'LIGHT WEIGHT AND HUGE PORCH (200+) BUT INNER TENT TOO SHORT'

Strengths:

Ability to pitch flysheet and inner simultaneously. Light weight and small pack size. Big porch and loads of room to keep kit. Build quality.

Weaknesses:

I'm 181 cm tall and can't comfortably sleep on my back with my feet pointing upwards as they press into the inner tent. The inner tent slopes upwards at a shallow angle at the foot end and is just too low where my feet are. It seems a shame that the inner tent is made so short given the overall length of the 200+. Footprint (available separately) is expensive although it does cover the porch area. Inner tent fabric could do with reinforcement where the stitching for the inside pockets is.

Overall:

I'm very pleased with it. For me the main shortcoming is that I can't comfortably sleep on my back due to the inner tent pushing against my feet. Fortunately, I'm more of a side-sleeper which does alleviate the problem.
