Description
The semi-freestanding Superalloy 2-Person Tent is ultralight, yet still has the premium features you need to make your campsite the ultimate home away from home. Its vertical walls provide plenty of sleeping space, while the strategic clip placement offers more interior volume for stretching out. If the forecast turns, the rain-shield flysheet won’t stretch out after it gets wet, plus it resists UV damage. Its vented seam-taped full-coverage fly and bathtub floor provide additional weather protection. Color-coded “easy pitch" clips and poles make it easy to set up quickly. Stash your pack, poles, and other gear in the two vestibules and tuck a headlamp into the UV lampshade pocket.

Great little tent so far
Disclaimer I am a novice, but this tent met all of my hopes and expectations. Its light, its easy to set up, its semi-freestanding, and the design allows for a great view without the rainfly. Arguably if you need it for any warmth you will need the rainfly on, otherwise you're basically outside minus the bugs.
Did not test in rain. Did not test in very cold.

Backpacking Go To
Took this tent on a 3 day trip up the Hoh River in Olympic National Park. Not surprisingly it rained the entire time. Tent was light weight easy to set up. After sitting in the rain all day the rain fly would sag in a few spots and push up against the tent, but was able to stay dry in a down pour. The vestibule entry is a little low for me as I couldn’t get in it without rubbing against the rainfly which evidently shook a lot of the water free and spattered into my tent a bit. But overall a great tent, feels like a 1 person tent all packed up

Great Tent
Got it last summer and used it on a number of short backpacking trips. It is much lighter than my old tent and really well engineered. I find it very satisfying how all the parts fit together and I feel like every detail was thought through well. It also feels more spacious than most tents I've seen with similar weight. Love the door on each side but it makes shaking out dirt extremely difficult. Defiantly worth it though so you aren't claiming over each other to get to the single exit at the feet (like my old tent)

Marmot almost got it...
I have not camped in this tent but it looks like it will be fine. My initial thought is why did they should just make this a full freestanding tent.....so close and the weight penalty would be worth it.Another Y system on tall end of tent! The color needs to be more subtle for stealth camping. this is like safety vest green! The loop on top inside of fly was not well thought out. Should be sewn on diaganol and the poles look like they may wear thru the fly on the tall side of tent. It is very roomy. I am thinking they should make a 1.5 person tent just but put the Y system at both ends.

Will NEVER recommend
I bought this tent after owning the Marmot Tungsten 3 person for close to 5 years now. And I couldn’t recommend that tent more! I’ve slept over 100 nights in it from the Canadian mountains to the Grand Canyon to Alaska. I’ve set it up and taken it down 30+days in a row and slept in dry clear nights to a foot of snow. I’ve also slept in multiple other tents by brands like MSR and MEC.
So when I wanted to get a ultralight 2 person tent for hiking the JMT (whenever that’s allowed again for us Canadians) I thought I’d buy one this year and test it out on my few backpacking and front country trips this summer and fall. Well I’m glad I did because this tent was HORRIBLE!
Every night we woke up wet regardless of if it was clear and warm to raining. The condensation was horrible. There’s comfortable room for 1 person and 2 is a bit of a squeeze. The fly is flimsy and doesn’t stop rain as it doesn’t come down far enough. In rocky areas it’s difficult to set up and even on soft ground I find it’s hard to pull the semi-free standing design in order for it not to sag. The pockets hold nothing but maybe a pair of sunnies (as stated in other reviews). And my tent came with pulls in the mesh even before I took it out!
I do wanted to love this tent so much after I did all the research on which to buy, but I couldn’t recommend this tent less! Tried contacting Marmot a week ago with still no answer. So sad to spend so much on a very disappointing tent. I love Marmot but this tent is a FLOP for them. Needs much improvement before I’d ever consider purchasing again!

Issues with the super alloy 2 person tent.
The rain fly stuck to the inner tent and the dew dripped all over us as we slept. No footprint was available and when we used the recommended company Golite gear trekker who makes the foot print and it was the wrong dimensions!!

Great for summer, too breezy for cool weather
The tent is lightweight, fairly easy to pitch and packs small. It's a really pretty color that lets the moonlight shine in. For one person it's nice and spacious. For two it would be okay, not so spacious but there's plenty of room in the vestibules.
The fly is skimpy, it stops about 6 inches short of the ground, and if the tent is not pitched foot end into the wind then the breeze whistles through the sides of the tent, as the inner changes from solid to mesh at about the same height that the fly stops. In summer this would be nice. In cool weather it's a real problem. 2 big backpacks would block the wind, but for solo backpacking or bikepacking I would have nothing suitable. I'm really disappointed about this as I really like lightweight+compact+spacious; surprise windchill is not fun.
If the shorter pole could be attached to the longer one (elastic bands maybe?) then the tent could be pitched fly&footprint first, this would be great in wet weather. I would like to divide the bag into 2, one for the wet fly and the other for the dry inner. It was a surprise that the guyline was supplied as a separate bundle of cord, it would have been nice if it had been fitted and if the same reflective cord as on the doors had been provided.
