Great value
have owned a sirius 3 for 1 year after much serious (ha, ha) study. I love it. Very light weight for a 3 man tent, although I have only filled it with 2 men, and a dog, so far... Not a 4 season tent because the design leaves a mesh area under the vestibule wide open. still, this is a great value in last year's model, which I never mind.

FANTASTIC
I purchased this for motorcycle trips. Light, compact and very easy set-up (less than 5 minutes first time out of box). Great tent - great price.

Great Tent
Very light, fits easily into my pack and sets up in two minutes. Bought it thru the outlet and couldn't beat the deal.

After 3 months of use we are very happy with our purchase
So far we have used this tent on a good 7 or 8 trips. From below freezing weather at Yosemite (Toulomne Meadows) last weekend to over 100 degree weather at the Land Between the Lakes in Kentucky and everything in between. This tent is very easy to set up, comfortable for my family (it's just three of us) and so far we have not experienced any condensation. we've only had rain once and we were bone-dry inside. My only two issues are: 1.the zippers tend to catch the fabric a little too often though you can minimize thie with experience, and 2. it doesn't fit inside my backpack (with all the other gear) so I have to carry it attached to the outside of my internal-frame Osprey backpack. Again not a big deal. I strongly recommend getting the footprint. Given that we were considering a $400 tent we are more than happy with the Sirius 3.

Good Tent
First off this tent is really light-weight. Fits 3 people comfortably. Tent had little to no condensation. Recommend this to any serious backpacker.
