We have arrived back home after 9 days in Quetico.  Many lakes and miles under our canoe bottoms.  My REI 4 person dome tent did well.  We took a total of four tents for eight people.  Two Northface 4 person domes, our REI 4 person dome and a solo for my son.  Our tent did the best out of all four.  

We had rain three times, heavy.  Our tent did well.  It was very inexpensive compared to some tents I looked at.  We are pleased with the gear we brought.  

We absolutely were thankful that we took a tarp and used it.  Rain at breakfast two mornings and we could still get out of the tent.  Our tarp made it possible.  

The footprint on our tent tends to be a pain.  I ordered it with the tent and it seems a bit too loose, but no water so it must work okay.

Good luck to all tent purchasers in the future.
