Quality seems pretty dang good! I'm used to light weight ground tents so this thing is like a house! I researched many many tents before actually purchasing this one. I had narrowed it down to a CVT, iKamper, Or Tuff Stuff (alpha) I believe. The last 2 are hard shells. I recommend that once you get narrowed down as to which tent you want, call some of the companies or warehouses that carry them and see if they have any deals or specials. Online they won't tell you these things. For instance if you drive to the CVT store in TN, you will get a discount on the models there vs shipping from somewhere or ordering. Make sure your rack will fit your tent though! That's the issue i'm having now. I have too much of the tent overhanging over the ends, so I need a larger rack. Trying to sell this rack and purchase a different one but that isn't going as planned either lol!!!
