I am a regular backpacker and walker and the trade off between weight and space in a tent is perfectly balanced here. At a tad over 1kg the solo straps neatly onto the outside of most packs/bergens. The only downside is the necessity to pitch the inner tent first but putting the whole rig up takes less than 2 mins if you are against the weather.
There is plenty of room to move about and the tent has been well thought out when it comes to little details like a strop to hang a lantern from, inside.
I am 6ft tall and had no problem propping myself up to rread in bed at night. The porch was big enough for my pack and the full length insect net in the inner tent has allowed me to have a cool night in the heat of the summer.
I last used my tent in an october gale and rainstorm and it's low profile and sturdy construction kept me warm and dry, without any condesation at all.
I recommend this tent as affordable and able to stand up to adverse weather while being lightweight and comfortable.
