FACTORY 2NDS

The tear in the fly is barely visible unless you're really looking for it, and the zippers all glide smoothly—honestly feels like a full-price tent to me. For what I paid, the cosmetic flaw is a no-brainer trade-off.

The tiny cosmetic flaw is barely noticeable once the tent's pitched, and honestly it saves you a chunk of cash for something that functions perfectly. The zippers and seams all checked out on mine, so I'm glad I took the chance on a factory second.
