So I wanted to update on this tent. A lot of debate on the usefulness. i received mine and have been monkey around with it in my yard. to get a good feel of it. First off, I am 6'3" I BARELY fit. My feet have to be all the way to the bottom of the tent to fit comfortably. This isn't bad just not a whole bunch of head space. Second about the rain coming in. Just crawl through the opening in the front instead of the side. The vestibule is decent to give coverage.
Here is my pros and cons so far.
Pros: Light, Easy setup. Has plenty of head space to sit up; Pack down easily and doesn't take hardly any space; Glow and the dark internal zippers(easily to spot at night) Enough space for my size to roll around without being confined.
Cons: Zippers snag quite easily; The tie offs to hold the doors in place are not good. they use a T-loop hook tie and the loop is too large so the T-hook falls out easily. This needs to be elastic to help hold in place. Mine came with only 6 tent posts but it seems to need 8.
Overall, I think it's going to work well! For the cost you cant hardly beat it. I usually carry a REI quarter dome 2 and its bulky compared to this. I needed something smaller but didn't want a bivy bag.

McCaskillDo you have any pictures of the shelter when pitched (interior and exterior)? How tight are the sidewalls given that there are no mid panel pullouts and no line-locs on the floor guy outs.

PitZipI took photos at dawn and they aren't good. i will take some today with sunlight. The side walls are fairly taught. there are 2 ground staking points in the center of the tent which allows you to stretch it out quite well to keep the sides firm. I will get some photos of everything it will explain a lot more.
