Sierra Designs Nomad 6 Review

"We were in the market for an excellent 3 season family tent, and found one in the Nomad 6. The tent has excellent proportions for sleeping 6 and the two large vestibules are great. The interior has plentiful headroom (6') and many storage pouches which worked out well for my 3 small kid's nic-nacs. The first time we used it the sky opened up on us and dumped 2+ that evening, plus it hailed! We all stayed dry and I didn't sealed the seams before the trip. The following two days the weather stayed basically the same, but not as intense. The inside of the tent never got wet. I do recommend using the extra/optional ties for the fly. being such a large tent and the amount of rain we experienced the fly sagged slightly in the middle on the sides. Minor, minor con given ALL of the pros. Overall a great/serious family tent."

"This is a solid tent. It is simple to set up. Lots of room and great little features like the cup holders and tons of gear pockets. Our first night in it was in a HUGE rain/thunder/lightening storm. We slept blissfully only to awaken to news of multiple tornadoes in the area during the night. Scarey situation but great tent."
