Light but fiddly - take a few more substantial pegs with you
By Steve
I love this tent. Plenty of room for one but don't even think about sharing this tent unless you are a couple and intend zipping sleeping bags together (etc!) You can't really use this without the inner as the inner is required to attach to the carbon rods for structure and stability. I tend to remove the carbon rods for packing so I can stuff all of the tent into a waterproof stuffsack on its own and believe me when I say this packs down to almost nothing. The slight draw back with this is it does make it a little more fiddly to put up. The titanium pegs although look like toothpicks are quite effective in firm ground but do not rely on them if the ground may be overly wet. While on the pegs, take extra care as they are grass coloured and VERY hard to see once detached from the tent/guys. Not sure how this stands up to wind as so far conditions have been pretty still. There are four additional guying points on the tent corners but as they are pretty low to the ground I am not sure how much wind stability they will offer. The stated "optional" hood does come with the tent but I leave this on all of the time. I'm really not sure what Terra Nova were thinking leaving this as an "optional" attachment because it both waterproofs the central seam and adds side stability to the overall tent. Highly recommended just score down slightly for the hood.

Pricy but worth it
By A. Moss
This tent is light as a feather and is easy to erect and pack away. This is the first good quality tent I've owned and it'll certainly add much comfort to my bike camping trips.It has bags of porch space that goes the full length of the tent, I could fit one other pannier bag besides my own gear and still had room to spare. The inner makes maximum use of the tent's footprint and the door is a clever vertical design and has plenty of room to get changed in, at least for those of us under 6 feet tall.It's lost a star because of the fiddly pole rain cover. It seems to be a bit of an afterthought but I guess it would need to stand up it some mean conditions and it could probably cope just fine in average UK summertime rough weather.

Perhaps a little too light?
By Last Cosmonaut
I have used a Laser tent for several years now, mainly for backpacking expeditions in the Scottish Highlands and there is no doubt that if maximum size/weight ratio and ultimate weight saving are your most important criteria (and cost isn't!), then this is the tent for you. The only problem I have had with it is that during VERY heavy rain, a fine mist of water penetrates the gossammer thin flysheet. I haven't been unlucky enough to experience several consecutive days of such conditions, but I can imagine that if you did, things might get a little uncomfortable. I would recommend utilising the optional guy points (at this price and quality, Terra Nova really should supply the guylines!) and buying 6 chunkier pegs for these plus the 2 main guys. When the time comes to relace it I might look at e.g. a Force Ten Helium 100, which weighs a little more, costs a chunk less and, more importantly, has a 5000 mm HH flysheet.
