The Halo 4-P 4 Person Tent by Marmot has an innovative pole structure that provides excellent headroom and creates a uniquely livable tent for the outdoors. This four-person tent was constructed with a door vent and ground-level side vents for extra airflow when needed. The detailed, innovative design has zip open and close canopy panels, a full coverage fly that is fully seam taped to keep your tent dry, and two doors for added accessibility. The inside pockets keep gear off the floor, which is great, because the other campers you're sharing the tent with are messy, and you don't want them tramping all over your things.

Marmot designed a unique pole design to steepen the Halo 4-Person Tent's walls and increase usable living space for you and the rest of your family. This spacious tent includes several wall pockets to keep things organized, and the double vestibules provide shelter for anything that doesn't fit inside. Though Marmot designed this tent for family camping, they also included tough DAC press-fit poles, floor-level vents, and other features that you usually only see on expedition shelters.

Great tent for the size but I prefer my MSR Hubba Hubba

Rating:****
A boxer in our very small but awesome MSR was cramping our style so we got the Marmot Halo 4. Directions are terrible, setup is easy. 3 campers are more realistic and you can stand up. Packs small for a big tent but won’t backpack or kayak with it. Lots of pockets. Solid in wind. It looks cool, especially for a "family" sized tent. Ventilation is OK not as good as my MSR (spoiled?). Floor is thin, but it made it through 4 nights on gravel with a big dog in it and still looks new, so it will probably be ok. GET THE FOOTPRINT - tent won’t set up well without it, and you can do a set up with just it and the fly. Cool tent large enough for a small family or 2 people and a big dog!

A must

AWESOME! this tent sets up in 5-10 mins tops. simple and smart design things that i like • tent pole sleeves are continuous there's no split in the center top, eliminating the annoying stepping on the tent to get the pole into the other side process. • sweet coppery-looking poles don't have that stupid exterior collar at joints that gets tripped up in the pole sleeves • really high-quality materials and construction, zippers and fabrics and seems are mmmmmm, nice! • perfect pockets and vents, in all the right places • looks bad-a with the fly on, colors are great • very spacious, so when you're mad at your BF/GF, they can sleep farther away from you • pumkin-y-looking perfect for those octob

buy it!

Rating:*****
This tent is very roomy, and a snap to put up. We love the entrances from both sides. Lots of pocket on the walls or glasses, contacts ect. The free foot print is very nice. We used it with snow 8 inches on the ground, not to windy though. The poles are very sturdy. My 12 year old told us to get this tent. It was rated very high in some back packing magazine. I like the color! Its very tall you can almost stand up in it. Which is nice. I am 5' 10 an Hubby a little taller so it worked well!

Great tent

Rating:*****

Bought this tent for car camping, so weight wasn't an issue. Set up is a breeze. Up in 3 mins between two people, 5 minutes with only one person. No condensation at all. A feature that is not mentioned here is the 'stake tape.' The strip of fabric where you put the stake doesn't have one hole. It has multiple ones all along. It lets you place the stake at any point. Gives you a lot of flexibility. I would def. buy again.

Kiddies can set it up!

Rating:*****

I've used this tent several times in southern China leading rural backcountry hikes with teenagers. It goes up in a flash, is hassle free, and is warm on chilly nights. It says its a four person tent but there is room for 5 or 6 smaller people. The vestibules are HUGE!
Rain doesn't stand a chance against this behemoth if it is guyed properly.

This is the Mona Lisa of tents

Rating:*****
This tent is the real deal. I have been able to use it twice in the two weeks I have owned it. This tent sets up in 5 to 10 minutes and weighs hardly anything. It has numerous vents and you wake up in the morning without that awkward tent smell you usually get. I highly recommend this tent.

No regrets

Rating:*****
This tent is freaking awsome, after wasting my money on cheap pieces of crap, I finally splurged, and am sure glad I did. When properly set up this tent is rock solid, plenty of room and pockets to keep gear out of the way

Ooh la la!

Rating:*****
This tent rocks! It is so easy to set up and a breeze to put away. I love it. It is way spacious enough for me and the three kids. I love the color. I have absolutely no complaints about this baby.

very good tent - need to figure out the draft.

Rating:****
It was very roomy - a real 4 person. easy to put up. we had a slight draft - we may not have had the top sheet on correctly. it rained very hard, the tent handled the rain very well.
