looked at. Combined with the Easton superlight carbon pole, this lets the tent still use somewhat more robust fabrics than other 'superlight' tents and still come at 2 lbs. A side entrance has often seemed easier to get in and out of for me as well, but with this design in rain, you may get a bit of rain in the tent when getting in and out--some designs are getting better with this issue. Yep, getting in and out of the tent--all of your gear will not fit on the far end of the vestibule, although it would be close. It's actually a pretty good sized vestibule (10 or 11 square feet as I recall, compared to other 1 man tents), but all things considered, this seemed to be the best compromise of what I was looking for. Have owned a Nemo Gogo 'bivvy tent' (just sold it to help fund this purchase) in the past and a regular goretex bivvy--the ability to sit up in your tent and move around a bit is huge in inclement weather and this thing weighs less than the bivvy sac I have and the bivvy tent I used to have.
