Description: REI Quarter Dome T2 Plus is so easy to set up that even I can do this without Travis’s help in less than 15 minutes! The hub/pole set are pre-assembled and colored, so attaching the pole clips in the proper place is easy and quick. I love how the poles are attached by a strong rope inside; I can connect them together without any hassle. Also, they break down small enough to fit inside in your backpack. The poles are lightweight but strong, so we don’t worry about them breaking easily.
Since I’m such a neat freak, I love the abundant pockets of our tent! It certainly helps keeping our tent tidy. Plus, both of the two doors can be stash away in their pockets, making the entry/exit easy and snag-free.
We were promised that water wouldn’t drip or sneak through our tent during a rainy weather. During our first backpacking trip at Barr Camp, it was windy and snowed a little overnight. We were pleased to experience no problem with our tent!
Since Travis is 6’2″ feet tall, he often tilts his head to fit in a tent, so we ordered a Plus size for this tent. Travis can now enjoy resting inside the tent without head-tilting or knees bending to fit. As a petite lady, I have plenty of room inside the tent so we are happy with our choice.
However, the footprint is sold separately. We spent an extra $30 for it, because it certainly protects our tent from tear and wear. We’d highly recommend this tent to our friends.
