Clip Flashlight 2

Just spent a couple nights in this bad boy and I’m really happy with it. Both nights had intermittent showers like we get here this time of year and the tent preformed flawlessly. It packs up tight and I’m excited to do a backpack trip. It saves 4lbs on the tent it’s replacing. This is 100 a 5 star tent.Just a couple things- I’m coming from a free standing tent, it took me a sec to get the set up right. Not long at all, just a sec. it should come with more stakes. I’m sure I have some in my truck but I didn’t dig them out. The height is only at the door. I’m 5’8” and it took a little getting used to coming from a tent with the night in the middle.I still love this tent. The benefits were well worth the compromises. The vestibule is on fleek.

I haven't had the opportunity to take it backcountry yet, but it was exactly as described and easy to set up. Can't wait to try it out on a trip!

I had the 2010 version of this tent and it’s still going strong! Used it for all of my backpacking trips/ weekend trips. Great tent! Nice airflow so condensation doesn’t build up. If camping in winter or cold weather below 45° Make sure you have a good down or synthetic bag and high R value pad.

I have a late-90s version of the Clip Flashlight 2, which I've always used with a plastic groundcloth. The tent is still doing okay after 23 years and an estimated 350 setups and repacks. Zippers still work fine, stitches and fabric have held up, and although a few drips have started getting through, it's still reasonably rainworthy.If there's any downside to this tent, it's that it is staking-dependent; it will not free-stand.
