Reasons NOT to buy:

User Reviews

  • The overall packed size is large, so you may need to distribute the weight between multiple people.
  • The tent might be more suited for 3 people to use comfortably, since 4 people is a tight fit.

Expert Reviews

  • The ceiling height is lower than other 4-person tents.
  • The weight is slightly heavier for backpacking, since it comes in at just over 10 pounds.
  • The tent could use some additional interior storage for more gear and backpacks.
  • The tent does not come with enough stakes and guy-lines for right-away use.

Summary:

The Marmot Limestone Tent: 4-Person 3-Season is a protective, spacious, and easy-to-use option that works well for 3-4 people during car camping trips. Although this tent is a bit heavy for backpacking trips and a bit snug for four people to lounge comfortably, this tent works well for frequent car campers and weekend-trippers.
