Comments about 19630-Foliage/Dark Azure / One Size

Best deal I could find for this brand and everything came as expected. Fast shipping. Tested the tent out and no complaints.

My first tungsten 3p tent was purchased approximately 10 years ago and has been very well used (and well taken care of). I decided to purchase a new Tungsten tent because I just couldn't get the water to bead away after waterproofing many times over the years (Kiwi Camp Dry and Wood's silicone waterproof spray). Also, the velcro tabs kept coming off even though I I glued them back on... and the tent clips (that attach to the poles) were starting to tear away from the screening. Anyway, it had served me very well and I accepted that these are the things that slowly start to break down after many years of use. In setting up my new Tungsten tent, I instantly noticed the quality of materials did not match up to my old version of this tent. Material is finer (feels thinner), all of the strapping and buckles are smaller and there is just an overall feeling of cheapness to the tent. I've only been on a 5 day trip so far and it kept me dry. And I do appreciate the improvement with moving from plastic to aluminum for the piece that ties the main poles together. I expect it will serve it's purpose but just disappointed in the loss of quality in materials. I also suspect that it will not last as long as my old version. One last gripe, there are 8 points of tie down on the tent itself plus 4 more to secure the fly in high winds, for a total of 12 tent pegs required, so why does the tent only come with 6 pegs. I weighed the tent and fly and there is only a 5 gram difference between the old and new, so cutting quality on the materials wasn't to reduce weight. Very disappointed, I used to rave about this tent to everyone I knew but will no longer be recommending it unless the quality in materials is improved upon.

The Tungsten 3P tent held up in light rain and heavy wind on a backpacking trip along the west coast. Haven't tried it in heavy rain yet but so far, no condensation drips into the tent so that's a good sign. Also it packs down pretty light. Would recommend purchasing 4 additional stakes since this tent comes with 4 guy lines and no stakes for them.

I received the tent it seems to be made of high quality materials. I set it up on the lawn and it set up easily. Can't wait to get it out camping

We were just camping in the Swiss Alps at a festival and we had the most insane storms roll through with lightening/thunder and torrential downpours. It was so much rain that a massive landslide happened after this storm. This tent was in 4-5 inches of water for an hour or so until we could move it to higher ground with a break in the storm. We were were amazed and so thankful that all of our gear was dry. We ended up getting another intense storm roll in a couple hours later with rain and wind so intense it destroyed some of the other festival goers tents and canopy's. This second storm hit later at night and our only option was to ride it out in the tent. We were sitting on our air mattresses and could push on the bottom of the tent and feel several inches of water below it. We were definitely scared we would wake up the next morning in water with everything wet but this tent was amazing! When we woke up the next morning it was damp under both of our sleeping mats but everything else stayed dry. Incredible! The wind and rain was truly intense. I'd never experienced that level of storm in a tent before. I was sure either the tent would collapse or it would get blown away. I'm truly impressed with this tent! It is the first Marmot I have owned and I highly recommend!

Perfect tent for Summer camping. Size worked perfectly with our two person sleeping pad. Looking forward to using at Baxter this summer.

Very easy to assemble and pack up and it withstood a significant storm while several around me did not. I'm really happy with my purchase and looking forward to using it many more times.

I had to retire the older Marmot after several tours of duty in Europe at race tracks and racing here in the US. Never once had an issue in the 12 years. Ungraded and have this one now. These are quality tents

This tent is super easy to put up. Great design. The vestibules on both sides is awesome idea. Very sturdy in wind and packs up well for backcountry use.
