This is an excellent tent to place in your pack. It is too low to fit a cot in though.

Given the price, dont expect much. The center pole isn't even the right length. But it seems like it will work.

The tent is alright for a quick little trip. It goes up fairly quickly and easily and has plenty of space for one person. If you're as tall as I am though, or anything over six foot, you may have to sleep diagonally in it to fully stretch out.Unfortunately it does have a lot of downsides, but what would you expect from a tent at this price? First, and most baffling of all, is the little window on the back. It does indeed have a zip-down flap to cover it but this flap is located on the EXTERIOR. If, say, you want to close it in the middle of the night, you will have to go outside to do so.The tent stakes it comes with are about as flimsy as cardboard, but it's easy to get better stakes. The out flaps that cover the doors only have nylon ties with which to tie them together. If you don't tie them in a perfect bow, they might slip and become your average knot and unless you are a rather small person, you won't be able to get out until you untie the knot which may be an hour or so.Finally, the material of the tent itself is very thin. On the first day of using it my dog tripped over one of the lines tying in to the sides and this put a big rip in the side.So if you are a small, sure footed, flexible person who doesn't mind doing elaborate things just to operate the tent, this for you. So really this is perfect for an olympic gymnast.
