I'm just back from a week's camping in the Klondike and am very happy with it! I know what you mean about the gaps and the eyelet holes at the front door entrance but didn't really have any trouble with that. The A frame stood up well using those grey pockets. One thing to make sure of is that you secure the guys that hold the rain cowl down properly. I left mine too loose and the cowl flipped up in strong wind letting the rain in. My mistake though as should've realised that!

I am interested in this tent. Has anyone bought the inner tent for it? I would like to know if a double mat would fit in the inner.

Looks good to me those are just the line of the fabric draping down in line with the seam!

It's the lie of the land underneath, creating areas of slightly more stress. Let the guy loosen (very slightly) and I bet the next time you pitch the tent on a different bit of land this will not happen.

Hi cayzi - I thought your tent looked ok to me however as mentioned by campernic it could be do to do with the ground you've pitched on. Personally so long as it stays up, doesn't leak, doesn't get damaged I'd say all is well :)
