Does anyone have any experience with this company ?

I'm considering purchasing the Minipeak Pyramid Tent (2P) with the optional one person inner tent.

The price point is certainly tempting, but I'm wondering if anyone has used these and could attest to the quality?

Thanks

Sorry, I can not address the quality issue .

I considered pyramid tents but the low angled walls compromise usable space too much for my tripping style.

I've had the Sil Hexpeak V4 for a few years now. Picked it up on eBay, so it was technically used, but it had never actually been used. Quality is on par with any of my other tents. It's similar to my Nemo Meta 1, except I like the Luxe better. I've only taken it to the BWCA once (have since switched to a hammock up there) but have used it on a few occasions elsewhere.

I did seal the seams when I got it, but I do that with all of my tents.

I will say, at just shy of 5'11", I feel that I'm about the max height for the single person inner tent.

Thanks for the info Elgin! I'm 5' 10", and was worried about the length. I already have a tent I use solo, but this looks like an interesting second option.
