Backcountry palace

We've had this tent for 4 years and love it. As a family of 4, we all want to sleep in the same tent backpacking. This tent feels like a backcountry palace. It has lots of great headroom, two large doors to enter/exit, and the gear storage options are great for a lightweight tent. We opted to add on some extra gear lofts that Big Agnes sells to keep extra organized. It has taken rain and wind very well. It's very lightweight. No issues with condensation. The fabric is very durable even after kids bouncing off the walls. If we could change some things there's one side that slopes more dramatically down at the base where you sleep (by design). The person that sleeps here is more likely to make contact with the tent side with a shoulder due to the slope. The vestibules are a nice size but the option to use hiking poles to make a little sitting area just doesn't work that well in practice. Not a big deal since we don't use it that way much. The carry bag is somehow less durable than the actual tent so it didn't last long. Easily replaced though. We are very happy with this tent and would buy again and again.

Has lasted many years

We used this tent for years as a family backpacking tent. Now that the kids are grown, it is our car-camping tent. It has held up well over the years. Love that I can stand up (I'm 5'2") in the tent.

Nice tent but wish the zippers were different

I've been able to use the tent on one trip for four nights. This is my first big agnes tent and I purchased it because it is similar in dimensions to a 4P mountain hardware tent that had been used to death. Prior to this trip, I was stoked for its tall peak height and that it had the same overall dimensions but weighed less than my old tent. I live in the eastern united states with LOTS of mosquitos and found the mesh door zipper geometry and rainfly zippers awkward, slow and requiring two hands for operation. The vestibule wall is pretty steep so it's hard to get your feet out, get out, rezip tent and open the vestibule in one smooth motion to prevent mosquitos from bombing in. I started out solo and had two friends join - it slept the three of us quite comfortably with head/feet oriented between the doors.

The design features ceiling and side pockets for storage, and double-slider zippers, dual-door design, making it the perfect solution for organizing gear efficiently. The Big Agnes ultralight tent is a reliable partner for every outdoor adventure.

Care Instructions

Storage
Always make sure your tent is dry and free of debris before storing. Fold and roll your tent a different way each time to avoid permanent creases. Store in a cool, dry place. Never leave your tent in hot temperatures (such as a car trunk or attic space) for long periods of time, as it will damage the material coatings. Storing your tent damp can result in mildew growth, which may cause your tent to smell, leak, or delaminate. Mildew damage is not covered under warranty.

Cleaning
For light cleaning, sponge the product with warm water (not hot).

For more thorough cleaning you will need
• Wash basin (or bath tub)-Warm water (not hot)
• Waterproof Gear Cleaner (Big Agnes recommend products like Nikwax Tech Wash)
• Sponge

• Submerge your gear in warm, clean water. Gently agitate with hands. Empty dirty water. Repeat until most of the excess dirt/grime is removed and water is mostly clear
• Apply waterproof gear specific wash and gently work into fabric with sponge
• Rinse gear thoroughly
• Hang it up to dry
• Triple check that your gear is completely dry before storage or use
• Do not dry clean or machine-wash. Detergents and dry cleaning solvents will damage the fabric and ruin waterproofing
• Never use hot water, bleach, liquid detergents, or dishwashing liquids
• Allow to dry COMPLETELY before storage or use
• Avoid prolonged direct sunlight as UV exposure can compromise waterproofing

Seam Sealing
Big Agnes tents are seam sealed as part of their manufacturing process! This seam tape alone is durable enough to prevent water leakage. Any seams that have been taped do not need to be seam sealed with a liquid sealer unless you want extra protection. Make sure the seam-sealer is completely dry before re-packing your tent. Damage caused by misapplication may void warranty.

Zippers
Keeping your zippers clean will help keep the coils and sliders from wearing out. If filled with dirt, vacuum or brush zippers before storing tent. Big Agnes recommend Gear Aid Zipper Cleaner and Lubricant.
