I pitched my new Mono version 2 in a valley on top of the Remarkables near Queenstown before it rained and the wind came up. Was in the tent from 7pm due to rain till 7am when I woke to a beautiful fine day. I was dry and comfortable all night. Only drawback was trying to get changed inside due to the low ceiling height. I am 6 ft tall. Plenty of room otherwise for me and all my gear. I’m happy with my purchase.

For the price, solid little tent. If setup correctly (keep fly away from tent, tight lines, used almost all pegs), water and wind non-issue for me. Made it through 40 knot + gushing rain summer storm on Straddie with no leaks or lifts. Not a tent you'll sit up in but if you could the thing wouldn't pack down so small or as light. Good for what it is & meant to achieve.

I found this mono 1 to be not geared for wet weather, it seems to create condensation and large droplets of water come through after amn hour of constant rain, it has also collected mildew after only 2 months of use. It would definitely be more suitable for the summer and spring ..colder climate I have had to place another tarp over it to stay dry .. also one of the poles has snapped on my second night camping... The good points are it is roomy even though it's difficult to sit up in .. it has good little storage pockets and a strong ground floor .
