in short, love this tent for 1-2 people with a stove for most weather conditions (could easily fit 3-4 people with the stove)
the distance from rear door to stove is substantially more than with the NatureHike Sand Dune 7.6 hot tent which allows more easily fitting a 1-3P hiking tent inner (or kangaro tent) with still adequate rain protection when rear door is open.
the additional two large side windows would be useful on hot or humid days
there is sufficient room along the wall/door opposite the stove to place a single stretcher bed while still having a 1-3P hike tent occupying the rear of the tent
the optional “top deck” partial fly is well worth it - just hooks on with added option of velcro tabs to the poles and it has a blackened under-surface
- this means not as hot during the day
- a darker interior during day and on full moon nights which significantly improves privacy when using mesh windows
- less condensation on the inner ceiling as it should not get as cold
- protection from embers from chimney - easier to replace the top deck than the whole tent
- additional rain protection
- however, not sure how it will go in strong winds - you would definitely need to use the velcro tabs as well as the hooks
- also, you need to be careful with the top deck scrunched up against the hot chimney - make sure you are using a triple chimney guard or mesh guard to ensure it is safe

use a cheap 2.5x2m annex matting from Kmart for the front half and a 1.8×2.4m poly tarp for the rear half to sit under a 1-3P hiking style tent without its fly in the rear
