 Eureka Performance Zeus 3 LE 7.5-Foot by 6-Foot Three-Person Backpacking Tent By: Eureka Average Rating: 4.0 Total Reviews: 2 More Information Read before you buy  On: 2007-09-23To the other gentleman complaining about the lack of a rainfly please do some research or know at least something before you make a comment about it. This model tent doesnt come with a rainfly because it is a SINGLE WALL TENT. Single wall tents by design do not come with, or need a rainfly. Thats why people buy single wall tents. I own one, along with many others that have flys. The advantage of a single wall tent is that it can be erected in the rain without soaking the inside of the tent, practically all tents that come with a rainfly have mesh ceilings, walls or are completely made of mesh. Put one of those tents up in the rain and see how comfortable you are that evening. However single wall tents are most often used in high winter locales, like mountain climbing, where its basically dry. Humid locations shouldnt use single wall tents due to condensation. Next time read before you buy and\\or put something down because you didnt understand its use or description. Value But No Rain Fly Makes Me Wonder  On: 2007-04-05I will update this review after my first overnight in the rain. Ive just set up the tent and was surprised there was no rainfly included. As a minimum this would help with condensation. I have a Sierra Designs tent with a partial rainfly and am sold on FULL rainflys. They are a great insurance policy. Also, there is no custom footprint sold separately, which I would like to have. Yes I can somewhat easily make my own. That said. The tent went up in a heartbeat, looks sturdy, is lightweight, and the vestibules are wonderful, especially in the expected rain here in the Pacific NW |
