Suma Tent: 2-Person 3-Season

Was looking for a good lightweight tent for backpack hunting and hiking the AT. This one has been great. Plenty big enough for one person and gear. Two people could sleep in it, but there wouldn’t be room for packs or anything else. It’s been used on a couple of trips so far and is doing fine. Easy to set up. It stayed dry through a heavy rain. No complaints.

The stuff sack for the tent is pretty tight, you have to pack it just right. The poles don't "clip" into place, so they can come out of the tent shell grommets somewhat easily when setting up. Stayed in place during the night. Plenty of space for one person, might be cramped with two. Pretty lightweight.

Perfect, simple backpacking tent

This. tent. rocks. So simple to set up. Very light. Do you see the price? Look at the price, look at the weight. Then consider that it has a vestibule. We use cut-to-fit Tyvek underneath for a ground cloth. Stays dry and cozy in a cold November rain. Or in January. Dry dry. The ONLY reason I give it a -1 is that it has needed two repairs due to production errors. One on the bottom edge of the rain fly, the other at the peak of the tent. Eureka has a fantastic repair & parts operation. Both repairs gratis. We're still rocking with this tent, and it has been several years or so. It sees monthly Scout outings. Very pleased we are with this one.

Cozy tent

This tent is a perfect fit for my wife to use on our backpacking adventures. It offers a great balance of lightweight and budget friendly. It is very easy to setup. The only downside is the single opening. A second door would be nice so you aren’t crawling across your partner for a 3am bathroom break. If you’re looking for a basic tent for two, or extra room for yourself, this is a great option.

Poles do not last more than 7 uses.

Great tent, but after only 7 uses the tent pole snapped. This was used for Scout camping at base camp, never took it backpacking. One of the other Scout leaders bought this same tent with my recommendation, he has used his more frequently that I have and has already had the poles break numerous times. This would be the perfect tent if the poles were more rugged. Eureka tents are a tradition in our Scout Troop, this is very disappointing... We may have to rethink future purchases...

a successful christmas present!

i purchased this tent for my middle grandson, who loves camping, as a christmas gift. according to him this is the perfect tent and will fit on his backpack and he will be using it soon.

Very happy overall with the product. Like many other products, can be hard to repack it into the original storage sack. Easy to set up and take down. I enjoy the flared out front cover to store my shoes and bag under.

Great product for the price. I looked over lots of ultralight tents and decided on this tent because of its strength and free standing ability. I bought the optional matching tent footprint. I would have given the tent a 5 star but there was no attachment point to pull and stake out the rain fly at the foot to keep it off the tent in the rain. I took a piece of the webbing from the bag, cut it off and had it sewn on the rain fly in the location i needed it. Works perfect now

Great in rain and space

Got this as a gift and used it on a three day canoe trip where it rained non stop. Only area that got a bit wet was where I hd pushed up against the fly during the night. Could do with another guy line on the side to stop it resting against the inner. Gear loft is a great size and addition for those small items, glasses, flashlight etc and I way prefer that over side pockets.

Excellent service. Quick turn around. Locally was qouted 3 weeks. Arrived in 5 days. Our scouts love them. Easy set up and take down.
