Eureka Solitaire

[snake]

Anybody ever used the eureka solitaire tent? I know it's kind of small, but for the weight of the unit, I believe it will be perfect for what I want. Anyways, anybody with some experience let me know what you think.

I looked into this tent a lot because the size/weight and price were right. I never slept in one, though. I have heard condensation can be pretty bad, since it's small and not well-ventilated. It might work for a night or two, but I ultimately decided I didn't want to be in that thing for 9 days straight.

I used one for 6 years and never once had a problem. It has great venting since the top is mesh with a rain fly. I hated this tent though. I like to have my pack and everything in my shelter well with this you are a bear burrito. There is no moving around and well no quick way out of it, circus everytime you have to pee. Other then being really small it worked great. I never once had a pole break which alot have. If you don't mind close quarters I say get one because it is priced rigjt. I personally would look at a golite shelter and spend just a little more over this.
