Poor manufacturing quality

HI, I am very disappointed by the lack of seriousness in the manufacturing of the poles of this tent: none of the aluminum sleeves were correctly glued into the carbon poles. I was lucky to be able to repair it, otherwise it would have cost me the summit.

Great little bivvy tent

I have not used the tent for it’s true purpose of mountaineering, but it has served as a great all around tent. I’m 6’2” and it’s not very roomy but I make it work with my pack and my boots. I think MSR nailed it with the design and the simplicity of the pitch. My only complaint is that they don’t have any vestibule add ons like the black diamond single wall tents have, otherwise this tent is a great bare minimum all around shelter that’ll keep you safe in any conditions.

Great Background Tent

Easy and quick to set up. It's packs tight and doesn't add much weight to your pack. Ideal tent for backcountry expeditions in any season. It breaths well in dry/cold conditions. I did end up with condensation and water collecting in the corners during a couple of humid days at altitude in the snow. Bring a sponge for those days. The light self-supporting frame makes it easy to shake out dirt.

Carbon poles failed

My daughter and I were thrilled to purchase two of the Advance Pro tents. We are small women and not overly muscular and we were very careful setting them up. However, both of us had splitting of the carbon poles the first time we used our tents. We were very, very disappointed! The poles should be strong enough for normal use!

Best Tent I've Ever Owned

Waterproof, windproof, snow-proof, fits anywhere, good ventilation, lightweight, quick setup & breakdown, freestanding, size allows it to retain heat in winter, perfect for one person + gear, size and shape allow for easy pitch while others struggle to find a suitable spot for their tents, nice aesthetic

Bad in rain

The Advance Pro is my 2nd MSR. I loved it until I encountered rain last weekend. For the price and the quality; I was not worried till I started getting drips over my head and little puddles on each corners. Disappointed

MSR Advance Pro 2

It's a great 4 season tent for short people. I'm 6'2"" so I have a 6'6"" inside length winter sleeping bag. Consider 8 inches of down insulation for a winter sleeping bag. 78 inches for the inside of the bag plus 16 inches (2 x 8 inches) for insulation is 94 inches. 94 inches or the sleeping bag is squished against the tent wall and it's cold. This tent is 82 inches long. Not even close. Does anyone make a light long 4 season tent like this for taller people? C'mon MSR help us out!

Good for moderate to light-extreme mountaineering!

I've camped on dirt, gravel, and snow with this tent--each time it proves to be exceptional in keeping out water, wind, and the cold. It's light and packs well and provides good ventilation to cook in during rainy days (I'd keep the door 3/4 open if I'm cooking multiple meals to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning). There are some small things I did not like, for example, I'm not a fan of how the door opens. The top-down opening causes a lot of snow and water to drip into the tent. It is small for a 2-man, but perfect for an alpine 1-man. I'm also wondering whether its possible to buy an add-on vestibule. Overall an exceptional tent. I'd recommend it.

Excellent but take care about guy lines

We camped with 2 of such tents on altitudes 4500m to 6400m. We was 3 person, so we had one tent with 2 person and one - with 1 person. Occupancy: this tent is best for 1 person. In this case you have enough space for all your gear, cooking etc. It is possible to sleep 2 person, but make sure you understand what are you doing. We found it is better sleep in a manner when one lying head to the exit and another - in opposite direction. Otherwise, shoulders are too wide to comfortable fit into the tent width. Also, no space for gear or whatever remains. Be prepared to put all yous stuff - rucksack, harness, extra cloths etc - all beneath your sleeping mat, helmet in the corner near legs, stove next to your head etc. Perhaps have one bag with gear outside tent. We stored extra gear from tent with 2 person in the other tent where single person slept. Pitching: very easy. Small footprint reduces amount of work to be done to prepare surface. Easy to find large enough place for tent. Condensation: none at all or very small. Even with completely closed entrance. Taking into account 2 person in a tent and quite low temperature (-20C) it is excellent. Overall, it is very comfortable to stay in a tent. Wind: when properly fixed using guy-lines, tent is very stable and even strong wing (>50km/h) does not make a problems. Some snow penetrates into tent with a wind through the mesh on the ventilation opening, not much. However be careful with guy-points in the center of the tent faces. If overloaded, it may broke (see photo). Not sure if it is tent defect of normal situation. Summary: excellent tent for high mountains. Best for 1 person, can be used for 2. Some care should be taken

Small but mighty

This was the perfect tent for a multi day ski mountaineering trip. To echo the previous reviews: super light weight, fits on the tiniest of sites, sets up and takes down in an instant, this is where you want to be when the weather is blowing, the floor space is exactly two foam pads side by side: fine for two 5' 9"" slim guys who don't mind rubbing shoulders, traps warmth but also moisture (a camp towel was handy for wiping down the walls).
