Head out into the wilderness for some 3-season camping with a friend and don't worry about who has to carry the tent - Marmot's Zonda 2P Tent is only four pounds and five ounces at the max. Stay comfortable the night through with the vertical, no-drip sidewall and catanary floor that keeps moisture out - all while you keep the creepy crawlies outside where they belong with the no-seeum-netting.

Features:

  • Easily assemble the single-pole knees system with Stake Tape
  • If you need additional protection from the ground, use the optional footbprint
  • Keep dry through the night with the no drip walls - one of which is a vertical sidewall, and the catanary cut floor as it keeps ground moisture at bay
  • Should you carry a lot of gear, attach the optional gear loft for greater stowage capacity
  • When you need to travel ultra-light, assemble the Bare Bones Setup

Marmot created the Zonda 2-Person 3-Season Tent for backpackers who want a lightweight design but don't want to sacrifice their comfort in camp. Though it weighs only 4lb 8oz, the Zonda Tent increases usable floor space with steep walls and includes a 9sq foot vestibule for dry storage. Pole clips make this double-wall Marmot tent quick and easy to pitch. A unique pole design makes the walls steep enough that you can sit up nearly anywhere in the Zonda Tent, so moving around inside won't be such a hassle.

"Great tent for the money. East to set up. Stuffs small."

Rating:****
I, unfortunately, had to purchase this tent from another site as it was out of stock here at the time. It's a great tent. Still a bit small for two people, but it's light and roomy for one. My only complaint is that I set it up this weekend and it rained hard on us. The rainfly did seem to let in some of the moisture--not enough to pool up anywhere, but a few drops nontheless. I guess I should seal the rainfly before going out next time.

Great tent a little tight for the fit!
But I LIKE HOW IT SETS UP EASY!

I used it for summer ski mountaineering in the cascades of washington!

Poor Customer Service

Rating:*

If you ever plan to deal with the customer service, do not buy Marmot Tents. I sent them mine about 6 months ago (my tent has a lifetime warranty). After 5 years and about 5 2-3 day hikes per year the seam tapes started to go off. After 2 months I called them to find out that they received the tent and would replace it. I wasn’t happy, since they no longer produced a single person tent for a 6ft tall person, but said OK. 2 months later I called and was told that my tent had mildew and would not be repaired or replaced. They offered me to buy a net tent at a discount. The cheapest I could find would have cost me over a $100. I said NO, I want my old tent back. They said they would ship it. 2 months later – no tent. I called them and the guy named Fry told me they still have my old tent in their office.
By the way, I dried my tent after every backpack and didn’t see any mildew when I sent it.

Neutral Reviews:

A bit too small.

Rating:***

This tent is fantastic if you don't plan to sleep two people in it, and you always have a car or secondary place for the storage of you gear because the vestibule space is entirely inadequate. Also, My fiance is 5'1" and I am 5'9". This said, we both had trouble sleeping in it. I am an avid climber and love backpacking and despite this we still had trouble with the size of this tent. Overall, the tent is fantastic quality but it is comparably smaller then any other two-person tent with which I have had experience.
