I'm thinking about replacing my Sierra Design Sirius with the Marmot Eos 1P. Has anyone had any experience with it?

I was in REI the other day and tried this tent on. I loved it. However, very unfortunately, it's too small for me. I'm about 6 foot 1 or 2, and I barely fit in there, not to mention being in there in a sleeping bag. There's not room to sit up, but that's probably not a huge deal. My main concern is the length. If you're over 6 feet, this is not the tent for you.
Set up for the tent was great. I loved the clawlike clips that attached to the poles. They seemed to work very well. The fly doesn't have a huge vestibule, but probably enough for a pack and whatnot.
There's a vent, and a window also.
Like I said, I loved this tent, but it's just too short for me. I'm very disappointed about that. Had it not been, I'd have probably walked out of REI with one that day. :o
Hope that helps... not really a user review as much as general sizing info, but info nonetheless.
no, that does help. I'm about six feet. I'll probably set one up and go on inside to see how it fits.
Thanks!
