One drawback is the lack of guidelines and stakes. You may want to consider purchasing some extras, just to keep the tent more secure.
Compression
This tent can be compressed down using its compression bag. It has a functional handle that can be used to squeeze down the tent further. This is great for hikers and backpackers looking for a small tent to fit into their backpacks.
