My hubby and I love the outdoors and we go on camping every summer. We use our Big Agnes Copper Spur UL 2 tent for two persons. He bought it for $ 399 and I think that was way too expensive for a tent which we would only be using once a year. He is an assistant scout master and he reasoned out that he will use it for his scouting activities and he needs a high quality tent.
This tent is very light it only weighs 3.6 lbs compared to other tents, it fits two persons and measures 52" wide and 90" long and the interior space is 29 sq. ft. It has a DAC Featherlite NSL aluminum poles which is very light and durable. Setting up the tent is fast and easy with the single hub/pole design.
Aside from being light weight and spacious I can tell that our tent provides proper ventilation and there is a minimum condensation build-up compared to the other tent we have probably because of its' large D-shape doors. It has two doors and vestibules making it easier and comfortable for us to get in and out of the tent. It is also coated with waterproof material. It stood against the rain and strong winds when we went camping in Oregon. The floor is made up of rip-stop nylon which is heavy-duty against tearing.
I guess the tent served its purpose especially when we we're in the middle of a bad weather. It is light weight, water proof and I believe it will last long. I just hope the price is cheaper and more affordable for everyone who loves the outdoors and camping.
