I bought this tent at a reasonable price here. I assumed it was the SL version so jumped on the price without thinking. I'm still happy with the non SL version. Not a "pro" hiker so take my comments with a grain of salt =)very spacious for single person, but seems a bit snug for two unless both are using mummy style sleeping bags. Vestibule was smaller than all photos and review videos appear. Was disappointed there, but still there was plenty of room to stow my pack inside the tent proper without getting in the way of sleep---and I toss and turn. Vestibule held shoes, poles, rope, misc. with plenty of access room in and out. Had the pack stayed outside, I would be worried it would fall over or push through the material.Rain fly access zipper was awkward to close and open from within the tent. The vestibule angle is a bit steep so it places the zipper closing point at an uncomfortable reach from the tent opening. Opening and closing the rain fly door from inside meant I had to plant one hand on the earth to balance myself while reaching with my other hand to zip. This might get a bit of dirt or mud inside if you're not careful.Poles seems strong enough. I admit that I was a bit paranoid that I might snap one or two during first setup. Poles fit together nicely without much thought on my part. The elastic cord basically pulled the frame together on its own. I just had to make sure the segments were fully secure into each other. Tension was tight once I placed the second pole tip into the tent corner. Also when snapping on the last 2 or 3 top spine clips to connect the tent material to the frame, it really seemed like the spine pole was just a bit too long for everything to reach. After nudging some of the lower tent clips up, everything came together a little easier with minimal pressure. Rain fly went over easy enough. Wish there were instructions, but it's pretty self-explanatory.Everything folded up without issue and slid into the compression sack smoothly. Entire bag fit base of my backpack and pack straps held it well enough. Seemed to ease left or right over the course of the hike. It was never enough so that the tent bag pulled free of the pack straps, but I would check it every few miles. That could just be my packing though.Love the tent. Regret the non-SL version, but whatever. I don't do this enough to need the difference. Would suggest the footprint. Seems like there is enough slack in the compression sack to probably fit that too. That also may add more cushion to prevent the sliding that I noted on the backpack.I hope that helps?

I purchased my BA Seedhouse II from HumbleOutdoors for a little over $300, it came with a free BA footprint.This updated tent weighs just 2lbs 10oz, wow it like a feather in my backpack. The tent breathes well and is extremely sound in wind. So far after two outings , I am very pleased.

I was looking for a backpacking style tent that was going to have some extra room. I am 6' tall and around 215 pounds. After ALOT of research and reading customer reviews I purchased this tent. I paid around $200 for the tent and got a free footprint with it. I just spent the last 2 nights sleeping in this tent on a turkey hunting trip in central Florida. I really like that this tent is made of mesh. The first night of my trip was a little warm and humid as Florida is 80% of the year, however the tent had great ventilation and I was able to deal with it just fine. The second night it rained most of the night. The storm was really bad and had hard wind with it as well. The only part of me that got wet was the very end of my sleeping bag, I think the rain blew in from the rear mesh area, but to be honest I didn't do an amazing job staking the rainfly. Wasn't expecting rain and doing a better job making the fly tighter probably would have solved that. I was really impressed with the tent. This is also my first vestibule style tent. I really enjoyed being able to throw my shoes outside and still keep them protected from the weather.The only drawbacks I found was that its advertised as a 2 person tent. I know a 2 person tent usually means 1 person with gear and that is exactly what this tent is. I had the extra room I wanted, however I couldn't imagine squeezing a second person in there with me. The only other problem is for a backpacking tent it is kind of heavy and not that compact when broken down and put in the pack. The Seedhouse UL2 would probably be better suited for backpacking, but its an extra $100. Lastly if you buy this tent from a place that does not offer the free footprint, then buy it separately!!! Its a great piece of gear to add to your tent.
