Pros
- A rainfly that reaches over the ladder keeps you dry while climbing in and out
- Memory foam mattress and an anti-condensation mat come in the box
- Pass through slots let you run a power cord inside without leaving a door open
- Clamps lock to the rack, so the tent is harder to steal in a parking lot
Cons
- Heavy for a soft shell at 131.5 lb; check the roof and rack dynamic load rating and follow the maker’s mounting instructions
- Costs as much as many hard shells
- Sleeps two, with no published mattress size
