 wish i got the regular Apex 2Jul 29, 2010
you would think the apex 2xt would be superior to the regular xt b/c it has more storage space using outside vestibules. But the design seems flawed as the vestibules don't really get taut enough. Tent doors are mesh only, not mesh and full, and vestibule covering is full fabric only not full and mesh. It makes for an awkward design when you're in the tent.
Condensation was also a problem so you really need to keep open your "private" vestibule covering. I would seriously look into the regular apex 2 before buying this XT version. I wish i had.
 Solid TentJul 27, 2010
I bought this tent for camping in the Badlands over the fourth of July. It was great. Roomy enough for me and all my gear, and I was even able to fit all my cooking gear in the vestibules. It rained, no the sky opened up and it poured on my last day there, but I had taken the advice of the other reviewers and made sure the rainfly was on tight. I stayed nice and dry and didn't even get any condensation inside the tent. I had, however, waterproofed the rainfly a couple days before I went camping.
The only reason I can't give it 5 stars is closing the vestibule from inside the tent is awkward, but having known that ahead of time made it not that big of a deal.
Also didn't have the same bug attraction problem some people have complained about.
All in all a great tent, especially since I got it for $80 including two-day shipping, so if you can find it for ~$70 I'd buy it!
Great lightweight tent, seal before first use!!!Jul 23, 2010
I own this tent, it is very well ventilated, very light to carry and super fast to setup. One big GIANT problem. The zippers on the rain fly leak like sieves, my shoes and some of my gear got soaked. So I am off to go seal this thing before it rains again.
 Love itJul 23, 2010
I took this on an easy camping trip, while it was still in the box. without even look at the directions i set it up. when i broke it down it fit easily back in the bag with room to spare. i am very satisfied with the tent. i did not however put the rain fly on.
Good Compact TentJul 20, 2010
Great quality tent so far. Easy to set-up and take down. A little tight for 2 full size adults, but not uncomfortable by any means. Packs up nice and small, fits easily in the side bag of my Harley FLTRI.
