This is a sweet tent!It is very light for a 2 man tent and it has plenty of room.I bought it because it has doors on both sides of the tent so that if some one needs to answer natures call they do not have to wake up the other to get out.I also love the duel vestibules which provide enough room to keep your gear out of the rain.All and all its one of the best 2 man 3 season tents out their period!

Product Description:
Gaze at the stars while you drift off to sleep with the Eureka Mountain Breeze two-person back-country camping tent. Built with see-through mesh walls that in effect turn the Mountain Breeze into a full-sized skylight, the tent offers a terrific view of the stars above and tremendous ventilation on hot days. At the same time, the tent boasts ample headroom and legroom, so you can sit up, lie down, and stretch out in luxurious comfort--a rarity for a two-person tent. And should the weather turn, you can add the 40-denier, silicone-treated polyester fly to protect yourself from rain or wind.


The see-through mesh walls provide unmatched ventilation.The Mountain Breeze is built using Eureka's StormShield technology, which helps you stay dry even during inclement weather. The tent's vented construction and breathable fabrics allow cross ventilation to minimize the condensation inside, while the bathtub floors wrap up the sides of the tent to keep water outside. The tent is also built to last, with a 70-denier nylon taffeta floor and nylon taffeta walls, all of which are reinforced in high-stress areas to protect against wear and tear. The tent's durable guyouts, meanwhile, are designed to hold tight even during hard rains and high winds. Best of all for hikers, the tent is a breeze to set up, with a single-piece pole and DAC Sunflower Connector Hub system.


The tent's floor plan includes sleeping space for two people.Specific design features include a pair of vestibules that offer 12.5 square feet of protected gear storage each; two side-opening doors that provide convenient entry and exit for both campers; two interior storage pockets that keep essentials within close reach; four hanging loops to accommodate flashlights and other accessories; a gear loft; and a light packing weight (4 pounds, 14 ounces). The Mountain Breeze measures 84 by 52 inches (W x L) and stands 40 inches tall at its highest point. All Eureka tents carry a lifetime warranty.
About Eureka!
Though the exact year is unknown, Eureka's long history begins prior to 1895 in Binghamton, New York, where the company still resides today. Then known as the Eureka Tent & Awning Company, its first wares were canvas products--most notably, Conestoga wagon covers and horse blankets for nineteenth century American frontiersmen--as well as American flags, store awnings, and camping tents.
The company increased production of its custom canvas products locally throughout the 1930s and during the 1940 and even fabricated and erected the IBM "tent cities" just outside Binghamton. The seven acres of tents housed thousands of IBM salesmen during the company's annual stockholders meeting, which had since outgrown its previous locale. In the 1940s, with the advent of World War II and the increased demand for hospital ward tents, Eureka expanded operations and began shipping tents worldwide. Ultimately, upon the post-war return of the GIs and the resultant housing shortage, Eureka turned its attention to the home front during the 1950s by supplying awnings for the multitude of mobile homes that were purchased.
In 1960, Eureka's new and innovative Draw-Tite tent, with its practical, free standing external frame, was used in a Himalayan Expedition to Nepal by world renowned Sir Edmund Hillary, the first person documented to summit Mt. Everest only six years earlier. In 1963, Eureka made history during its own Mt. Everest ascent, with more than 60 of its tents sheltering participants from fierce 60+ mph winds and temperatures reaching below -20
