And with respect to needing the fly to keep it dry, we've found that not to be true as
well. We have sat out a large number of storms under our peaked roof without the need for a tarp over the top or the fly. Stays completely water proof.
The only place where I have had an issue with water was in the back right hand corner when you look at the tent from the front, as I had pulled the bottom section way to taught and was actually stretching the seam... that was my mistake :-)
What we have found is in sub 5 degree regions where there is a heavy frost or it is just bleeping cold :-), the fly does stop the condensation from forming.
We love this tent and highly recommend it to anyone. We have all the bits and bobs, delux front, peak sides, the fly and love it. Our friends are all jealous that we are always warmer or cooler (compared to the nylon\whatever tents they have) and that it takes my wife 2 minutes to have the main tent up and pegged, and 10 minutes later the sides and front is on....
